I hate you, Gemini Cricket.





I keep telling myself that so I won't fall apart. I've no idea why your leaving town has hit me so hard.


Anyway, I'm very sad that it may turn out the last time I will have seen you before you go was at your going away party. That may seem appropriate, but we talked about it not being the last time, and I was hoping it wouldn't be.



I know you're leaving Tuesday .... but, whatcha doin' Monday night?

Masturbating?

So, I watched it again today.
Call me a glutton for punishment.
I loved it again.
Great film.

I noticed one thing I hadn't before. It was Dan White checking out a TV crewman after the morning talk show spot that he and Milk finished up. I couldn't find any other reason for the shot and why he looked.

I really, really love the scene where he and Scott talk on the phone one last time. It hit me harder this time than last time.

I hated one moment in the film. The Cleve Jones "I'm calling one friend and he'll call another and another" moment where a gay male Mormon Brady Bunch pops up on screen. It's a weird moment that should have been cut.

I needed a good cry and this fit the bill. It's amazing how much of a tear-jerker this flick is. It was the first show of the day, half full house and everyone was blubbering like babies. Wonderful.

I saw it tonight and loved it. Totally cried when Milk was talking on the phone for the first time to the boy in the wheelchair.

And James Franco..... it is absolutely impossible for him not to look hot.

I didn't mind that terribly (oddly enough, when the dishware Brady Bunch shows up in Beauty and the Beast, I refuse to watch it.)

But I did mind the Jack Lira character. I presume they intended to show what an utterly frustrating pain in the ass he was, and they very much succeeded in that; I cringed so much whenever he was onscreen (and I love Diego Luna, typically, so that was a surprise.) I was so cringed out that by the time he, you know, had his last scene, I couldn't feel a lot for him.

Oh, I thought he got clingy-crazy just right. I've dated a few of those boys.

Finally saw the movie on I-Tunes. I liked it well enough, but it seemed unusually low-talky on my computer--a problem I have not had before.

Was it a low-talky movie on the big screen?

I didn't have that problem, although I watched it on Dish on demand hehe. I thought it was one of the best films I'd seen ever. Period. So well done. I hate coming to the party late but that's my lot in life.

What the heck is low-talky?

I dunno, but I like the way it sounds when you say it out loud.

I'm guessing it's when the dialogue is hard to hear throughout and it just seems like everyone is mumbling the whole time? I use closed captioning a lot at home. I like to know exactly what's being said. No likey low-talky. (If I am right about what it means)
