I just watched Nói Albínói and I liked it sooo much! It has my favorite type of lighting throughout the whole picture, this eerie blue glow. I love when my house is lit up blue by the sky. And man it's funny! And man it's sad! A boy named Nói lives in Iceland, is an Albino, drinks malts at the gas station, makes fun of Kierkegaard, shoots at massive icicles with a rifle, and digs graves in the frozen ground for a living!
Clearly, I am good at writing movie reviews. I should do this for a living. First I'll start on Amazon.com and Netflix and work my way up to whatever newspaper or magazine is renowned for their movie reviews. I wouldn't know! I don't really like to read them! I don't like to write them either! Sometimes I just turn up the heat in this little room, pile on the thermal blankets and heavy sweaters, turn off nearly all the lights, and watch whatever Netflix has sent me in the mail. And sometimes the things I get are pretty terrible [Quadrophenia, The Secret of Roan Inish (I hate seals now! There is a mug I used to drink hot cocoa out of that is from Sea World and has some seals on it, and it makes me physically ill just to see it! Luckily the disgust is just with seals and not Donegal, Ireland because I would not be able to handle that.), Bedknobs and Broomsticks (I swore it was better), A Walk To Remember, et cetera]. But then I watch something really beautiful and it makes me happy that someone has created something so lovely. It makes me want to create something beautiful so that someone else gets a good feeling.
I wish I could take stills of films, but I've tried and I am incapable. So these subpar ones will have to do.
I am actually so sad about random things like
threeinatree.net's semi-death, maura's semi-quitting school and life, the emotional status of my family at large, the fact that I still don't have a job & still have no great desire to do anything certain/concrete with my life (sort of untrue). But there is much to be happy about and much to celebrate about! I am alive and breathing and people I love are living and breathing. And the temperatures are reaching the sixties again! Hooray!
the end.
