Just saw the flick 'The Man Who Cried'
with Johnny Depp (I'd go straight for a swing at that one) and
Cate Blanchette (I'd stay gay for a romp in that magnificence)

I found the format of this story telling so engaging.
The lack of detail left it up to your imagination to fill in the blanks.
But the depth of detail of the brief scenes was just enough information for you to
really grasp the mostly one conclusion.

I love that film making is coming up with unique ways of telling the story.
And this style first came to my attention through "Papillion" with Steve Mcqueen.
(A almost 3 hour flick that was made so by quick shots of the story that left you to know what went on)

But this flick, does it a bit different and quite masterfully.
If you get a chance to see it, check it out.
The scenes are breathtaking.

And speaking of breathtaking scenery,
"Onegin" ( pronouned Oneyegin) with Ralph Fines is another one that is without a doubt the best videography.
Some of the shots are so exquisite that you want to freeze frame it a second to let the beauty sink in.
And the entire film is racked with these shots. Just one after another.
Of course, the story just ended up pissing me off.
I hate unhappy, unrequited love endings.

Like wasnt it "Remains of the Day" with Anthony Hopkins where he was longing to be with that chick and just couldnt speak up.
Ya ya ya, it was the nature of the times, it was the culture, but for god sake man, just speak up and boink the girl. She wanted it too, ya know.
It was a while ago I saw that but i feel like I was left with that feeling about it.
Which is kinda like Onegin. Really cant stand those left in longing type flicks.

It's kinda like when I see photographs of things in motion.
I'm always left feeling like they are in suspended animation and they're going to get tired.
Silly I know, it's only a picture, but i have the most amazing picture of a very cute baby wolf in the exact midst of eating a blade of grass.
Lips pulled up, eyes all scrunched, teeth clinging to grass.... suspended animation. I love that picture but at the same time, When is the guy gonna just chew it up and swallow.

ramblings. got a bit off track there I did.

It's all well and good to be a queer (I is one my own self) but one needn't be a fanatic about it ;-) I think people are entitled to dispensation for enjoying a little something different every so often without being called "straight."

umm. Kim .....
I know posts tend to not relay intent or emotion,
but am I getting a hostiley vibe?

I mean,
my comments had no intention behind them other than to state the strength of a desire in a old cliche kinda way.
My actual beliefs on straight/ homo/ bi/ trans/gender fluid.....
are hardly reflected in that minor comment of my blog.

Seems a bit extraneous to garner a reaction from you based on a few syllables strewn about...no?

and if your intent also isnt reflected,
feel free to expound......

oh and by the by...
do I know you??
