On the appeal of older men to younger women: Look at Roosevelt, look at Churchill, look at old fella what's his name in The African Queen.

It would also explain why I just dreamt about him and Elijah Wood making out.

that is up there with the dream i had where carl barat and nick zinner made out in terms of hotness. GOSH.

[aquandrian]

Oy! Totally!!

We are such perverts. Even when we're not even trying.

[heythatscool]

LOLZ i know, what is that??!!? i'm waiting for the day i have a dream about ryan ross making out with someone, that will be terrifying, because even though he's a year older than me, he makes me feel like a pedo for even thinking he's hot, because he looks like he's about 8 most of the time, lolz.

[aquandrian]

Ahhhhhhhhhhh just what I said not so long ago to Z about Lij!! And she had to remind me he's like 25 now!

Dude, there are no mysteries like our minds. *lol*

still haven't seen Brick, must put it into netflix queue.

i liked schatze too. in fact, that whole film was one of my childhood favorites. (i was a betty grable fan.) marilyn with or without glasses was glorious.

[aquandrian]

Yeah, I'll be very interested to see what you think of Brick. Have you been warned about the language yet?

Me toooooooooo ... childhood fav, I mean. Not so much with the Betty Grable but on this last viewing (I bought it too) I was mildly shocked at the lewd things she said. *lol*

Gaahhhhhhhh, I love Marilyn with glasses! I only wish they weren't quite so cats eye cos otherwise, man, would I be iconising them in a flash. She's so freaking amazing. *sigh* I'm this close to setting my mind to a Marilyn collection.

[daisydumont]

maybe you mentioned language when we talked about it before. very rough?

oh yes, marilyn was wonderful. i loved her in her movies.

[aquandrian]

Ah see, no, not rough. Just jargon. The movie totally has a language of its own but if you don't get put off immediately, you totally understand what's being said. Stick with it is what I'm saying. :p The rewards are pretty awesome in terms of cinematography and plot and emotion.

Is your icon from mysterious skin? I watched it last night, not bad.

[aquandrian]

Brick actually but you've just reminded me I own no Mysterious Skin icons. Such a bloody excellent film and the book's even better. Glad you liked it. :p

[aquandrian]

Oooooooooooohhh, have you read her autobiography? You've totally just reminded me that I've been meaning to for ages.

Curiosity, curiosity.

Have you seen a lot of her stuff? Cos I wonder where to start ...

[aquandrian]

Gawwwww, you are so right ...

Oooh, okay. I shall look for these at my Awesome Alternative Video Store when I get back to Sydney. Ta! ♥
