1. Maybe it's ie on a mac, but there was a horrible character limit on the title, and it forced me to forego a longer and probably less eloquent version.
2. Who puts three commentary tracks on a DVD for a film that didn't last a month at the box office? The Writer, the Director,
and the cast?
I figured I would enjoy
Confidence., at least for the chemistry between the leads, Ed Burns and Dustin Hoffman.
They get awful cute, awful fast.
But still, I was a third of the way in thinking, "They want me to watch this four times?"
And then right up to the last shot, the movie was great--it's a very close retelling of the sting, but with a little more Mamet, and a little less panache. The only false note is excessive kissing in the back seat of a car when meaningful glances would do much better. The deleted scene reel, however, is a trip. Three different versions of Dustin Hoffman evaluating a row of strippers, snapping fingers in their eyes and saying "Who loves me?"
3. Rachel Weisszzzzssss.
I'm totally off of Julia Stiles now, thank you.
4. It's not like I have an 8 hour day of driving tomorrow, so why not stay up until 2:30?
5. I saw a feather from my down comforter that was stuck to my nightshirt, just pointing off to the side, and I burst out laughing.
