Just came back from The Wrestler. Interesting character study. Not a bad flick... not sure if it's a great flick either, though. Sad that all of the hoopla around Mickey Rourke upstaged the excellent performance by Marisa Tomei.

My little sister just bought The Women (2008) on DVD. I think I'm going to cry.

We saw Seven Pounds yesterday. I don't understand why people are saying it has a suprise ending. It was obvious from about a third of the way in. Once I figured out what the "obvious" ending was going to be, I watched the rest of the movie anticipating the twist I thought was coming. When the "obvious" ending became the real ending, without any twists, I was very disappointed.

Oh, nobody cares what anybody says these days. Oh, you remember those AWFUL things they said about ol' whats-her-name just before she jumped out of that window? See, I can't even remember her name so who cares Edith?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.....

Will. Not. Respond.

Will. Not. Give. In. To. Temptation.

Hadn't heard of this, looks intriguing. And that opening bit of music in the trailer is from one of my favorite artists, The Knife.

LSPE and I saw the short this was based on a few years ago, as part of the Oscar-nominated shorts program. It was good. There's a link to it on the trailer page.

I've recently watched two Italian movies from Netflix so it is no surprise that among the recommendations on the home page currently are more Italian films.

Here's a screenshot. You may notice a certain theme to the move posters.

Spoiler:




Just goes to show that automated recommendation engines are still lacking. I'm definitely a breast man rather than an ass guy.
