Sunday evening OT

 


Nearly posted this on GT. Oops! 

Last night I rewatched Shanghai Triad for the first time since college. It's as good as I remember, but also watching art house films may be one of the reasons I was depressed. Or maybe it's the other way around.

Was young BC/C miserable because of depressing movies, or drawn to depressing movies because she was full of angst? The whole movie isn't depressing; it's beautiful to look at, the writing is tight, characters have arcs. It's easy to see why it got so much attention and nominations back in 1995. That said... I didn't feel better about humanity at the end.

 

 


That's about it. Here's Alice, who came bounding over to my dad when she saw him harvesting some lettuce for dinner. 😅 And yes, she was rewarded.
