This is true, I really like Ethan Suplee who most will know as Randy on My Name Is Earl, he was also in Remember The Titans though in that movie he was acting as someone that was keen to be friends with the coloured members of his team rather than be a racist like he was as Seth in this film.

I was watching Mean Girls 2 with Laura yesterday, wasn't too bad, think the first will always be better. Second seemed a lot more bitchier though.

Not to brag, but I've watched 19 films in the last 10 days as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival. One of them was 13 hours long and spread over two days. In other news, I have no life.

Ok I'll ask, what the hell was a 13 hour film about?!

Its name is Out 1, a film from the early 1970s set in Paris. There are two theatre groups holding rehearsals for a play and a young man and a young woman trying out different schemes for getting money off people. The young man starts to receive coded messages that hint at some conspiracy which seems to involve members of the two theatre groups and some other shadowy figures. It's a fascinating but, as you can imagine, exhausting film! It's also where the picture in my avatar comes from. :)

After that, me too!

One of my favourite American directors was in the audience. I asked him what he thought and he said he hated it. :'(

Still you'll never know unless you watch the whole thing! ;)

A 13 hour film.

I'm guessing that guy took all the footage and couldn't find an editor to help[ cut it back so he went, "i know what would be different............"

I don't think I've watched 19 films this year.

I seriously hope that the 13 hour film had a decent ending.
