Blow

Blow elicits strong emotional responses primarily centered around the tragic arc of George Jung's life. Audiences experience significant Sadness and Melancholy as they witness his ultimate downfall, the loss of his family, and the profound regret that defines his later years. Anxiety is high due to the constant peril and high stakes of the drug trade, while Empathy is felt for George's initial motivations and his deep, unfulfilled Love for his daughter. Anger may arise from betrayals, the harsh realities of the justice system, or George's self-destructive choices. The film's depiction of the drug world and its consequences also evokes a sense of the Disturbing.
