I suddenly get what all the fuss was about



We went to see Across the Universe last night and it was amazing. LOVED IT. Don't care that the movie as a story adn what not has issues, that wasn't really the point. It gorgously shot, beautiful sets and costumes, etc. the songs of course are the best songs ever written (this is really gonna become a cult classic singalong) and AND the acting/singing was really good. I figured that Jim Sturgess would be great (pretty much him singing Girl in the trailer removes all doubts) and Evan Rachel Wood despite some weirdness is a really talented actress (no one can deny this) but Joe Anderson was the surprise!! Now I have to take back everytime I was ever like "who the eff is this joe anderson person? and why is he on this list?" cause he was actually really good. He is gonna be in CONTROL too which I am obviously excited to see what with always having been a Joy Division fan. Anyways, I can't say enough about the movie. Afterwards N and I wanted to go see it again, and I kinda almost might on Sunday (one of those movies that I just keep repeat watching until the entire thing is forever stuck in my head). Anyhoos, if you guys get a sec and its playing near you, GO SEE IT. Its Julie Taymor madness at her best.

A somewhat related post

So I found this totally crazy version of the In the hall of the mountain king, but this group called apocalyptica. check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rw0TikGmVz4&mode=related&search=
How do they have so many fans??? who knew there were hard rocking cellists??

Creepy, creepy Michael Pitt

So I may be the only person in America who watched Cache (eerie and haunting, interestingly filmed), but here is another film by the same director and it appears to have taken creepiness to the next level (even though it is a remake). Love the use of Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King (aka Hunt the Wumpus).

Heaven for music nerds

http://www.blogotheque.net/cae_tous_les_concerts_en.php3

This is the site of that guy who did the video w/Arcade Fire in the elevator. He has about 64 videos posted now with all different bands. I haven't watched them all yet, but I'd recommend Beirut and Grizzly Bear, as they are bands I really love. Also, there are some really cute dancing kids in the Menomena one, and there's a great sing along of Starman by David Bowie in the Of Montreal one.

The year of Casey....

Look Charles, it seems that people are beginning to catch on...
