Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

I imagine watching Hero on a very small screen really worked against the beauty of the movie. Oh well.

However, last night I watched The Station Agent, and absolutely loved it. Bobby Cannavale, who played Joe, reminded me a LOT of a guy I used to know.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Isn't that just the loveliest film?

Oh, I adore The Station Agent, Alicia. Simply a marvelous little movie. Peter Dinklage is quite splendid.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Chiming in to add love for The Station Agent. So great and it has Patricia Clarkson, one of my faves. Speaking of which, I watched High Art again last night. PC is so wonderful in it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The Station Agent was my favorite movie last year. Amazingly good, and not an explosion or soap opera plot to be found anywhere.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Speaking of which, I watched High Art again last night. PC is so wonderful in it.

I was very convincing in that sex scene with Radha Mitchell, huh?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Well, the online version, anyway.

I am impressed. Also, Katie, I don't know if anyone's mentioned this to you, but that piece you wrote is pretty funny.
