Last weekend I went to Virgin Mega store in Piccadilly and I’ve spent their almost 2 hours .. diving throw all the DVD’s and CD’s …I completely lost track of time… I wanted to buy a good DVD .. a very good one .. the best one ever made by Human Kind…just couldn't find it...but I knew it should be out there, somewhere in a hiden shelve…
So I kept searching and searching ….
Of course it took me a long time to decide…don’t know yet why but I always had this great talent for having difficulties in choosing between whatever we are talking about:
The other day for instance I went out and I was so between Corona and a glass of red wine ( which may occur to you have much in common) that I kept staring at the bartender for at least 2 minutes…. Which is a lot considering that the bar was crowded and that I wasn’t definitely trying to seduce the guy …. Well as you can see I am very straightforward when the hard task of making choices is concerned.
So…I ended up buying “Secretary” ….. Ok Ok for the one's who might have seen it ….don’t laugh at me…I read the plot ok? And for your knowledge maybe that’s what tricked me. The movie has 7.2 stars out of 10 and was awarded in “Fantasporto” “London Movies festival “ “Canada Festival “ etc… It looked very good to me… =)
I went home …I tried to create the perfect atmosphere: no lights…. popcorns… I stretched my legs and I was ready to see the amazing acquisition……
I prefer to leave all the comments about the movie to your consideration….
At the beginning I must say that I believed somehow that something would happen …at some point that would make the movie… a masterpiece … but instead.. I kept absent minded all the time: 1st thinking that I should stop the DVD player… run outside the house… and before anyone could see just jump in the DVD till it would be triumphantly squeezed…. 2nd I felt an awkward desire to kill the main actress whose voice was so but so irritating that I couldn’t help myself from wanting to break her neck …. 3rd I thought that one day my children may step into it at home… “I need to HIDE IT” - I thought…
While all these thoughts were crossing my mind …. I laughed so much….but so much that I think it might have worthed to have bought that peace of junk….
