In my opinion, this is one of the best movies of my time so far. It is a sad little story, but there’s something in there. It’s slow, and makes numerous little literature references throughout the movie. Yeay for literature references. And movies about the nitty gritty of New Orleans.
Love this movie.

“All These Things That I’ve Done” by The Killers

Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on

You know, you know – no you don’t, you don’t
I wanna shine on [...]

Today I accomplished a lot, for me.
I was up at a reasonable time (before 9 am!). And I planned my day. I did some time looking up things on the internet.

I know that it is very common for people to be [...]

I’ve lost the drive to write more than one little bit defending Twilight. I’m not really sure why I felt the need, to be honest. I’ve never really felt the need to defend anything I liked loved before….
But here are a few points.
It’s not love written the way true love should be. He’s a vampire [...]

I’ve read tons of reviews on random blogs and entertainment websites, of the book and of the movie. There are people who LOVE everything “Twilight” related, no matter what it is. That’s cool.
