Wow, been a little tardy on the old blogging front!
But in my defense, working full-time, without a computer staring you in the face is tiring! Although the number of saved drafts on my phone with notes of things to blog about is getting silly! The most recent of which is the 54th London Film Festival!
I found a little booklet all about it on my way home from work tonight, & it looks really amazing!
I think that top of the films I'd like to see are Black Swan & 127 Hours.
Black Swan is the film about Ballet...to be honest, I don't know too much about the narrative of the film, but I do really like Natalie Portman, & the trailer looks pretty amazing;
And it's by the same director as Requiem for a Dream, which I really like. I especially love the title of Requiem - I had to look up the meaning of requiem after seeing the film for the first time a couple of years ago, as I didn't know the meaning. It's also known as a 'Mass for the dead' - because once you've seen the film, you understand it's about the 'death' of the American Dream, & the way the protagonists all descend into madness in one form or another.
Which kinda looks like what happens in Black Swan, by the look of the trailer...should be interesting!
