I seriously think if there weren't a wonderful Ennis/Jack universe by goddess
madlori, I'd still be bawling my eyes out. I'd seen the movie on my pc and I thought I had already cried enough, but I was wrong. I didn't cry in some parts that I did before I saw it in a theater, but once I started crying with the DECEASED stamped on the postcard, I just kept crying and crying. I wasn't the only one who was crying though. I could hear people sniffling and wiping their eyes. I'm one of those people who leave before the end-roll. But I stayed this time till the very end. I was glued on my seat.
One of the things I was very surprised was that there were more people than I thought there'd be. Although I wish there were, but we don't have the movie's TV commercial and although I've seen the mag articles here and there, the movie isn't all that much advertised or promoted. But I'm glad that I went the first show in the morning; otherwise, I may have ended up watching the show standing. And another thing which surprised me more was that there were tons of male audiences. I was expecting to see women in 20's and 30's, but most of the audiences were middle-aged married couples, older men in groups and few women coming to see by herselves like me.
I found a seat between two married-looking older couples and I was actually got nervous to see some intimate scenes. I wanted to get 'engrossed' on the screen, but I couldn't and I was waiting for some bad comments or sighs from them... but I heard none. I guess they knew what they were seeing and I'm glad 'we' were all well behaved.
And god, Heath's hot. Jake is too, but I always went for Heath.
Today, I ended up spending $50 worth of BBM related goods. One of them is two copies of magazines with special BBM booklet. I wanted to put every page on the wall and in order to put /every/ page I had to get two. Oh well, no eating out for lunch this week. That's for sure.
