Movie Sale!
So someone pointed me to a dvd sale on Amazon. Since I left 2 box sets with my parents I was feeling movieless. I was thinking about German language help, my eternal britophilia, and FUN. Here's what I bought:
The Queen
Gosford Park
Run Lola Run - sometimes better than Memento at the multiple version thing!
Wings of Desire (The Criterion Collection) - mmmm, Wim Wenders and Bruno Ganz.
Downfall - mmmmm, Bruno Ganz. Yes, this is where all the parodies on youtube have come from.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (Single-Disc Edition) well, I didn't think I needed more than a single-disc edition, but it was pretty fun! Blame it on Danyal.
Il Divo - oh, Italia!
Fellini - Satyricon - oh, Italia! Despair about you has been going on for a LONG time!
Purple Rain - hey - I bet my sister and I can still do all the right hand gestures to "I wld die 4 u"
sex, lies, and videotape - Look, now I have my own copy! And it's on DVD, ironic 80s heh heh heh.

All these years, and I did not know about you and Bruno Ganz. I may have to get my own copy of Wings of Desire now!
.....I think Bruno Ganz has one of the most expressive faces ever! --MCT

You consider Gosford Park RE-watchable?
Am pretty sure I produced the gestures to "I would die 4 U" in the last year or so.
.....Well, deep down inside I could turn off the sound. I just like watching the house work. I took a great tour of Biltmore once that concentrated on kitchens and service passages - I love that sort of thing. --MCT
