Fun day.
Today was filled with interning and lunch. But I went to a screening of a movie tonight.
The father of an old friend from high school wrote and directed a movie in four different stories about people moving on.
The first was a man who was preparing to start another job at another company and spending his last night out with coworkers. Then the second story was a bride and a minister in a motel room, but the twist was that they were role playing. TThe third was this man who sat next to a woman on the bus and gave her an assortment of flowers and she reluctantly accepted, but also dealt with her husband bringing up strange topics. Then the last one, my favorite, was about a family that was preparing to move to a new home. The wife was having anxiety and the teenage daughter wanted to be with the boy and didn't want to leave him which ended up with her getting in an accident.
It was well-written and well-performed and I'm glad I saw it. It was written by a local man, so it wasn't as big as Hollywood produced. If I have any favorite movie in general, well, then I have a few that I love. But my number one favorite ever is Chicago, the movie version with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger. I can go on an on about how much and why I love it, but I'll do that in another posts.
This movie, Something Better Somewhere Else, was also very good. And this movie, or any movie I see for the first time, I always say, "It doesn't top Chicago. And I don't think anything will.
Tomorrow will be a busy afternoon, however.
