Except that it's spelled "Weltanschauung."
[Edited for, hah!, spelling.]
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Hey. New board.
Heh. The speller sort of screams it in the show. And there's a song halfway through it. The correct spelling is a bit hard to figure out.
ETA: Also, just noticed that Dana spelled it right. I'm the only poor speller of German words here.

Also, just noticed that Dana spelled it right.And I just looked back and noticed this too. I can handle German words. But I never know how to spell (or pronounce) French words or phrases.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Could doppelganger be the German word that was originally being invoked?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nah, I got it -- it was unheimlich.

Is that where you grab someone around the ribs and deliberately choke them?

Exactly!
No, silly, it's uncanny. But freaky, due to the German.

Movies I have seen this week:
Once -- SO good. I hate to use the words "charming," "witty," and "Irish" in the same sentence because they don't really give a good impression of what this movie's about, even if they're all true. Instead, I will just say that the Fox Searchlight logo at the top of the film probably cost about 5 times as much as the movie itself did to produce. It's an ultra-low budget singer-songwriter musical romance. (The link to the website, btw, WILL play music at you when it's done loading, so turn your speakers off before you click at work. And then go back and listen at home, because the music's really really good.)
Day Watch. Sequel to Night Watch. Sadly disappointing -- it obviously had a bigger budget than the first installment, but I didn't think they used it as well. The original had a fantastic filmmaking-by-the-seat-of-our-pants feel to it, and this one felt far more pedestrian and Hollywood-ish. I didn't like the way they sexed everything up, and I didn't like how slick it felt compared to the first one. DH disagrees with me and liked it more than I did, though, so it's possible I'm just being curmudgeonly.

That's just crazy talk, of course.

I finally got around to watching my Netflix disc of An Inconvenient Truth that I've had for just about forever and sent it back on Wednesday. I just got e-mail that my next disc should be arriving tomorrow--it's Macbeth from the late 1960s, with Ian McKellen and Judi Dench as the bloody couple. I am sooo looking forward to seeing this!
