Oh bring us back to the start...

Comfortable yet awkward.
Hard to read.

But I like that.

Went to the Toronto Film Festival this week. Saw Griffin and Phoenix with Amanda Peet and Dermot Mulroney (the dude from My Best Friend's Wedding). Dermot signed autographs and took pictures after which was nice and I got an autograph and picture which I will post later. He looks a million years old but anyway...

The movie was good. Romantic comedy...typical...but good. 3.5 stars out of 5.

Yesterday I went to see Jude Law, Juliette Binoche, and Robin Wright Penn in Breaking and Entering, which was an awesome movie. If you liked Closer, you would like this one. The acting by those three was absolutely magnificent (don't I sound like I know what I'm talking about?). Anyway, tons of symbolism and stuff that went way over my head...but great story about complicated relationships and consequences. Awesome.

Tonight I saw Bobby, which was directed by mighty ducker himself, Emilio Estevez. If you liked Crash, you would like this movie. It was all about interwoven stories, lives, and more obviously, the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. It was creative, interesting, and it sent a message about the life and times of the late 60s, the values and their political and cultural climate. It was clever, beautiful, and the ending was well put together and thought out. It was my favourite out of the three. Also starring: Helen Hunt, William H. Macy, Martin Sheen, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Nick Cannon, Lindsay Lohan, Emilio Estevez, Sharon Stone, Joy Bryant, Sir Anthony Hopkins, Freddy Rodriguez, Elijah Wood, Heather Graham...the list goes on! But I saw about half of them at the film! REAL LIVE FAMOUS PEOPLE.

I think I should quit my job and become a groupie.

Anyway, on another note...people should think before they speak. There is no excuse for ignorance, rudeness, and disrespect. There is also no excuse for no apology. So don't be stupid.

Few men are willing to brave the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality for those who seek to change a world which yields most painfully to change.

- Robert F. Kennedy
