June update rollup
30-Jun-2005
I haven't posted in a while because I made the major decision to
leave my job. I gave my notice and will be leaving next month. The sixth month has been hectic and crazy and I haven't had much time or stuff to report.
What have I done for fun in the past couple of weeks? Well, I
watched two favorite films again: Office Space and Brokedown
Palace.
I don't need to write a review of the classic Office
Space. Just buy it, watch it and laugh.
Brokedown Palace is a modern-day Midnight Express starring
Claire Danes, Kate Beckinsale and Bill Pullman. Danes and
Beckinsale play two naive American teens vacationing in
Thailand who are arrested for drug smuggling, and Pullman plays
their defense lawyer.
This is the first movie that brought the gorgeous Beckinsale to
my attention. She is so young & beautiful in this film, I ended
up feeling an extra something for the plight of the two girls. It's
a good drama with good performances.
