random observation



I was watching Vanilla Sky last night and realized that the premise is very similar to one of my favorite films in the entire universe Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Both films revolve around a protagonist who is emotionally disturbed by a recent event involving heartbreak. The protagonist finds no other solution other than either erasing their ex-lover from their memory or freezing themself and reliving a fantasy world that expels only desire. See the similarity?! Okay, this may be a far stretch, but the bridge is actually short – at least in my book.

Sidenote: Vanilla Sky is based off a 1997 Spanish film called Abre Los Ojos, also starring Penelope Cruz.

update with new moving pictures

It’s been a long and weird week. And now that it’s closing, I’m going to leave this work week with a clip from one of my most favorite movies. Many know this film as controversial, eye-opening, and religious-picketing glory, but I call it just plain silver screen gold cinema! The film is “Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion” and this is their dance:

sidenote – check out the new videos I posted under the “moving pictures” page; I’m going to add more sporadically throughout the weekend.

Have a tremendously great Friday!

over and oot,
