Yeah, I was talking about that couple of pages back.. the film is really impressive. I have seen it twice. I thought you would like it

Anyways, there's nothing new now.. Ortemy, did you see 'Russian Ark' [Russkiy Kovcheg], it received great reviews.. and I've heard nothing but good things about it, but all from older people.. and I'm worried it will bore me because it's a documentary filmed in one go with a standard camera inside Hermitage.

I've seen it. The movie is very weird. I mean the way it is made, the dialogs there... I did not like that part at all. But the whole deocorations, the Hermitage, costumes - sooooo beautiful! The movie does not really have any plot/story line... I would not say it's documentary, but rather an artistic view on Hermitage and russian history.
Now the thing is that I was in Hermitage and I had to study russian history for 10 freaking years in school , so I kinda know what they are talking about there and what they are showing. Will you have the same experience? I don't know If u feel like going to a museum then this is a good movie to watch

Today I watched "Talk to Her". It's been a logn time since I've watched a movie of such a quality. I cant stop thinking about it for half a day already, what a movie... The music is amazing, acting is great And the way the ending was made is just perfect, no cheese at all!!!

yeah, i could see why you did

what was the name of that other one you told me about today?

Almodovar's? 'All about my mother' [or try 'Dark Habits' for nuns enjoying LSD!! ]
Otherwise, we talked about a lot of movies today.. so could have been
'Amores Perros'
'Brotherhood of the wolf'
'Before the rain'

lol, damn, i was sooo looking forward to watching it tonight too ...

hey listen, do me a favour, ask martina where she rented sex and lucia from, cuz last week when i asked them at BB they said they didnt have it, nor would they carry it... :/

Blockbuster in Richmond Hill, not convenient for you at all.

Try that video store I told you on Spadina between Eglinton and St. Clair (I don't even know what it's called, but I know it's on the west side of Spadina.. pass this cute intersection.. there was Starbucks and Royal Bank before it too -- yeah, this should help you a lot )

haha no, I'm still not convinced that it's a good reason to waste the money on the car rather than on a vacation.. TTC all the way, ride the rocket, baby!

SO, you would recommend it? OK.. will consider. I'm no stranger to art and I took some courses in University, pretty interesting.. visited Louvre, Prado and all that.. but haven't been to Hermitage
