Oh like you aren't busy...

• I haven't been posting but that doesn't mean I'm not watching some amazing movies or listening to some killer hit (when I really should be doing H/W...like right now...oh well Stats will have to wait. :)  

What movies I've been watching:
          -
          -Rebel Without a Cause --- James Dean <3 yes...I too am in love with him...I mean his acting :)...Sal Mineo as well. I enjoyed this movie mainly because it was a classic and I'm really trying to learn more about the history of film making and even though it wasn't a film noir classic it was still old enough to see the techniques used in the 50's and how they compare to today's more evolved styles of filmaking.

          -50/50 --- Being able to watch a movie at a theatre rather than on my laptop (Netflix :D) screen really made me realize how much a theatre can enhance the experience...bigger screen better suroundsound...it really allows you to get into a movie.

          -Drive --- Experimentation is a risky thing in the movie making industry because something either works or doesn't...there is no kinda...and Drive to me seemed like a really experimental film sound(Music and the times when the sound is muted out) and image wise. I'm not gonna say it did it for me because I really can't say. But I did like it because of its daring ways. If you have seen it you might have noticed the scene when the "Driver"(Ryan Gosling :)) stabbed "Bernie" and the scene went into showing just the shadows of the two characters...I personally have never seen that before...thought it was quite interesting way to shoot a scene.

         -James Dean Era  --- More James Dean....enough said...lol

         -3:10 to YUMA --- In my Intro to Film class we have been watching a couple movies and this one really had an impact on me. Being a Western, I really didn't expect much (never have been into westerns) but boy did this movie change my views...everything from its color , sound and camera movements was just amazing. I really enjoyed watching this film unravel all that a Western has to offer. I will definitely be seeing more.


As far as the music I have been listening to, well I must say Spanish Rock has had a hold on me all weekend...Wonder how long it will last.
            Here is a taste of some :
