The Portrait of a Lady

[kattahj]

I just got back from the student film studio, for the third time in four days. This time I was lucky: I liked The Portrait of a Lady very much. Even cried a bit. Checking rottentomatoes.com before I went, I found a lot of bad reviews, but seeing the film, I found it both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally touching

just surfing around randomly at toher swedish peoples journals your icon was funny is it from buffy?

Thanks! And no, not technically. It's from the season 2 Angel episode "Untouched", as Angel and Cordelia have the following conversation:

Cordelia: No think, pay! That's an order!
Angel: Hey, how about we pretend that you work for me.
Cordelia: You are really unpleasant in the morning.
Angel: They why don't we pretend that you don't.
Cordelia: You can't fire me; I'm Vision Girl! (sticks out tongue)

The quote on the icon is from "Drive My Car" with the Beatles, a song I find particularly Cordelia-like.

*lol* thats hilarous, I like the season one of angel that are on now

Yeah, they're nice. I'm pretty nostalgic about the season 1 stuff - it's pretty uncomplicated compared to the latter seasons. On the other hand, the dark soap opera world the show later becomes is quite delicious too.

hehe i havent seen anything more than 2 episodes froms eason two not sure if tv 4 want to buy the other seasons though

Considering how long it took them to show this season, and how they treated the Buffy eps, I wouldn't holdmy breath. I guess I'm lucky to live far enough south to have caught the show on Danish TV.
