just thoughts

     I caught cold(((, not severe one but still I've got dizziness, blackouts and I am quite cranky still which is the first sign of illness. Fair enough I spent the whole weekend at home, but managed to clean the apartment despite the desire to faint and vomit at the same time. Being chained to TV and a bed , I decided to catch up on some native movies which I admit I watch really rarely. It's hard to find a solid movie to watch, cause my kind of movie has to be psychological, emotional, give food to thoughts and engage me in the plot so deep I wouldn't be able to sleep! I grant you, I do watch easy romantic flicks, sometimes even stupid comedies but the Real movie has to grip my soul.

   Russian movies can be amazing, with indescribable humor and touchy feely storyline but mostly they are a pathetic copycat of a modern American novel, has nothing to do with reality, well at least nothing with my reality! The trashy life of some rich businessman, hookers, coke, booze and some cheesy acting... It has nothing to do with who a person is, it's disgustingly distasteful and I don't want to offend people who like them, but it leaves nothing inside after watching it. I think it's boring to watch cars and naked girls and listen to the stupid dialogs for 2 hours not knowing where is it all going and what's the purpose of it? The movie is Art, well it has to be.

  After starting and stopping to watch several films  on a minute 5 or 7 tops I actually found what I've been craving for. The wonderful Russian movie, which made me cry my guts out and more importantly Think!!!!!! Oh, nothing makes us think these days, just speed it up, live in a constant hustle, hurry up and not see what is important and deserves our undivided attention. The movie is called the "Island" by Pavel Lungin. The story is partly fictional and some characters are based on real people . The best movie I watched in years.
