Wow,
We watched this movie last night that I am going to suggest to everyone on my friends list. It's called "The Ice Storm". It was made in 1997 and didn't get much press that I know of. If I remember right it was either written by the same guy that did American Psycho, or directed by the same director (I know there's a major difference between those two things, but I am really bad at knowing directors and things of that nature).
Anyway it is a great movie! It has a young Katie Holmes, Christina Ricci, Froddo (can't remember his name), and Spider Man (can't remember his name either), in it! And it's great. It's about this fucked up family in Connecticut, and all the shit going on in their lives. I have never related to so many experiences of growing up as I did in this movie, and the way the story deals with the realities of life is amazing!
It's in the same vein as Americac Beauty but I think it came out before it, and in my oppinion is more succesful!
Check it out if you haven't seen it already!

You know, my journal entry is the first even remotely creative thing I've written in a few years. It just sort of came out when I sat down to complain about things. Felt sooooo good. I need to write more. Well, more for me; I write plenty for school.
I'd be happy to share my writing, though, as soon as there's more of it.
Interesting tidbit about Ghandi: Did you know that he severely beated his wife? For such an advocate against violence, he was NOT the model husband. by any means. how weird is that.
And yes, what you wrote did make sense. heh.
I'm an okay speller, but I'm such a prig that I look up the correct spelling of words all the time. It's a self-conscious English major thing I suppose. I dunno.
I vaaaaaguely remember The Ice Storm, but, not really. heh. It must had been directed by the same person as American Psycho cuz the writer of American Psycho (the book, anyway) is Bret(t) Easton Ellis and I'm fairly certain he didn't write anything called The Ice Storm.
blar blar blar, peace out, suckah.
