Worth dying for. Worth killing for. Worth going to hell for. Amen.
I propose that the best way to describe Sin City is, "Hell yes, ladies". The newspaper said that, "...its stylish violence couldn't disguise its shameful nihilistic themes". I say that it was, "...like a birthday party for Manliness".
The cast party later that day was interesting. It was like any cast party at first, but with more people. Big Twister games. I'm sure I'd have enjoyed it more if I wasn't so tired. Anyway, we started to move in on the cake at around 11, but were diverted by someone's desire to give a toast. Which in turn led to another toast, and then to a speech, and then another, and another, until almost everyone had had their fill. Some people went back for seconds. Everyone was crying, at first because some people were saying they'd miss us graduating seniors, and then because people were revealing how they'd never been as close to anyone as they are to the people they've met in this play. It would feel dirty and voyueristic to reprint some of the deeply personal things that were said, but it's enough to say that everyone was crying. I drove my girls home an hour and a half late each.
Today, my uncle Joe came in. He'll be here for a week with his wife Carry and three kids. He'll come and see Bang Bang this week at some point. He's pretty cool, a fact I think is best summed up in this annecdote (which you've all heard): He was driving us back to my grandmother's house from the airport; my parents, my sister, and I; and my dad asked him, "So how are the wife and kids?" To which he replied, "Every day is a day closer to death." Today, while I was going for the Nutella in the pantry, I walked in on this conversation he was having with his wife.
Joe: EAT THIS GOLFISH! (throws it at her)
Carry: I don't WANT to eat the goldfish. (throws it back)
Rebecca: This is an abusive relationship.
Me: Do you beat your wife, Uncle Joe?
Joe: No! Carry, do I beat you?
Carry: (looks down) Only when I deserve it.
They're like some sort of deadpan comedic tag team. If I didn't know they were joking, it might be a little scary. But they kind of snicker after all their jokes. I'm just snickering because Kasey is apprehensive about meeting him. Heheh. Just 'cause he made kids cry when they first met him, on multiple occassions... She's giving him too much credit. Those kids were wusses anyways.
