I am in nearing the homestretch of Lars Von Trier's Melancholia. Its really visually stimulating but, man, does it ever drag on. My understanding is that the dragging is an artistic choice, to mirror the depression/ waiting for the apocalypse that the characters are going through. But hey, aren't we all waiting for the apocalypse (21/12/12 #YOLO)?
I have about fifteen minutes left of the movie, this will be my third instalment. I'm trying so hard, really I am. I'm considering it research for a project I've started working on and its just reminding me that there is no fun kind of research.
Also: Kristen Dunst. I don't know. I just don't know. Used to hate her. Then I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and I thought maybe I was just being rude, that she's not that bad. But now I think I only thought that because I really liked the movie on the whole.
Also: Keifer Sutherland. What kind of a name is that?
The bottom line is that Melancholia is not coming easy. Unfortunately, I ain't no wimp-ass nancy boy and I physically can't call it quits at this point.
