movies make me thoughtful. i am 3/4 of the way through The Libertine and find it good. Unusual. Bothering me enough to stop watching it. Then I know it's good...if I can't stand to watch it anymore -- it cuts too deep, too close to something I cant' quite put my finger on, something raw and real. Something like fingers on an unknown pulse, a smoldering of a forgotten spark.
movies like that make me thoughtful. they make me dark, and I always turn, I turn away... because I can't stand to know the end ... perhaps because I feel as though it's already played it out inside me ... an end best witnessed once.
