A blog currently wondering which of the One Direction boys will take him home. Other obsessions: hot boys, Britney Spears, the Disney pop princesses, French New Wave cinema.

Maybe I Am Going to a Funeral
So, I've been downloading tracks from the Walk the Line Soundtrack and it has put me into a nostalgic feeling for a film. While I don't think it's a great film on par with Brokeback Mountain, Walk the Line is a great popcorn biopic that delivers every time I see it. Plus, it has stellar performances from Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash and Reese Witherspoon (who deservedly won the Oscar, although I found that, of the nominees, Felicity Huffman in Transamerica was a smidgen better) as June Carter who rise above biopic cliches and even sing themselves instead of lip syncing like Jamie Foxx did in Ray. That's what makes the soundtrack a sweet deal because Phoenix and Witherspoon have fantastic voices that actually sound reminiscent of Cash and Carter. Bravo!
To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the diva, "Damn it! Where the hell is my waiter?! I need a freaking refill!"
