Le Film

I'd like to start off by saying, happy Halloween.
You're welcome.
I'm really not into action, mystery, "mind-fuck" movies, but I like this. I say "this" because I can't remember what it's called. It's for the best. I would've wikied it if I knew.
The only problem I have with the movie is keeping up with the female characters. I feel like they all look the same. Maybe because there aren't many female characters. Or maybe because there aren't many main characters. I couldn't tell you who the sister, the friend, the lesbian, the wife, etc. are. That's ok though. By the end of the scene I figure it out. I'm more than excited to see the rest of the movie in full.
I think the reason why I like this movie is because it's in French. If this were in English I probably wouldn't have been as interested at first. I'm trying to save up my minimum wage paycheck to buy myself a Rosetta Stone for Hanukkah so I can learn French. Oui? Oui.

I ate too much candy. Most likely to puke 2012.

Trip Trip Trip

Although I ditched my second day of work most likely putting me on pins and needles with my boss, it was worth it. Trips are my favorite part of STAC so far, it brings us closer together. Our group spent most of the time getting lost but we ended up in some interesting places in result.
I didn't really understand the show, only because I struggled to see most of it. That and I passed out after intermission. Sorry. I did get that the main character and his mother had a bad relationship, other relationship problems, and that led to him almost killing himself. But I'm hoping to be clued in tomorrow.
I loved the Pratt gallery most. I understood psychogeography a bit more after seeing it. My favorite was the perspective of the city in gelatin. I liked how the artist portrayed the city, how fragile it is, and how it could topple over any second. Amazing.
I hope they fire me.

Edit Me

Be Kind Rewind

Being that I am a "noobie", this was my first Be Kind Rewind experience. I liked it, I wish we could make one monthly. Although, I'm sure the floor scenes would quickly become aggravating. I had fun though. I'm really just happy that I got to dress in drag.
It's difficult creating a storyline with a group. Especially when there's no guidelines. Everyone has a million different ideas and opinions and we've only got so much time. I do really like our movie though. I just wish we took it a little less seriously. It's supposed to be a fun project but there we were worried so much about every single detail and in the end we had to go with it. Too much planning.
Any oppurtunity I have to have to draw facial hair on my face is a good one. I got three whistles when I walked through the hallway after class Friday, just saying.

not feeling the prisoner

It's technically a brilliant show but I really just can't get into it. To be honest, I don't watch much television, and when I do it's the 'Real Housewives' shows on Bravo or Law and Order: SVU. Stop judging me. It's not that I don't like to think, I love to think, I'm thinking right now in fact. I just don't find it as entertaining as the rest of the class. I'm not alone. I know it.


Side note: plug to upload pictures to computer is MIA.

the trip

Admittedly I wasn't as excited about going to the MoMA as I was about seeing the show, not to say I wasn't excited for the MoMA at all. But when you see the pictures in front of you, the exact ones the artist painted, right in front of your face it's so overwhelming. You look at it and think: this piece changed the art world, this person changed the real world and how people think. It's incredible. My favorite Matisse I believe is called 'The Bather'. I snuck a picture of it on my phone but I unfortunately can't send it to Blogger. There was something so innocent about the boy in the picture. At least I saw him as a young boy. I don't have much time at the moment to write this but I will write more and post the pictures I took tomorrow. Thank you for the trip. Really. Thank you.
