HOME. I want to do a properer Halloween post but I am tired after driving 600 miles and I still feel like someone punched me in the lip. I think I drunkenly bit the inside in my sleep??? on Friday night. When I woke up complaining that my mouth hurt, April was all, A LIKELY SIDE EFFECT OF YAOI CON!!!! lolol So then I shelved the comment about how much my hands hurt from hauling sharp-edged crates of Smirny all over the hotel sobbb sob son of a bitch I am still in pain
Late latelate Halloween night we all watched UP on my lap top. The version I have is very strange as the audio is dece but text is partially in French, so from time to time I had to translate: "Thanks for the adventure. Looking forward to the next one!" That is the portion that always gets me misty, the one where Frederickson leaves all his memorabilia on the clifftop so that his house might float again. This movie is intensely personal, someone's very real and real-world pain met and solved, dream-like, by a cheerful five-year-old. Which gives it a living, shining soul. Rare these days! I think we are all tired of Wacky Sidekicks, which Pixar, for one, either reinvents or leaves out entirely. Disney itself, conversely, has been rife since 90s. I blame Robin Williams in Alladdin, who played his part so well and so fittingly (pop-culture is not out of place with all-powerful Genies lol) that every movie since has tried to imitate his energy by hiring, like. Chris Rock. Or Danny DeVito. GET ON THE HYDRA'S BACK.
