Shocked

I cannot believe this!!
I just noticed that my all time favourite but one movie is mising from my list!
The speech on how he's a humanist and his foe is a sadist, the tell-tale of Eddy Barzoon, the seduction purely on a shoulder base, the burden of free will, but most of all the "Vanity, definitely my favourite sin": there might just as well not have been any other actors in this movie, even if they are convincing (the Jesus Christ Pose by Charlize Theron and the incredibly credible refusion by Keanu Reeves): John Milton, aka Al Pacino (who happens to have become 66 today: that IS funny) steals the show in The Devil's Advocate.
Some may find the allegories over the top, but I cannot.
In fact, if I am completely honest, it is really the best movie ever, but I have sentimental reasons to account Lost highway as my personal favourite.

More on movies: I'm gladly awaiting Spiderman III. I hope they will once again manage to give a super-hero a personality. Of course these movies ARE over the top ('With great power comes great responsability'), but that is the intention, so I don't really mind. And then, as a reader, I am anxious for both the new film and novel by JK Rowling. Splendidly useless books, but don't they enchant me: I want to fall in love with Hermione, I nearly died from Dementors, lie awake at night still wondering if Snape is a bad guy...

Am I making sense? None at all: too shocked, I guess, and once again a little lonely. I'll just take my guitar and play some sad music now - or maybe not: I have too many crazy plans for changing my life to let go. I need to be part of a band, I have to find a way to write more more more (it's everywhere now), I want to take photography classes, save the world to rid my friends of that burden, make love to my wife (more than ever), create love, devour love, dance drink float be madly in love and only merely sane, play the harmonica, learn sign language and woodworks, get high on music, and care: most of all, I want to care and be taken care of. I want to be funny and witty, fast and furious, eloquent (and whatever rhymes with eloquent), sexy and mysterious, I want to be renowned for my gifts to mankind (my children if nothing more).

Sorry, got just a little carried away there.
