looking dazed and confused and angsty and scared in a bookstore? Why?
Maybe at home but never around books.
HAHAHAH!!!!
But what is that from?
Anyway, I'm obsessed with books, as you know, even if I don't have enough time to read them.
I hope I'll be coming to Monroe soon to continue the tradition. Are you coming to CWSC this summer? I prolly won't be able to go. . . .
uuuumm ok....
I love Keane!
hahaha. It is you. except you're cuter.
did you get my email? I sent it through the xanga thing...:-/
Ah, amazing. I'm trying really hard to come to the ball!
But yeah. I've wanted to see that movie for...a long time. Kate Winslet and all. Except it's rated R, so I'd have to watch it with a close friend and a handy skippy button.
Hmmm...interesting thoughts on Equilibrium. As I understand, the Tetragrammaton refers to the four letters of YHWH, the unpronouncable Jewish name for God. I took this idea in the film, with the "Father" heading the Tentragrammton, as the government representing the false Messianic pretentions of the the utopian state, with the "clerics" being the religious enforcers of the state religion. So, we he kills the Father, I didn't take this as some kind of anti-Christian idea. You might say he's actually destroying the Anti-Father. Interesting note, in the final sequence he's wearing white, whereas he's in black the rest of the film. Coincidence? Probably not.
Of course, my one critique might be that emotion for the sake of emotion leads to the philosophy of romanticism and anti-intellectualism. But the leader of the resistance counters this when he says that "uncontrolled, emotion is chaos".
