Movies.

I posted a note on my Facebook asking for movie recs. I need to watch more movies, being a film student and all. And since I'm going to have a lot of recovery time on my hands this summer, I feel like now's the perfect time to start. I figured I'll watch as many as I can, and then recap my thoughts here.

#1. Shutter Island.

Going in, I had heard mixed reviews about this movie. It seemed like people either loved it or hated it. My thoughts? I liked it very much. Normally, I'm not for horror/thriller things, but this one didn't give me nightmares. The crazy lady who shh'd us in the trailer and the film, still freaked me out... but other than that and a few small jumps (that, and cuddling Allie, my movie watching buddy and her new puppy under a blanket), I faired pretty well.

Let's talk technical. The lighting in this movie was incredible! I was so inspired. And Leo's performance of course, as always, was amazing! I would definitely recommend this movie to people, even if they already know what happens at the end. I knew the ending coming in (from hearing/seeing people talk about it), and it didn't ruin my watching experience in the slightest.

Let's talk movies... and anything else!
