Pixies at the wineshop

There are things that are made for Fall. Scarves. The color orange. Cameras. Notebooks. Tea. Football.
And there are things that we make for the Fall. Films like Igby Goes Down, Rushmore, The Royal Tannenbaums. To me, they scream Fall, with their tension and awkwardness.

Anyone who has spent time with me knows I am a big fan of the awkwardness - those moments just before we get real with one another; they are the best.

    if you're digging the awkward you really need to see "science of sleep."

      I'm thinking of doing that this weekend. Last week I made the mistake of going to the last/recent Jet Li film. What a waste...

        you're just too attached to the idea of a film needing more than ass-kicking.

          Who needs more than ass-kicking? I don't :)

          Actually I thought it was too sappy or laden with syrup. I got the sense that he or the director tried to say too much. Hero was a much better film.

          The first 3/4 of the movie was good. After that, I suggest people leave the theater.
