Jesus' Son

It was interesting to see how Alison McLean depicted different variations of taboo topics in American society through her film Jesus; Son. The film gave the viewer a sense of delision that enticed one into the very same delisional formatted plot of the film. Portraying characters who suffered from drug addiction (being a internal self inflicted oppresion) and dealing with external pressures like that of having an abortion, all of the characters in the film had one basic need, the need to find their own personal ideology.
The audience gets caught up in the halucinations that the protagonisthas throughout the film making it hard to follow. The plot is all over the place making it difficult to pin point what the major or key problem is, until the evolving of the story makes it clear. Drug addiction. Drug addiction makes all of the characters suffer from their self inflicted exploitation and it is very interesting to see that being portrayed from a woman director's point of view.
