And the quote from November 10? That's from "The 25th Hour" with Edward Norton. Let me be honest, "The 25th Hour" was the greatest lousy film I've ever seen. It's got great acting, and a great cast, and the director has made some big movies before(Spike Lee); but this movie just sucked. The story has a lot of holes, and introduces a lot of things that weren't explained or followed through to their conclusion. And the movie's on the verge of being superb, but it trips before the finish line and never becomes what it could have. Still though, if you like Edward Norton(and you should because he's a damn good actor), give this movie a look.
Now, those of you who have read this blog before know that I give my opinion on books, movies and music here from time to time. I do this because, having experienced something, I feel able to give a good review on it, like the one about the movie above. But you can only review something you've perused cover to cover, start to finish. When you know the whole story, you can better expound on it. If you don't know the whole story, you have no business giving your two cents on something.
That's all I'm going to say about that. There's something else I could put down here, but I'm not going to start using my precious blog, freshly dug up from the tomb I had placed it in, to rebuttle someone's petty rantings. This blog is for MY petty rantings. After all, people don't want their drama solved, because then they wouldn't have an excuse for not fulfilling their dreams. I know that best of all.
Now, on to the blog.
"Wednesday's Child is full of woe." That's in a children's poem. Why on God's green earth would they put that in a children's poem? Probably one of those things that came to children filtered down through the horrors of the middle ages, like "Ring Around The Rosie"(Bubonic plague, people).
But can a day have power over you? Of course, in the modern days, Mondays are like chains around the necks of most people, and Fridays liberate us towards a beautiful weekend. But in that same children's poem that I mentioned above, the day of the week has power over the nature of your child. So, if that's the case, can not a day of the week also hold sway over our attitudes, our fortunes, our dreams?
That's all for today.
