First time I’ve opened my laptop in what seems like weeks… Odd. I’ve been watching a lot of movies, working, generally in hibernation mode. It’s a good time to hibernate as it snowed here last week.
Just watched ‘Amelie’ – what a freaking awesome film! Highly recommended. Feel-good city without the mush or sentimentality.
Last night I saw ‘Lost in Translation’. Yep, it was lost on me, either that or Coppola Jnr intended it to be two hours of self indulgent, arrogant, borderline xenophobic beastliness. Two thirds of the way through the film I realised that I was trapped in a camouflaged rom-com. I don’t mind slow films, some of the best films I have seen move at a slow pace, but I am accustomed to something actually happening. Take evasive action at all costs. Wait for the DVD to come out if you’re still curious.
