Saw my first movie in ... could it be months? No, I saw "This is 40" a few weeks ago. Anyway, it was "Uncle Boonmee Who Recalls His Past Lives."

Really, really wish I'd just read a summary of it by someone who got it. A one to two paragraph one. Jesus.

I feel I did get it but who knows, right. Restoration to the two things that are ever happening, which soon enough become one thing. We multiply ourselves to get away from that. Shiny lights and whatnot.

Maybe my attention span was enlarged therapeutically or something. I did stop making up conversations and personalities for the woolgathering characters about halfway in, but possibly that was just my cerebellum flickering out.

No, I saw at least two others since the term started: a bad low-budget one about cults called I forget what and Croupier, which I've seen on video stores for like fifteen years and always very slightly wanted to see. Mostly because they were advancing something very boring as a selling point - I find hatchecking a more interesting job.

It is very silly. One of my first inklings that the 90s were very silly, or anyway just how we're going to look back on the '90s as a silly place whether so or no. Benny and Joon will be an epicenter.

Amusing. The other night we watched Neighbors. I asked Cristina how could that really be a two-hour movie. I would've burned down the frat house 5 minutes into that scenario. Good neighbor that I am.
