movies worth seeing: a single man

tom ford's directorial debut, a single man, was amazing.
colin firth never ceases to amaze me.

The film centers on a middle-aged English professor, George Falconer, who is still struggling with life after his partner, Jim, dies.
It follows a day in his life -- the day when he decides to commit suicide. Throughout this day, he narrates for us. He takes us back to times where Jim was still alive and he shows us how he doesn't see much in his future.

The film changes colors quite frequently. Flashbacks tended to be more saturated than reality, implying that Falconer lived mostly in the past, I presume. Though, reality, at some points, were fully saturated as well.

Much emphasis was placed on the architecture and the fashion of the 60s, which was beautiful. The house that Colin Firth's character, George Falconer, stayed in was breathtaking -- a house of glass.

The film was quite beautiful, and I loved it.

god of thunder


god of thunder - m83
i think the songs name should be changed to 'god of snow'. GOD, LET THE SNOW POUR AND POUR AND POUR AND POUR. Well, at least enough for school to be called off.

i'm pretty psyched for this film, the single man! i think it already came out, but look at the cast. NICHOLAS HOULT? COLIN FIRTH?

and speaking of tony stotem (sp?), SKINS 4 is coming out at the end of january! i have the strong urge to say January 28th, but i am prolly mistaken. please correct me if i am wrong!

those new promo pics, though. not so great.
i finally finished season 1 over christmas vacation, and that finale was "cray cray". VRAIMENT.

and look at this, facebook revenge at its best.

thank you
