Now That We're Here, We May As Well Go Too Far

I just watched Elephant, which was breifly blogged by Mr. R. It was really good, but it didn't change my life. Maybe I didn't watch it in the right setting or in the right mood. That really effects the outcome of a film.

This song is so amazing. I can't stop listening to it.

I actually thought the film was a bit odd. I DO love the re-telling of the same story from various vantage-points but the suggestion that the killers were gay was a lame way of explaining away their anger (and perpetuates negative views of gays for the conservative right).

You didn't miss anything. Or we missed the same things. I do like his style though.

I'm gonna go give the tune a listen. Relatedly: www.saidthegramophone.com/
