i was commeted, ( not by my choise mind you)

John, I don't have the time or knowledge to argue about Kubrick. The inclination might be there were I a bit richer in those two categories. I only brought up the "anti-life" thing because I was curious - to which you might ask, "What happened to the cat, Albert?" Yeah, I just dropped a movie quote. Know what it is from? And I'll open that up to the floor. Hint: the director was much-talked about this year. No Googling.

The Funny Games Experiment is interesting. I was trying to read it on my phone while in line for a Roasted Veggie Sub at Wegman's the other day. The line ended up being too long.  I got a Tofu Burrito instead. If I had more free time, I would watch Funny Games again. Now that I have been reading more about it, maybe I would like the film more? I suspect not though. Still, for a film that left me at "meh," I sure have spent a lot of time thinking and reading about it. 

Still no new movies to write about. I have been focusing on school and working through my ridiculously big stack of "to-read" books (went a bit crazy at the library books sale recently). I have been enjoying the hell out of Mildred Pierce though. Hopefully I will have a chance to watch the final two episodes of this five-part miniseries tomorrow.  

Dystopian Saved by the Bell? Yes, please. 

And because I know you guys love lists, how about A Cinematic Alphabet?

Catch you hepcats on the flip side.
