Movie Review: Let the Right One In
Last night, we went to see the Swedish vampire flick Let the Right One In.
A quick highlight:
PROS
- Really great atmosphere & mood. The desolation and starkness of the cinematography perfectly highlighted the characters’ emotions.
- Well-done death scenes; quite poetic and visually appealing.
- The audio surrounding Eli’s hunger/feeding was the scariest thing in the movie...
Halloween Movie Marathon
Aaron & I have been moving through our Halloween movie list at a pretty good pace. SInce he’s super into Hollywood-ized stuff, I’m offering an alternative viewpoint:
Watched:
The Ring (8/10): One of the best scary movies out there for atmosphere, but the special effects and over-messaging lose me a bit)
Ringu (9/10): The backstory trumps the US remake’s; plus, the TV scene...
I finally moved! Homeless no more!
Just went to The Wrestler premier. David Blaine was behind us, and talked the whole damn time.
Happy 1st Anniversary New York!
I’m living in a hotel — like Eloise!!
