Worth Experiencing [Apr. 8th, 2007|01:08 am]
[music |LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver - get innocuous!]

I saw The Lives of Others with Walt last night. Really an excellent picture, with the central character's performance (by some parallel universe's more German 45-year-old analogue of Conor) blowing me away in particular. I cried for the first time in a theater since seeing Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring - though not too much.

Also noteworthy was the lighthearted, jovial cruelty of Conor-2's immediate superior, who reminded me of my favorite character from Crime and Punishment, Svidrigailov. If I had the hammer, all I'd see is nails.
And why not enjoy it, hmm?
