"I don't know... I think animals are OK"

The Best Film of 2009

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

Speaking as an expert on the films of 2009 (I saw one film 11 times, and another film once), I can tell you with confidence that the absolute  BEST FILM of the year was not nominated for an Academy Award. This film, directed by Chris Weitz, based on a novel by Stephanie Meyer and adapted for the screen by Melissa Rosenberg, is NEW MOON (if you saw it as a bit torrent download, you may know it as LUNA NUEVA).

I’m serious, Man. It was a beautiful film. So was the first one, but bluer. Best actress? The subtle Kristen Stewart as Bella. By the way, few agree with me, but I am sure the author of the Twilight books, Stephanie Meyers, must have named this character after BELLA LUGOSI.

We all get a bit grey around the gills, eventually. At least, that’s our common direction.

down the street and around the corner a few years ago


If you look closely, you’ll see police activity in the distance. Two men were shot. They did not die. I don’t know who shot them or why. The house has been for sale and for rent since then, more or less.
I was looking for a picture of my neighborhood but and got distracted by this photograph but I was thinking of saying something less directly related to a crime.
I was walking to the supermarket this evening. It’s about two miles away, too far for most people to carry groceries. I just wanted washing machine detergent. I actually just wanted to walk, so why not go buy this thing you need anyway, I thought.
I felt so happy as I walked. Every house looked beautiful and fascinating. I saw very few people, but through one window I saw on a table a glass salad bowl with a few leaves left stuck to the sides… I saw lots of little things in lots of windows and I felt like I could have kept walking all the way around the world just for the pleasure of looking at more and more houses, places where people live, and it was fine to be on the outside, just looking.
