"(To Steve Carell) Dude: teach me."
We are told that, in her youth, Jane Austen wrote "burlesques of popular romances". (Which is why she gets the cameo in "The Pirates!", you see?) And what, you might ask, is a burlesque? Well, it's more or less what it sounds like, but if you need an example....
*smiles*
And what's funny is, when I saw "Pride & Prejudice" with Keira Knightley-- and I guess that she was 'seeking a friend' back in 2005, too, eh?-- I sorta vaguely remembered reading the novel, kinda.... (There was a letter!).... And when I started watching this, I sorta vaguely remembered having seen it before, kinda.... (There was a box!)....
And, although I don't like the idea of "required reading", (even now! After all, anything that lumps Jane in with the Brontes and Dickens and Chekhov and Tolstoy is worthy of some suspicion!), I have to admit, that, as a Steve Carell fan, this movie was sorta required watching for me. ;)
But that was okay.... I got through it. ^^
And, although I'm against the idea of education-by-compulsion-- "And now, nothing remains, except to assure you in the most animated language of the violence of my affections": required rimes with *unrequited*, you see?-- I'm just gonna dip into the bag of hypocrisy, just this once, and say: that the entire Shakespeare Club ought to forcibly compelled to watch this movie.... And you know what I mean!
Although, yes, George certainly has his problems, just like Fitz does....
(I mean, it's not as though this were some novel, say, by the author of Crime & Punishment, where Bazarov is as bad as he really is, but the tarts of Fulham are like swans floating across a placid sea of wisdom.... Does that make sense?)
And, I don't know, I hope that all of my reviews are good.... but I hope that this one is the best.
"I always thought that there was something wrong with me, because it had never happened to me.... But now I realize that it was just waiting for you...."
"I am waiting for, that newer speech, that, that will do me good.... I am waiting for the introduction, for when the film, finally begins....
I'm waiting at, the end of the world, where even the atoms feel giddy....
I'm waiting at,
The iceberg's edge,
For November's heat,
The end of physics--
And all of the things ungiven...." (Ich Warte, ~"I'm waiting": Kudos to Blixa Bargeld.)
But none of us are waiting for the Battle of the Nile, or for fucking Fallujah.... And Jane & Steve, at least, can tell you that....
And, anyway, I like to think of myself as a very Aquarian boy-- February 10th, actually. (1989). And, (just like 'The Hobbit' doesn't start on a Wednesday for no reason), February is a good month, since it belongs to Juno Februa, Juno the Purifier....
*shrugs*
*starts dancing*
Let the Sun, shine!
No, really, I want to see the baby riding bareback on the horsie! *giggles*
Ok, for once I'll explain something-- that's basically just a fancy allusion to the number 19.... And, marriage. *nods*
.....
But I really like the moon, and the eighteenth card, because the moon, turns.... and the moon, shines.
So.... "don't make it bad.... then you can start, to make it better."
So I'm listening to "Hey Jude", and my mom-- who's one of these, let me tell you how it was, people-- just walks past it, like, I have these, Very Important, that are, So Important....
*sighs* "So let it out, and let it in...."
You know how our parents are like, Let me tell you, I remember.... they were probably stoned and on acid at the time, I bet they don't remember which band did "Hey Jude".... (Was it Pink Floyd????).... I know my mom doesn't, and I know who else doesn't....
I'd swear it on his fucking box of bibles.
And then there's the other guy, the google guy. Well, google is satan, okay. I can't get anything from those people.
And people with these very important.... shit to smear, you know.
"Well you know that's a fool who plays it cool by making this world a little colder."
"So let it out and let it in."
"You have found her, now go and get her, and remember, to let her into your heart, and then you begin to make it better."
I used to like those clever lines out of books, you know, "I am more an antique Roman than a Dane....", you know. "Pro...." No, 'Hey....' Hey, Caelio, did I ever tell you, how I met your mother?
"Thus do I counsel you, my friends...." Because there is advice, but.... it's, it doesn't even have to be advice.... it's not even a letter....
Go, ahead, turn it up.
NA, NA, NANANA, NANANA, HEY JUDE.
NA, NA, NANANA, NANANA, HEY JUDE.
NA, NA, NANANA, NANANA, HEY JUDE.
And the other song that I really like, is "Come Together", because 'one and one and one, is three'.... and I'm a holy roller. ;)
