It's Been a While...

I have not been able to eloquently articulate how I have felt about the movies I've seen in the past three weeks, so I just haven't been writing. I have been watching (mostly) really good movies lately, however. Since I last wrote, I've seen (for the first time):

• Outrage- A documentary showing the hypocrisy of closeted gay politicians. Extremely interesting, and I suggest that you watch it. They spotlighted specific politicians, which I liked, and they showed their voting records when it comes to gay rights. The numbers were disgusting. Gay people voting against gay marriage, or equal tax benefits, is absolutely insane. I also liked it because it had a very positive message encouraging people to come out. Be proud!! You can do much more good if you are yourself!
• Natural Born Killers- I've been interested in this movie for a long time. I'm not exactly sure why I never got around to watching it, but I'm glad I did. I really enjoyed it. It was so weird, dark, and also extremely funny. The editing of this movie was probably the most interesting part. It was like no other movie I've ever seen. Also, the writing and the acting were amazing as well. I recommend this one too, but not to the faint of heart. 
• Antichrist- I found this movie on a list of most disturbing films, and it definitely deserves place on that list. Parts of it were hard to watch, but it's one of those movies that I couldn't stop thinking about after I watched it. There are so many layers to it. Watch it so that we can talk about it together!
• Bridesmaids- So good and so funny. It was way more than just a stupid comedy or chick-flick, and that's why I think it was so good. I want to watch it again when I'm in a better mood than I was, but still, not even a bad mood could make this movie not funny. So many memorable moments. I love Judd Apatow movies!
• 25th Hour- This is another movie I got from that list of most disturbing movies, and I have to say, I was disappointed. Maybe it takes a lot for me to get disturbed, but mostly this movie was just boring. I love Edward Norton, too, so this was really sad. The highlight was one monologue that he did. I don't know how it could be perceived as disturbing. I don't get it.
• The Last King of Scotland- I enjoyed this movie a lot. Too bad I missed about 40 minutes altogether due to DVD skipping. (Damn you, Netflix). From what I saw though, it was very good. I was riveted, and Forest Whitaker was brilliant. The craziness of his character was both laughable and disturbing. I want to get it again so that I can watch the entire thing.
