Keep Twitter for this class! Made participation so much easier since we had so many aggressive talkers #NELC119

@ncal24 why would he even bring up the issue at all? couldn't the other themes in the film stand alone without it? #nelc119 #walkonwater

Eyal and Pia's marriage doesn't satisfy my want for forgiveness--it seems so set up the forgiveness as fake #nelc119 #walkonwater

also, Eyal and Pia? Really? Why do all the loose ends in relationships have to get tied up? Seemed pretty contrived #nelc119 #walkonwater

I was actually pretty disappointed with Axel's tone by the end of the film. Dashed my hopes for forgiveness and sent mixed messages #nelc119

Axel like a half-Christ figure (with the purification, acceptance) until the very end when the ultimate forgiveness isn't there #nelc119

Does the structure of the three different stories influence the way we as viewers understand the characters? #nelc119 #theedgeofheaven

How does the portrayal of European-Middle Eastern relations compare to the films we've already watched so far? #nelc119 #theedgeofheaven

as viewers we get comfortable being the judge and picking sides until we realize there's a scene we totally missed #nelc119 #aseparation

would simin have gotten into legal trouble if she elaborated on the "circumstances"? #nelc119 #aseparation

#aseparation is just one big blame game #nelc119

comparing #redheart and #microphone is tough, but both highlight idiosyncrasies of the state and its laws and regulations #nelc119

not only did Shirin seem limited by her society/religion, but she also just came off as naive and stupid #nelc119 #redheart

the loneliness is suffocating for the viewer just like Yusuf is suffocating to Mahmut #NELC119 #distant

can someone besides Termeh please give Mr. Lavansi a break!? #NELC119FILM #aseparation

oh, and exhaustion too #NELC119FILM #aseparation

complete, utter frustration #NELC119FILM #aseparation

no sound taking out an emotional aspect, but does this subtraction make the emotion of the Super 8 stronger by creating a chasm? #NELC119

watching Tareq watching the massacre without saying anything is so frustrating...classic bystander effect #NELC119 #westbeirut

peeping into spaces representative of coming of age? Tareq first watches seduction from afar, then he is welcomed into the brothel #NELC119
