look closer...

Of course, here's the great-movies-I saw-this-weekend portion of the blog.

On Friday night, I watched an emotionally eye-opening and revelatory movie, the fantastically brilliant American Beauty. I'd definitely recommend it.


Favorite quote:
"My job consists of basically masking my contempt for the assholes in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that doesn't so closely resemble Hell."

And then I watched the less-revelatory, but also fantastically brilliant Back to the Future.

Favorite quote(s):
"Well you're not gonna be picking a fight, Dad... Da.. Daddy-o!"
"Oh, and one more thing, if you guys ever have kids and one of them, when he's eight years old, accidentally sets fire to the living room rug, go easy on him."

So Mary-Kate and Ashley's new surely-awesome line The Row is featured in some foreign Vogue. It must be an old photoshoot because Ashley's hair is dark, but they look sulkily-gorgeous.

And more recently, blonde Ashley took to the streets in a lovely ensemble.
But doesn't she just look great in anything? Even the Prince-at-the-Superbowl-esque scarf. He's such a trendsetter.

please. please, please let me keep my respect for you and tell me you didn't see the olsen movie. oh all right i did. but i was young. and i threw up halfway through. well i wasnt that young it was like 3 years ago and i'd been stuffing my face with popcorn all night. so that might have something to do with it. but i think m-k and ash had a little something to do with it. i LOVE american beauty and i kind of liked back to the future too. it's got matthew j. fox, yes?
