days lately seem to be burdened by the sound of everyone's debbie downer Wah-Wahhhh moments. like everyone ive had contact with recently even! the sound of that muted trumpet w/ plunger just permeates in my mind. but why let your mind set in the mud puddle of going over the uncontrollable, when you can watch quality motion pictures. movies that make you proud to live in the current day and know that people are still making grand creative achievements.

"junebug. don't you think that'd be the cutest little name for a baby?"
if you haven't seen junebug w/ amy adams and ben mckenzie, you really should because it's really fantastic. amy adams even got nominated for best supporting actress for it this past oscars. and she's "The Hot Girl" in the U.S. version of The Office. anddd she is beautifulllll, not only physically, but especially her heart is in this movie. and ben mckenzie plays a solid role that doesn't involve the marketing and formation of turning indie rock into mall rock. and being the bad boy from chino..hahahahahahaah. no but really, i liked him in junebug. the movie is very warm to a group of americans that have been the source of sarcasm and mockery and bitterness; and thats small town, simple America, super Christian folk. i think this movie is way charming if you are willing to be patient.

another movie i've been giving a lot of thought and mental adulation is The Talented Mr. Ripley.
the cast is one of my favorite all star lineups, plus its about psychological reading and observing, jazz, the 50s, italy, and getting away with murder. performances by all are fucking brilliant. i forgot when i rewatched it that phillip seymour hoffman was in it. i pretty much like all jude law movies and all matt damon movies. so this one couldnt go wrong. plus future wes anderson queens cate blanchett and gwyneth paltrow?! scoreeee. i really wanna see Ripley's Game, another chronicle in the adapted novels about Tom Ripley, but features John Malkovich as the older, richer, wiser Tom Ripley; i hear it's mad mad good.
