There are no clean getaways

Have you seen Drive yet? I don’t remember the last time I found myself head-over-heels in love with a movie. It has everything. It has car chase scenes, speed, a kickass soundtrack (I love the funky 80s theme going on there), violence (god, the violence in this film is amazing!) and most importantly, it has...

Somewhere

Somewhere

Sofia Coppola’s latest film Somewhere comes out December 22, and watching the trailer, I don’t know how I’ll be able to wait that long.  I never liked Stephen Dorff but just being in a Sofia Coppola film has endeared him to me. The musical score is by Phoenix as well, so I cannot wait to...

I Love You Philip Morris

Enorme. I can’t think of a more appropriate word to describe Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor’s latest film. Oh wait, maybe I can. Hilarious. Or Excessive (I mean that in a good way).

The dog who was a cat inside

I fall for these things, all the time… I love how the cat wants to chase mice, and how the dog just wants to sniff doggie butts! Note: Jul, if you can’t decide between getting me a dog or a cat, what do you say about a dog who has an inner cat, or a...

Subterranean homesick blues

A whirlwind trip downtown with Julien at 6 in the evening, both of us shivering in the cold, holding hands while stepping over dog poo and spilt ice cream cones, dodging the mad crowd of Saturday shoppers, making faces at babies in carriages and running away before the babies started telling on their parents. This...

The Force is Strong Here

Let’s start with this fact : I don’t know anything about Star Wars. Okay, that’s not entirely true. It’s set in space, right? And Yoda’s part of the “good” gang. And they use light sabers. I also picked up from Toy Story 2 that the sentence “I am your father” is very Star Wars-y. A...
