Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (my dvd)
It was joined in progress after the Twins game, so I thought I'd start from the beginning and avoid the commercials and cuts. I really wish they'd make a sequel.
Yes, it's true, I tuned in to a movie on Lifetime. But it starred Joan Cusack and Mae Whitman, whose performance as Sandra Bullock's daughter in Hope Floats was very memorable. I was curious to see her in something else. I guess it was a coming of age movie, as the 3 teen protagonists were trying to themselves as they applied to different colleges. It was okay—Joan Cusack as one of the mothers was WAY over the top. I don't feel like I wasted those two hours.
really well done, beautifully shot peephole into the life of a stroke victim. really want to read the book now (heard the movie doesn't follow his book with 100% accuracy).
log your movie viewing habits, whether viewing at home or out at the theater. log how many times you might watch a movie from your own collection within a span of time, too.

Cold Souls

Kind of like a drier, more somber, grown up Eternal Sunshine. Paul Giamatti is terrific.

Continuing my roommate's pop culture education with perhaps the best car chase film ever made.

Oh man, I'm missing out on a Rockython on Spike today. Think I'll tune in to some TCM Elvis later instead. The choices we have to make.
