Crank

I watched a movie today
it was about drugs, revenge, and murder
and the sexual objectification of women
among other things: sexism is alive and well

The female charater,
while not one of the hookers, strippers
or inside a small clear bubble
splattered with blood

Stops at one point muttering
oh no i forgot to take my birth control
while he is manishly pushing her
out of the way of the bullets

You know she is just there for the
sex scene, that you keep waiting for
and ends up right on the street in
Chinatown, a bus stops to watch

It is of interest to note that it was written
in 4 days, by guys wanting only a script they
could use with thier cinematographic ideas
The best part he runs around bareassed in a hospital gown
