This is Hysterical

You guys gotta check this site out.

the two new MUST watch trailers

First is IN BRUGES, which to be honest I didn't love as a script. I thought it was just dark cause the humor wasn't on the page but they did a great job with casting and it looks quite frankly awesome. You can see this one here: http://www.firstshowing.net/2007/11/23/in-bruges-trailer-with-colin-farrell-brendan-gleeson-and-ralph-fiennes/

The 2nd is THE DIVING BELL AND THE BUTTERFLY, which previously I thought sounded depressing and dull because its about a dude who communicates by blinking his eye and somehow wrote a book this way. But it IS a Julian Schnabel movie so obviously going to be arty and I think it looks gorgeous. Plus it has Matthieu Amalric who was the French guy in Munich and I thought he was so good in that and put him on my list of actors I love and now he has gone and done this. you can see that one here: http://www.thedivingbellandthebutterfly-themovie.com/

The Perfect Day Is...

Season Three of Black Books is out and features Simon Pegg in the very first episode as a kind of scary manager of the Borders-esque bookstore next door, which is pretty sweet.

Happy UnThanksgiving you guys!

Oh Atonement - best picture of the year

I know, I know. I am competely obsessed with it. Saw a screening of it tonight, it was Incredible! the BEST movie of the year by far. Its so beautifully shot, so beautifully framed. All the details perfect. gorgous sets, costumes, and of course the acting. Keira & James are AMAZING. So is the little Irish girl Saroise. When it comes out you both must see it. So tragic and sad! but hooray James! people will finally see how awesome he is, that which we have known since white Teeth. And of course Keira. She is such a great actress, not just a pretty face.

What is your daemon?

Of course, I would be a monkey. What are yours?

Best lines ever...

So I'm watching the latest episode of Heroes online (since I have a television but no antennae) and a character literally just said...

..."You've had a terrible accident."

I think if any of us write stuff, that line should be included at least once per manuscript.

Just sayin'.
