This morning, I watched....and it was a struggle to not press the 'delete' button, every 3 or 4 minutes..... "It's All About Love"...Joaquin Phoenix, Claire Danes, Douglas Henshaw, Margo Martindale, Mark Strong and Sean Penn's "worst film"....... as well as Thomas Vinterberg's.....I think that this film should be utilized as an example of 'everything wrong,..that a director can 'do'....in a single film production'.........At least, it had an 'ice skating' scene.......reminiscent of the 'shooting of high fashion models' in the far better film, Sally Potter's "RAGE", done a few years later......and the music, by Zbigniew Preisner, was no Dreaming of Joseph Lees, either.......Yet, this mutating sci-fi-ish rambling fostered some far better dismally depressing dystopian flicks..... Sorry, Oksana Baiul, but Thomas must have had You in Mind!

mostly my nostalgic and frequently puerile reflections on old movies, music and whatever pops from the recesses of memory....i have detailed memory of the oddest and more insignificant details.......these memories codify and indelibly emboss the past into my portrait of the future.......and a bit queer, to boot!
About Me
- vaporcloud
- pragmatic sensualist, motivated by really deep instincts, actualized by willful imaginings and perpetuated by other's desires. Abstract, yet clear in purpose, honest, but abstruse, my moods change like winds and water with my confidences, and when ungrounded, i am both guarded and vulnerable, leaning, in darkness, to the Light, nurtured by instinctual feelings arising from a deep gene pool.
