So the new year came and so did my girl...but back to my point. The year started off with a bang as my gal and i killed two bottles of champagne and smoked some green.
I picked up a new dvd for myself "Pandora's box". While i still havent seen the movie the thick booklet alone has me droolin'. Louise Brooks is truely in a league of her own.
Had an awesome xmas as well with tons of goodies.
I also have a brand new kitty named Henry. I named him that in tribute to Goodfellas. HENRY! He's pretty cool but really chatty, which im not used to. He's about 5 months old. Henry:Portrat of a Serial Kitty.
I saw an INCREDIBLE film today called "Volver". If you havent seen or heard of it, do yrself a favor and see it. It stars the lovely Penelope Cruz and was directed by one of the masters, Pedro Almodovar. Truely a masterpiece it ranks as my second favorite film of 2006 behind "The Departed". Suspenseful, funny, heartfelt and thought provoking it has all the trademarks of an Almodovar film. Penelope is so great and her performance moved me so much that i got a lil tearry eyed at one point.
Fans of cleavage will surely enjoy this film as I certainly did too. Its in Spanish with subtitles but as usual some of the humor gets lost in translation but nevertheless it is still far better than the drivel that passes for box office gold i.e Pirates of the Carrib 2...man the action is entertaining but the story is weak and there's hardly any suspense going into the third movie. fluff. WATCH VOLVER.
I also picked my fave cd's of the year but ill put up the list when i find it. My favorite cd was TV ON THE RADIO. What an album! Scarling put out an awesome single as well, "Staring to the sun".
Im tired and my neck hurts so goodnite or goodmorning lurkers.
ps-happy new year everyone.
