I also have not kept up with my Rosetta Stone French but I have a good excuse! I have been preparing for 48 hr film by moving furniture and keeping supplies organized. I am excited for next week: 48 hr film, Photoshoot, more movies, Stand-up show!, and catching up on Rosetta.
MONDAY
Camille 2000 Directed by Radley Metzger (1969)
I've been watching a lot erotic 60's film which are amazing! Very romantic, beautiful, and great sexual films made with class. Not to mention amazing mod clothes that get me really excited
TUESDAY
Wild Grass Directed by Alain Resnais (2009)
I thought the plot kinda reminded me of Amelie, a little bit, it does involve lost items and returning them to the owner. I had no idea this was a French movie so I did watch half with the subtitles on and off and I understood it! Most of it at least. The colors in this film are really pretty and I regret not seeing this in theaters when I worked at The Bijou. I really enjoyed this film
WEDNESDAY
3 Idiots Directed by Rajkumar Hirani (2009)
This is THE #1 highest grossing film in India, ever made. So it's pretty much the #1 Indian movie of all time. I have searched like you have no idea for this film online, ebay, and had this on my Netflix wait list for a year. But finally I got it. This is a 3 hour comedy with reeeally good dance scenes. This movie did have it's weird moments and 2 and a half hours in you kinda wonder when is this going to end.. but not necessarily bad. I liked it and like I said, I really liked all the songs.
THURSDAY
"Touch" Play Directed by Toni Press-Coffman
I got invited to this play by one of the actors mom who I met at the CalArts Dallas dinner. He is a CalArts actor. I thought this play was really good. I got kinda emotional and really like that they had a screen with film being projected on. Every time the characters would leave the set the projector would turn on and you'd see the scene they were supposed to be going to. Really creative I thought.
FRIDAY
The Puppetoon Movie Directed by Arnold Leibovit (1987)
This is a collection of shorts by GEORGE PAL. He is a Hungarian animator, stop-motion and puppet work. Very talented, he created the 1st ever stop-motion studio in Hollywood making sooo many Animations possible.
SATURDAY
Head Directed by Bob Rafelson (1968)
Watched The Monkees movie finally with my friend Ben. I'm such a bad Monkees fan, I had seen clips of this but finally watched the whole thing. This movie, well actually also The Monkees show is very experimental. There is some very cool editing, mod clothes, dance scenes, and Dave, Peter, Mike, and Micky's cuteness. I don't know what else this movie could need. Monkees are always very weird, include every type of genre, and the weirdest humor... I love them so much. This is my boyfriend Micky by the way..
SUNDAY
Today? No movie? I'm going to my friend Bryan's show, or Bry Bry who I haven't seen in 2 years! He gives me hugs and tells me i'm beautiful. I can't wait to see my hunny <33
So excited. So tonight his show can count as a movie.
And since this is my Animation blog I will be Netflixing more animations before I head off to CalArts. There are SO many movies I need to watch. With everything going on I feel so busy but I am ready for 48 hr film to start.
