霸王别姬


Watched Farewell my Concubine.  Eh, I dunno... Maybe it wasn't a good time to watch it.  Frankly, my brain isn't really being receptive to this sort of film right now... political history of China heavy stuff etcetera.  Lately, I keep starting half a movie because I can't sleep then giving up and never finishing them.  Well... I finished this one. SIIIIIGH!

Call me Kuchu trailer


A documentary about the (lack of) human rights for LGBT people in Uganda.  This looks like a very powerful film.  Issues like this make me cry angrily.  feh!

Naissance des Pieuvres


Naissance des Pieuvres really translates into "Birth of the Octopi" but the English title was changed to a much lamer Water Lilies.  Probably because synchronized swimming is featured in this movie?  I know that isn't a question.  Anyway, this was a random late-night movie I caught on netflix and it was something of a surprise hit for me.  I think it was really spot on in regards to feelings of adolescent loneliness, isolation, and friendship.  Worth a watch!
