I picked up this movie called Ran by Akira Kurosawa. I'm really looking forward to watching it. Supposedly, it is Kurosawa's rendition of Shakespeare's King Lear. It looks promising. I've been going through this fit of watching old movies. I'm talking OLD movies like back to the 50's. It's not just foreign films, either. Are these old movies just that much better than current films? I watched The Exorcism of Emily Rose tonight. It was based on a true story. My friends thought it was great, but I thought it was okay at best. Why am I so pessimistic?

I'm falling asleep in my chair right now. I need to go to sleep, but I really want to stay up and type. I guess I'll postpone the rest of my post until tomorrow night. Stay tuned for Ran Ronnie Ran Part 2 tomorrow.
