"Burn After Reading" review

so i went and saw the Coen's Brother's "Burn After Reading" opening weekend and it was pretty damn fantastic. the trailer lays out the plot, but certainly doens't give anything away, or give the brilliant performances justice. Frances McDormand is such a great actress that i couldn't stand her character, a true sign of great acting. there was just something desperately pathetic about her, which is why Frances is so great, she's always able to provoke emotions you least expect out of her audience. while there just wasn't enough Tilda Swinton in my opinion. John Malkovich needs to be in more films, because watching him reminded me of why he inspires me as an actor and why "Being John Malkovich" is more relevant every year. Brad stole every scene he was in, while Clooney was pitch perfect as a giddy, yet clueless sleazeball. the movie starts out a bit slow, but progresses quickly and its denouement is executed to perfection to wrap the movie up the way it's meant to, quickly and hilariously. the tone and sentiment are the exact opposite of the Coen Brother's last film, the Oscar winner for Best Picture "No Country for Old Men," but the film is utterly delightful and definitely worth seeing in the theatre.

i went with a former friend [i write former because he never responded to my request for a review and we know how i can get when that happens] who was just as excited to see the movie as i was, that he went so far as to dress up like Brad's character "Chad Feldheimer" in the movie! My rating: 9.2/10

london fashion week favorites - Jil Sander

so fashion week is still happening. how you may ask? well it's technically a month long and starts in New York at Bryant Park and is sponsored by Mercedes-Benz. fashion week then happens in London, Milan (where it is now) and next week it will be in Paris, (where i'll finally get to see what Nicholas Ghesquiere has come up with for Balenciaga!) while for now i get to bask in the elegance, refinement and just sheer coolness of Jil Stuart's Spring Summer 2009 Collections designed by Raf Simons, and now so do you.

Herpes and Love Affair

so Hercules and Love Affair did a DJ set at The Vagabond and it was pretty meh, like most DJ sets are. the staff of the bar were in togas and wore laurels (my secret favorite fashion accessory,) and for some reason there was a Drag Queen.

and "The New Times" photographer was there and took a bunch of pictures you can see here.

and here is Hercules & Love Affair's "Blind"

and "Hercules's Theme"
