Beautiful night tonight...

I love Boston

In the summer, it's magnificent!

Just one of those days

Take bizarre pictures of myself. It's a sickness.

The seals were out.

Steak dinner.

Listening to Endtapes by Joy Formidable
Feels years, leaves knots, Keeps apart

Palm trees

I've been to the San Diego airport so many times I lost count so why am I only just noticing the palm trees inside the building?

Settling in with room service and a book. Early start tomorrow.

Cali or bust

 Edward, in the wild, in Dover

Movie: Bel Ami

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1440732/

It is no secret that I am Team Edward. But Robert Pattinson... He really is a terrible actor. That being said, he is not what is wrong with the film. Bel Ami suffers greatly from a rushed plot, one that fails to define Georges and his horrible nature in any real way. It is only through the use of some sinister music and a close up of Rob - looking like he really needs to go to the bathroom - that we discover his true, angry side. It is over-used and ineffective. 

We are also rushed through the development of his relationships with the women he supposedly manipulates. Rob is not a skilled enough actor to swiftly move from these scenes where he first meets a women, then beds her, then casts her aside. We are often left wondering, what just happened? And the most rushed scene of all - the ending. Seriously, if you blink, you miss it and are left wondering, AGAIN, what just happened?

Perhaps I am just angry that all of those supposed scenes of his naked ass appear to be cut from the American release. Or maybe it is his greasy, non-Edward hair. Yes, I can be that easily swayed. If you feel the need to see this movie, then I highly recommend that you read the book first.

Listening to: Reckoner by Radiohead. Can't take it with you...

 

   ah Edward....

My first circus!

A little Stephen King in the morning. Followed, I hope, by my new water heater...
