holy three movie day batman

i don't know what came over me. part of it was that i've had tulpan for almost a month and need to get it out of the house. it's a kazakh movie by a kazakhstani russian. david and i had to look for pictures of him on the internet to find out if he's white or brown. the movies in russian and kazakh, which i think is really cool. the men are silent pigs, the women are silent but strong willed, the dudes are idiots, the wind is strong and the steppe is vast. all about right.

i guess that i liked that he wanted the life of a shepard on the steppe. it's possible that was cheezy and nationalistic, but it's kind of nice that the simple life was his dream.

i also watched disturbia (2007) with shea lebeouf. i'm not sure why i picked this movie. i have loved shea since the days of even stevens and rear window is my favorite hitchcock, so that's probably why. it was alright. it got kind of scary at the end.

in the beginning when the rating is posted and there is an explanation for why the film received that rating, it said for sensuality. not sexuality. i never paid attention to those, but aaron would notice and comment when nudity and sexuality was promised. sensuality?? seriously?

  1. I had to look up who shea lebeouf is. Man, What a name on that one. Also, I love the title of disturbia. Talk about cheesy, but what a great title!

    And I'd like to be in on the discussion where you get to talk about ratings and what makes sensuality different from sexuality. We were talking about this at radio training, how you can talk about lewd things in G rated language. But if I ever get on the airwaves, you can bet it's gonna be squeaky clean.
