I watched Bowling for Columbine last night. It's my 3rd Michael Moore film, after Fahrenheit 911 and Roger and Me.
There's always a degree of silliness in Moore's movies and sometimes that's what makes his stuff funny.
But Bowling has so much sillies that the movie becomes embarrassing. To watch is to agonize.
I rated it two stars on Netflix (=did not like it).
It just so happens that our next Netflix piece is going to be his new movie Sicko.
Well. Talk about cringing!
周末看了一部日本动画片,叫做 Paprika。是关于我比较感兴趣的潜意识,梦,fantasy的主题。
这部片子比较宫歧峻的动画的而言,显得很现实 (realistic)。故事和绘画都是。
宫歧峻的动画无论色彩多麽艳丽,看完了都有一种噩梦初醒的感觉。如果是在电影院里看的话,从影院里出来总会觉得 - 不用生活在宫歧峻的动画世界里是一件美好的事!
Paprika 的导演叫做今敏。他的故事也一样有醒世的目的,但是故事的场景是 here and now,不是充满怪兽及暴力的另类(平行)空间。
还有就是非常喜欢这部电影的片头,音乐很好听。
目前正在看的书:
在火车上捡到的一本 thriller - Mind Prey
邓拓的 燕山夜话
菜根谭
我旁边 cube 的老太太骨瘦如柴,状若螳螂 。 矮脚型的。
据我观察她老人家身形苗条原因有二: 老烟枪 + 不吃饭。
她每天中午一个 yogurt 果腹, 吃到最后总是拿勺子把 yogurt 的小罐儿刮得惊天动地响。
每次听到她这个阵势,我都想冲过去对她说:
Honey, here's a dollar.
GO GET YOURSELF ANOTHER ONE!
