Just sorted through all my dvds.
Meaning, I sorted them alphabetically into an excel sheet.
I haven’t updated that document since September and I now had to fill in 44 titles (including directed by, when it was made and who starred in it).
The count is now 445. Laave it.

'It's Complicated' Is on the telly.
And I just remember seeing this at the cinema with my sisters and mum and dad (who were divorced for eight years and then got back together… (I know, it’s different)) and then the scene were the kids find out happens, and it is honestly completely identical to how we all reacted to the news (I even stormed out… of the restaurant). Except, obviously, it ended differently as we now...

I don't know what I'm good at anymore.
My whole identity has always centered around a skill. Whether it was excelling academically or playing handball or just in genereal being a good kid. And while I was always good at these things, I was never great at anything. I’ve never been the best or the first one to do anything. I’ve never found that combination of loving something and actually being great at it.
And then I found...

Usually it’s the couch. And it has nothing to do with my room. I really like my room, and I have the best bed in the world.
I think it has to do with the fact that over the last five months I’ve spent so much time trying to fall asleep and not been able to and it’s just holding all of this restlessness and frustration. It might also be that sleeping somewhere else feels like my...

When I told Paul that I was going on a 300 km hike to Bergen this summer, alone, his response was “Sweet!” and not “why?” and that is why we are best friends.

I mean, it has no likeable characters. I was staring at the screen for the first 20 minutes trying to find something pleasing and I just couldn’t.
With the exception of the Fitzgeralds, Hemingway and Dali. But all the other ‘main characters’ were so unlikeable and distant and arrogant and I just found it so despicably transparent.
Also, Bridesmaids really bored me (and her).

Just saw 'Howl'.
In my opinion, Franco’s best performance.
Incredibly intriguing. I love films that draw me in like that.

Honestly underwhelmed by The Girl With the Dragon...
Maybe it was because I’d seen the Swedish one, but this one wasn’t as powerful. David Fincher is an extremely cool director. The way he shoots and sees scenes is remarkable, but this one… I don’t know. I felt like maybe he was a bit off his game. Rather than being tight, like most of his films are, this was a little loose and longwinded.
I will say that I probably...

"You watch Lesbian films?"
This question is honestly one of my biggest pet peeves. And it’s always said in the exact same tone of voice. As though it is completely surprising and kind of… I’d hate to say wrong, because I like to believe that people aren’t that stupid, but at the same time, there is always this patronizing streak to that question.
“No, actually I don’t watch films or read...
