Subject: REAL REASON BEHIND TITLE
Date: Nov 24, 2004
Gus Van Sant named the film after a film of the same name by Alan Clarke, about juvenile violence. Clarke used to say "violence is as easy to ignore as having an elephant in a classroom". In other words you cant hide such a big problem...you cant hide an elephant.
There. stop making dumb assumptions. it is a fcking great movie, one of the qualities is that it doesnt try to explain why these things happen, they just happen. and John Robinson is a SEXY motha' fucka'!!!!!

Re: Why
it's called elephant because it's the elephant in the closet.. that no one wants to ever discuss.. this movie was meant to bring it to the table.. get people to actually confront the issue
