I've finally started learning the language of Xhtml. Hopefully, it does not require 2 years to pick up.

In the mean time, the site is messed up. Until I figure out how to manipulate all these boxes, the layout will just have to tide me over Christmas.


Oscarwise

In other news, some Oscar movie scripts are out. I love fact that we have a chance to look at the original scripts to compare to how it's acted on screen or to find out what the heck is going on. Either way, power to the Internet.

It's a slow movie month. I found a copy of Hana and Alice while clearing up my shelves.

In a nutshell, it's a coming of age story of two best friends. They both all in love with a boy from a train and one of them convinces him he has amnesia when she witnesses him colliding into a wall and then fainting. According to the blurb, hilarity ensues as they try to keep the lie going.

I'm not so sure about the hilarity part because I didn't laugh at all. There is also something to be said about shooting in HD. It seems like you can't avoid the 'home-video' quality which fortunately worked for this film. The object of affection in this film is played by this guy, who gives the most peculiar sqeaul whenever he encounters something strange. He also monologues a lot but its pleasant to listen to.

Hana and Alice compliment each other in the way best friends do. Their delivery/acting was so sincere it almost felt like I was watching a video I had randomly picked up by the road side(why yes, there are a lot of forgotten cameras by the road).

Overall, the film was artistic photography coming to life. To get a sense what the heck I'm trying to tell you, here is my favourite part in the entire film.




I think you should watch it. On line.

I think the movie is coming out next week, it would explain the pillars at the Douby Gaut which are plastered with the posters


Now you too can sparkle like Edward for USD$9.99




I don't even have to make this shit up, seriously.

Only in America.

Otherwise
What are you doing this holiday?
