A luddite blog, a geeky movie
Saturday, October 1st, 2005
I read the book “Man without a country” by Vonnegut today, in about an hour. It appears to be a $32 leftist blog entry.
I saw the movie
{Proof}
today.
I’d kinda forgotten how obsessed those right-wing academians are with ownership of ideas.
It’s based on a play.
I thought it might be geeky/nerdy, but it could have been written in 1863.
Ditto for Vonnegut.
I sort of liked {Proof} despite its flaws, and the presence of a grand total of 10 people in the audience.
It was worth going to, if only to see the trailer for
Memoirs of a Geisha
– note the online trailer is the same, but it *must* be seen on a big screen to be appreciated.
There, I just saved you 50 bucks.
