Friday Movie Night

Watched two extremely different movies tonight at co-worker's place.


The first movie we watched is an old Hollywood classic called, Sunset Bolevard. 
It's very unlike the movie we see nowadays. It's slow and the story line is simple.
The movie is about an old star who lives in her own world, dreaming to return to the stage where she used to be again.

Famous quote from the main character, Norma:
"I am big. It's the pictures that got small."

I find the movie enjoyable. It's interesting to see such glamourous Hollywood classics.








The second movie is quite new and shot in an interesting way. It's called the Blue Valentine.

I like the way it's filmed as you feel you are part of the story or watching the story unfolds through a zoom lens. The movie is about love, relationship and family life. It's very raw and realistic. It's a great movie. A big thumb up!









Maybe I will write about both movies more later. Now I just want to go to bed!
