"Rust and Bone," Not Worth It

So I just saw the movie "Rust and Bone" with Matthias Schoenaerts and Marion Cotillard, and I have to say, I was pretty disappointed.  I'm a huge fan of Marion, so I automatically assume anything I see with her in it I'm going to love, but this movie just didn't do it for me.

I can't really give a synopsis of the movie because I don't really know what the plot was. A woman and a man meet one night at a club, the man was the bouncer, and he takes her home after she was hit in the face. He leaves his number with her. She's a whale trainer, and she loses both of her legs one day at a show. I would say this drives the narrative, as the two become closer because of this accident, but then the story goes nowhere. The protagonist, the man, is a pretty unlikeable guy throughout the whole film, and I don't see any development in him until the very end, and even then, there wasn't much of a resolution to anything. But there wasn't much happening for a resolution to happen. 

I really wish I liked the movie, I was really excited to see it. But I found myself continuously waiting for something to happen that a narrative could follow, and instead, random things happened that led to nowhere.

New and Improved. Well, almost.

Okay, so I haven't posted in a while.

That's an understatement.

But I had this sudden surge to post again. I sadly abandoned this blog as school started again, and my time management failed miserably. I am thinking of revamping this whole thing and making it into something more specific. Before, I was sort of posting whatever I was thinking about that day, and there really wasn't much of a theme. So if that bothered anyone, my apologies. I hope you enjoy the new coming look better.

That being said, I think the idea of blogging has struck me again because there a lot of things I wish to say, but don't know who exactly to say them too. But I do want people to hear them. And I also want to just figure out how to say them. I've noticed that I have a lot of opinions, but I tend to keep them inside. When I'm asked about politics, I just don't give my thoughts and that's that. But I do want to say things! And I think here would be a good place to say them.

Also, I'm odd about how much time I spend finding things that I think could become really great and deserve attention. I'm very into indie movies, I love vintage records, riding my bike is one of my favorite things to do, and I have a weird obsession with the cuteness of birds. So, just saying, these things might come up.

My posts will be about art. And I mean that in every sense of the word. Film, fine art, books, music, everything. But all of these things will have a sort of underground or different feel to them that I think deserve some attention.

So there we are. Here we are. And I'm excited.

Thoughtful Thursday: stop and smell the roses

I definitely believe in this quote.  I think it's the little things that make life worth living.  I hug from your best friend, a kiss on the forehead from the love of your life, the way grass blows in the wind, watching snow fall on a window.  These are things that make you stop and think "Life is beautiful."

Wonder Wednesday: Rainy Days

So here's to starting a blog schedule here =) Wonder Wednesdays!

I used to really hate rainy days. A lot of the time, they gave me headaches or made me just bleh-feeling. But I've suddenly really began to like them. Especially waking up with rain hitting my window. It's just the perfect weather to use as an excuse to watch movies, read, or spend your time however you prefer. How can you not love these days?

Below are some pictures just for these kinds of days =)

You can finish that book that's been sitting on your bedside table for three weeks

You have an excuse to finally wear your Hunter boots =)

You could go to a cafe and have really good conversation with an old friend
