Coupla' Movies
Against my better judgement, I was forced to watch 'The Notebook ' at Kyla's new place. I had sworn off the viewing of all love stories as I find them to be detrimental to my already too slow disolving of my desires.
Oh well. I have to support good Canadian kids Rachel and Ryan. They both delivered fine performances and I expect both actors will only get bigger and better with time.
For a three and a half months late birthday present, Kyla gave me 'Cinema Paradiso', 1989's Best Foreign Film Oscar Winner. It is a fantastic film. Viva Italia! That country puts out some of the finest films. Hell, does any country put out the level of art that they do? No.
I have a real weakness for stories involving an old man mentoring a child. They are always more personal for me. Cinama Paradiso is a very good example of this kind of film. I loved it.
