the day has come, my friends. that's right, after months of waiting I finally got to see the squid and the whale. the fact that this film has just now gotten anywhere near me (I had to drive 35 minutes) is one reason why I miss living in San Francisco or any city for that matter. and why the two super movie complexes here, which seem to have plenty of room for an indie film are set on showing the exact same crappy movies *cough cheaper by the dozen cough* is beyond me. anyway, if you haven't seen this movie, you should simply for Jeff Daniels' performance alone. He nails his character and he isn't very likeable which makes it all the better in my opinion. Also, the actor playing his twelve year old son is a gem. I really never knew a movie about divorce could bring about so much laughter. now if Match Point could find its way here...
Friday's with Motown will be back next week. this is just a gratuitous photo.
I'm headed out of town for a long weekend. I'll share the details and hopefully some decent photos upon my return. I hope to get some crafting done while away-- I have lots of plans if I could stop getting distracted.
more soon.
