I'd like that time back, please
I just watched Closer. I want that 2 hours back. Movies involving tragedy should be sad. Movies involving romance and couples should be happy. Reality is depressing enough. Why would I want to watch a movie that isn't sad enough to make me cry, but is depressing enough to make me depressed? I always try to watch a few Oscar contenders just because I figure that I should watch some "good" movies every now and again. It almost always turns out to be a waste of time. Since I'm convinced that Tommy Boy is one of the greatest movies ever made, I guess I should just stop trying to watch movies that critics think are good and stick to Jack Black and Will Ferrell.
Tommy Boy is one of the greatest movies ever made.
ReplyDeleteYou may want to avoid any potentially sad movies while you're living alone in Kentucky. Just a thought. Try Deliverance or something uplifting like that.
Thank you. I too thought that "Closer" was terrible, even though other people told me it was great. Too much dialog and crying.
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed at what a prude I am when it comes to people talking all dirty in movies. Even when I'm alone, it feels like my mom is sitting right next to me.
