Some Movie Reviews

There Will Be Blood was amazing. I thought No Country For Old Men was easily the best film to come out in the last year but it might be this film. PT Anderson often has his music really upfront; I remember how unsettling the music was in Punch Drunk Love (courtesy of Jon Brion - Magnolia, Eternal Sunshine, Late Registration, etc) but the music in this film was on another level. Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood's score has been described as "searing" and that's a perfect word for it. It elevated the film to a level of intensity that you just have to experience for yourself. Sadly it is ineligible for Oscar consideration because Greenwood wrote some of the music for his performance on BBC called "Popcorn Superhet Receiver". Because it was not specifically written for the film it was deemed unoriginal.
I will give nothing away. See this film.
ps - I also saw Cloverfield. I think I would give it 7 brain hemorrhages out of 10. At the ticket counter they warned us that it caused motion sickness. I didn't think twice about the warning because that's never been an issue for me. About 25 minutes into it, it definitely became an issue. I forced myself to stay until the end and wasn't too impressed with the movie overall. The effects were pretty cool BUUUT the thing is: Anything filmed by a cameraman suffering from epileptic seizures every two minutes, will look "cool". The handheld in this movie was unwatchable - I realise they were going for realism (like you just popped the tape in the vcr and watched whatever was on there) but there is a little thing called simulated realism. I don't need to actually kill an actor to make his death look real do I?? Anyways, I could rant about this for awhile but I recommend waiting for it to come out on video, it might save you a migraine and it's probably how they wanted you to watch it anyways. (JJ Abrams gets bonus points for apparently tying Cloverfield in with Lost and Alias though)
pps - happy 50th birthday to Lego! You definitely had a hand in pointing me towards a creative career!

So True

This is from a editorial by Star Jones about Heath Ledger.

I agree with her a 100%.

Since we learned of actor Heath Ledger's untimely death on Tuesday
afternoon, the basic fact is that until additional tests have been conducted,
the autopsy is incomplete and inconclusive as to why this 28-year-old man died.
That's what we know.
Let's get to what we don't know: his death was
a tragic accident, or something to the contrary. Until we know for sure, I think
the media should just shut their mouths and stop all the speculation that's been
running rampant.
This man has a two-year-old daughter. His family is going
through the worst time in their lives. Their hearts are broken, they're numb,
they can't understand what's going on right now. Michelle Williams is trying to
figure out how to explain to their little girl that she will never see her daddy
again. It's heartbreaking, tragic, and it's being used to fuel our never ceasing
desire to eavesdrop on the lives of others.
Please let them grieve in privacy
and dignity for a few days at least for goodness sake. As far as I'm aware,
Heath Ledger never did anything but conduct himself in the most respectful and
charismatic way. He gave us exactly what we asked of him -- good entertainment
and our $12 worth when we sat our butts in the seats of a movie theater. He made
his living in the entertainment business, but he purposely chose not to make his
life that way. He was by all accounts a normal guy in every way, a regular dad
who was often photographed walking down the streets of Manhattan or Brooklyn
with his daugther, Matilda.
The scene outside his apartment on the night
Ledger died made me sick to my stomach. People gawking and waiting around for a
body bag to be removed. I have been at similar scenes in my work as an assistant
district attorney. And let me tell you, if you don't have to be there, you
wouldn't want to be. It's morbid. Someone who was loved is in that bag... and
trust me it takes more than a minute to get used to that.
And when actress
Michelle Williams and her daughter arrived home in Brooklyn, the scene was just
as bad. Instead of being allowed to enter her home in privacy, she had to endure
the flashbulbs of the paparazzi waiting to snap the money shot. How she
explained that to her child through her grief is something I hope never to
experience.
Might I suggest that we in the media, instead of reporting on the
dead based on gossip, rumor, innuendo and anonymous sources, choose to honor
this man's memory based on his talent and the good taste we all should be
exercising. My heart goes out to the family of Heath Ledger.

Heath Ledger Died

At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at Apartment 5A in the building for an
appointment with Mr. Ledger, the police said. The masseuse was let in to the
home by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Mr. Ledger’s bedroom.
When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and
found Mr. Ledger unconscious. They shook him, but he did not respond. They
immediately called the authorities. The police said they did not suspect foul
play and said they found pills near body.

this from Perez Hilton.com and they have made if offical.


This is so sad..... This is the second death for me this week...it comes in 3 so yeah look out.

I can't Wait

My Heart Goes Out To Her

The Sun says that Lily Allen has had a miscarriage. She found out she had lost her baby when they got back from a vacation in the Maldives last night. We just found out she was pregers last month.

A source said, “Lily and Ed are in a state of shock. The bad news has been
really difficult for them to take and they are absolutely heartbroken.
Lily’s
entire outlook on life changed after she found out she was pregnant.
She was
looking forward to being a mum and starting a family with Ed. She
had turned her
back on her party girl image and had turned over a new leaf.
They are surrounded
by friends and family are offering support. It is a
really difficult time for
them.”
Her rep confirmed Lily's miscarriage,
“We can confirm that Lily Allen
has suffered a miscarriage. She and her
partner Ed Simons will be making no
further comment and we ask that their
privacy be respected during this difficult
time.”

I feel so bad for her... I can only imagine the pain of something like that. I will be praying for her and everybody else should to.
