so, there are these billboards in micmac for the movie. does that make it post modern?
there is so much amazing happening in the movie and i can't even start. i loved the villains. i loved how different they were but how really they're the same. i loved that the modern evil man has a son he's not really involved with. i loved that they eat the same for breakfast.
anyway, there was a lot to love. i've watched two seasons of leverage which is about conning the bad guys to ruin their lives and micmac is really like that. it's all about the long con.
oh, and some things may have been lost in translation. oh, why don't i know french?

one of the times i saw a very long engagement with someone who spoke french and it did sort of make me sad that i don't know exactly what they're saying. what if it's cuter or more clever and i just get whatever the subtitlest thinks i should get or whatever fits in with all the other imperfect subtitles?
ReplyDeletei can't wait to see this movie. i was thinking about billboards because they're illegal in maine and because i've been listening to arcade fire's neon bible a lot lately which makes me think of that book neon bible which made me think of the great gatsby and the billboard in that with the big eyes that say or imply something creepy like god is watching or whatever. maybe it's just a billboard for eyeglasses.
