Tuesday at the Glenwood Arts theatre.
I had tickets to see 127 Hours tonight but something came up. So, I had to, reluctantly, get my money back.

Watched Blood Into Wine, the documentary about Maynard James Keenan's vineyard in northern AZ, last night. It was basically an advertisment for Caduceus wine and the AZ Wine Stronghold, along with an ad for Maynard's side project, Puscifer, along with some weird-ass humor. But buried under all that artifice is some actual quality wine documentary footage, as well as footage of the enigmatic Tool frontman being far more intimate in any interview he's ever done. Weird film, but worth watching if you are both a Tool fan and someone interested in complex, artisan food products.

Tonight:
Finally watched The Secret of Kells. Awesome animated film. Lush, unique animation, standout soundtrack, and strikes a balance between showing the usefulness of Christian faith while still acknowledging the supremacy of Paganism, Vikings, kitty cats, and all other things that are ****ing metal. |

Fact: that band? They have a side-project that you might have heard of. It's called Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

I guess, more specifically, was it a special screening or has it opened in KC? For some reason, I thought it wasn't out until December.

Skipped work, decided to go msee a movie. I was up in the air over Social-Networking and Let me in. However good SN may be , I'm glad I chose Let Me In. You'll never change allegiences with one of the mian characters so many times again in your life.

Watched the Nightmare on Elm St. remake the other night....not as bad as what I thought it'd be but not exactly great either.
Jackie Earle Haley is awesome though, love that dude. He did Robert Englund and the Freddy character justice. My main beef is that they showed Freddy wayyyyyyy too much...that was one of the things that made the original such a classic, they kept him hidden for a large part of the movie.

More specifically the Kansas International Film Festival which had some top notch screenings this year. Kudos to that team.

Watched That Evening Sun. Hal Holbrook stars as an 80-year old man who escapes from his nursing home and goes back to his farm to find that his son has rented the property to a drunk, abusive man and his family. It's basically about the rights of an old man to live his last time on the planet how he sees fit. This is a pretty good drama. The lines between good-guy and bad-guy are somewhat blurred (though perhaps not blurred enough in the case of the antagonists). Well worth putting on your Netflix queue. Holbrook gives a devastating performance. The film is essentially a Southern Gothic version of Disney/Pixar's Up.
