this is what the world is coming to

So I'm sitting in the JC Cinema at GMU, waiting to watch a movie for class. The Chinese movie "To Live" depicts the struggles of one family as they endure tumultuous events in China as their personal fortunes move from wealthy landownership to peasantry. In one of the periods of the movie the lead character is forced into the Nationalist Army. In this scence three men are huddled together in a bunker, trying not to freeze to death. One of the men disappears and comes back with blankets and jackets stolen from the deceased. As they are covering themselves and trying to stay warm, that same man brings out a flask of alcohol that he swiped from a deceased General. As I'm watching these men on screen passing the flask around, indulging in one of their greatest pleasures, yet still trying stay warm... I start to feeling sad. Sad because they were cold and alone and tired... but mostly sad because they didn't have a Snuggie. They really could have used one.
