I don't feel particularly pervy today. Hmm..

~o~

I have only seen No Country for Old Men out of the movies nominated for best picture. I enjoyed it very muchly. Granted it was strange watching it at 9 in the morning on a Monday, but that was it's only showing at the film festival. I think a bit too much has been made about the ending of the ( Read more... )

Keira Knightly was in Love Actually.

No offense, but you fail at Pervy Fridays. ;)

Please keep in mind that your beta is writing her thesis and may not be able to beta your chapter until she graduates. So no rush! :(

Cormac McCarthy is really popular where I come from since he used to live in El Paso. I've never read any of his stuff though, because I'm not interested in what he writes. It's neat that he writes about the area I'm familiar with, though.

My Beta has a higher calling than editing my stuff. I more than understand.

I am really not as pervy as a stereotypical male should be. Thinking about sex is one thing. Writing about it on lj isn't the same thing at all.

I hadn't heard of McCarthy until this movie. But that's because I don't exactly keep my ear to the ground in regards to authors who win pulitzers. :|

And I was wrong about Keira. Serves her right for not returning my calls :-p

Well he also wrote "All the Pretty Horses". I think they made that into a film. It was an Oprah book club book as well, but I don't think you keep your ear to the ground in regard to that either. ;)

Well I'd say a majority of what Keira does is period pieces. I love her in the Pirates trilogy. She was okay in Pride and Prejudice (though it was nothing on the A&E version). I think she's cooler all badass with a sword. Chicks with swords, how I long to be one someday. ;)

Thanks for understanding. By all means, go on business as usual. I'll let you know if I have to delay it.

You have a lot going on-I think it is amazing that you have time to write at all! I am finding that a huge challenge right now.

I saw Juno and it was great-I would definitely recommend checking it out-music in it is amazing. I think the Coen brothers will win for directing NCfOM. Is there controversy about the ending? As you know, I don't get out much so had not heard. The Coen brothers are never 'easy' though, you aren't getting the 'Transformers' experience from them, and I hope by now most people know that.
