i FINALLY got to finish watching Lost in Translation that i've had for a month or so now. i can see why bill murray was up for best actor now. he was really great.

jesse and i went and saw The Ladykillers on friday night (after our hot dinner date). it was... not exactly what i expected. i liked the movie, and i'm sure there's a lot of symbolism that i missed (because, yes, i'm not very good at that sort of thing), but... i dont know. there was so much cussing in it. and tom hanks was really funny, but almost out of place in the cast, it seemed. still a funny movie though. but it's not as lighted hearted as the trailers lead you to believe. it's quite dark, in fact.

then a bunch of us (and i do mean a bunch; like 13 or so) went and saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. what an awesome movie. it's one where you like it as you leave and the more you think about it later on, the more you like it. first off it was just really neatly done. very surreal. and just really cool with all the memory erasing effects. i think this has to be one of the best male/female relationships in a movie to me. it was so sad at times. really sad actually. and what a good ending. i love the last scene with them talking to each other. it was really touching. just the whole message you got from the film was really touching. i highly recommend it.
