Some quick movie-related thoughts...
- How have I heard so little about Burn After Reading before now? My god, it's Brad Pitt and George Clooney (and Tilda Swinton! And Frances McDormand! And John Malkovich!) in a Coen Brothers crime comedy — that is a recipe for a movie I absolutely have to see. I've long been of the opinion that it should be law that Pitt and Clooney make one movie per year together, preferably a comedy. They're both pretty boys who don't take the pretty boy bullshit seriously, and they're both funny as hell when they want to be.
- Watched the first thirty minutes of Hitchcock's Notorious (1946) last night — too tired to watch the whole thing, though I'd like to go back and catch the rest of it some time. But man, I'd never really realized just how beautiful Ingrid Bergman was. And charismatic, and sexy, and talented, and so very watchable — I guess there was a reason she was once one of the biggest movie stars in the world, huh?
- Also, I had utterly forgotten that Isabella Rosellini was her daughter — I knew Rosellini was the daughter of director Roberto Rosellini and some world-renowned beauty, but I'd forgotten it was Bergman. Should've been obvious, really, once I got a good look at Bergman — mother and daughter look just alike, I swear.
- Movies I've seen recently and for which I hope to get around to writing reviews sometime soonish: The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (loved it), Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (liked it a good bit), The Darjeeling Limited (liked it). Next up from Netflix: Once.
