This will be a very short entry!! I just twice in a row the movie "Sideways" and I loved it! One of the best movies about living, loving and getting old I have ever seen. I loved all the acting, especially that of Paul Giamatti and Virginia Madsen.
I loved the metaphor of the "winemaking process as living" and how it was developed by the scriptwriter and the filmmaker.
Another thing, I got to thinking that the filmmaker is dealing, in his last three movies ("Election", "About Schmidt" and "Sideways") with old males dealing with age, failure and loneliness, we have to see what this great artist does next!!
I think this all, but I will write in the weekend, probably on sunday, oh, I am STILL addicted to mp3's and the downloading of music in general!!!!

Lets see...I'm into Claremont right now but my husband is trying to get me to branch out to DC Comics and other Marvel comics. Hmm, I'm not sure that I have a favorite artist yet...I most assuredly do not like Romita Jr. though. The sharp angles and hard look of his version of the characters don't appeal to me.
I have seen some previews of Phoneix: Endsong and I do like the art in that. I think what I saw of Storm looks amazing in that. I want to send off for that as well.
Thanks again for making the Robi Rosa!
Oh, one of my friends suggested I give '100 Bullets' a try. I put a thread up on the comics board about it and it seems to be highly recommended. Have you read the series?
I can't wait till 'Sideways' gets over here. When I was back in the States the previews I saw for it looked really funny.
