The lack of blog updates is due to a lack in interesting things. I have been in Tennessee, Texas, and am currently in Illinois. Had anything worth noting happened, you would have known about it - I promise.
I did see some movies;
Be kind, rewind.
I'm a big JB fan, and I am all in favor of just putting him in front of a camera to see what will happen. That is pretty much what I expected of this movie and in some places that is exactly what you got which was good. But it also tried to have a bigger message about saving a building... Fats Waller... I don't know. It was pretty muddy and in the end people showed up without explanation carrying things that didn't make sense and you never got to find out what happened to the building. I enjoyed the movie remakes quite a bit, but I'm guessing that most viewers are going to come away with the same feeling that I did - namely that there should have been more movie remakes and less story. Not a waste of time, but a bit confusing overall.
No country for old men.
I really liked this movie. It is very violent in places and it does have Woody Harrelson who I don't usually care for. Woody did a great job in his later scenes and I was pretty impressed with his acting. I enjoyed the dialog overall even though it was somewhat sparse. Just like in 'Be kind, rewind' there were people who just showed up from time to time without a valid explanation of how they got there and the ending was far from any kind of closure. Still and all, it was a great way to spend an evening in a hotel away from family and friends.
Next week I'm off to Tampa again, and then who knows...
