V for Vendetta. and by 'vendetta' I mean 'awesomeness'


So the boy and I went to see V for Vendetta last night. We were supposed to go with Beth and Shahar while the rest of the kids went to see Syriana (which Beth and I have both already seen). B and her man decided to order pizza and stay in though.

How was the movie? Amazing. All knife fights and revolutions and "Britain Prevails!" The cast was top notch, the writing was rather political, the blood was profuse. Everything a girl could want, plus a new phrase to live by- "A revolution without dancing, is a revolution not worth having!". Natalie Portman is precious and totally hot with her shaved head. Hugo Weaving (the man behind the mask of V) has such a distinctive voice and did a brilliant job having character with no face. Altogether, I've already decided I need to memorize several speeches and buy it immediately.

After the movie it was grits and waffles at The Flying Pan and then home. A quiet well-behaved night for me. Not so much for the rest of my girls I heard. Troublemakers all around.

Tomorrow is Thijs' birthday... well today actually, we've already had a drink to celebrate. In an admirable way, he's stretching the whole thing into a three day affair. Roof drinks tonight, dinner out tomorrow on the day, and a barbeque on Tuesday, because Wednesday is a holiday and no one has class. Very ambitious. Look out bbq salmon. mmmmmmmmm. Pictures should be in plenty.

Well its my bedtime. So long and thanks for all the fish.
Abby

I went to see that movie with Jeff and we both thoroughly enjoyed it! I liked how reminiscent it was of 1984, and call me crazy (crazy!) but I definitely didn't know that V was Hugo Weaving until I read the review in The Tiger. No wonder I loved his voice so much! The alliteration got me, I just was mesmerized.
