I cannot believe it is almost MAY!
Recently I have watched...
15- Boogie Nights - what a great and funny movie. I thought the amount of acting power alone would be worth watching, and so many of the characters where outstanding. I loved Julianne Moore, I find her to be such a powerful actress.
16- Gloria Steinem - In her words: very nice documentary with her personal commentary, interview style.
17- Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - enjoyed this more than I thought I would, edge of your seat thriller.
Finishing...
7. Truman Capote - In Cold Blood - I was familiar with the story, and had read Capote's biography. So it was more for closure's sake that I read the book. Enjoyed it quite a bit although I am beginning to get bored as I approach the ending.

Movie 14
Yesterday I saw 21 Jump Street. What a funny movie! It has a spin of old school 80's teenage comedy about high school but with a 21st century twist. I found it a little long, arriving at the prom scene wondering where it was going. Although that ending was insanely priceless.

Update
So I have been gone for quite a while, graduate school stuff was consuming my life. But, a decision has been reached, and I know where I shall be attending school come fall --- yipee!
Anyhow here is an updated list of what I've been doing. Hopefully I can make it a little more detailed at a later point.
Latest Movies
5. 50/50 - Good movie, although I am always disappointed at therapists depicted in media.
6. RIO - Great soundtrack and voice acting.
7. Swingers - My boyfriend had me watch this, such a great movie! Vince Vaughn is such a a-hole in this movie, yet hilarious.
8. Hunger Games - meh... I didn't care for the liberties they took with certain parts of the book, but that's the name of the game when a book gets turned into a movie. Had I not read the book I would have loved it.
9. King of Kong - Well I did not care to watch this at first, a documentary about beating Donkey Kong did not really seem quite my palete, but boy was I wrong. This documentary sucks you in and keeps you glued until the end. Watch it!
10. It's Kind of a Funny Story - meh.
11. A Better Life - Sad, true to life, great acting, especially touching if you have lived through being a new immigrant.
12. I Am Comic - Documentary about what being a comic.
13. Game Change - gosh if I didn't think the woman was certifiable before... I sure do now.
Latest Books
3. Hunger Games - What else is there to say about this trilogy?
4. Catching Fire
5. Mockingjay
6. The Buddha in the Attic - A short novel written from the point of view of the collective experience of mail order Japanese brides. Lovely.
