A must watch movie

Mary and Max is probably one of the most wonderful films I've seen all year. Combining the talents of Toni Collette, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Eric Bana, this fabulous stopmotion claymation teaches us all the valuable lesson of accepting ourselves. Yet another great claymation written by Adam Elliot, I suggest you all see it asap.

1 of a kind: love story

Tonight I had the pleasure of viewing what I believe to be the most wonderful portrayal of a love story. I won't go into the details of the plot, just to abstain from ruining it for anyone who would like to see it.

This film, released in 1971, involves two characters, Harold and Maude. Harold, being a 20 year old boy, somewhat focuses on the morbid side of life, while Maude, who is 79 3/4, seems to live every day as if it were her last.

Love is an interesting topic, and is very difficult to capture in film. However I seem to think very highly of this film because of how it portrays love. You'll have to watch it to see what I mean by this. And I encourage you to do just that.

I only have one more thing to say: What kind of flower would you like to be?

Glad to be back

It's been nearly three years since the first and only time I have ever posted on my beloved blogger. However in order to redeem myself, I intend to do a much better job of posting in the future. This blog will address every day life and what it entails. Mainly the theme will revolve around reviews of movies, books, and music. However it will also contain life experiences.

I hope you enjoy.
-John.
