mikeborgia's Review and Opinion:
Darkly funny, seemlessly brilliant story about a man struggling to do something of value in his artistic life before he assumably dies from an illness. It's kind of somber, but I love it. It pulls out your emotions and evokes thought. wow now there's a concept!

Synopsis:
Theater director Caden Cotard is mounting a new play. His life catering to suburban blue-hairs at the local regional theater in Schenectady, New York is looking bleak. His wife Adele has left him to pursue her painting in Berlin, taking their young daughter Olive with her. His therapist, Madeleine Gravis, is better at plugging her best-seller than she is at counseling him. A new relationship with the alluringly candid Hazel has prematurely run aground. And a mysterious condition is systematically shutting down each of his autonomic functions, one by one. Worried about the transience of his life, he leaves his home behind. He gathers an ensemble cast into a warehouse in New York City, hoping to create a work of brutal honesty. He directs them in a celebration of the mundane, instructing each to live out their constructed lives in a growing mockup of the city outside. Somewhere in Berlin, his daughter is growing up under the questionable guidance of Adele's friend, Maria. His lingering attachments to both Adele and Hazel are causing him to helplessly drive his new marriage to actress Claire into the ground. Sammy and Tammy, the actors hired to play Caden and Hazel, are making it difficult for the real Caden to revive his relationship with the real Hazel. The textured tangle of real and theatrical relationships blurs the line between the world of the play and that of Caden's own deteriorating reality. The years rapidly fold into each other, and Caden buries himself deeper into his masterpiece. As he pushes the limits of his relationships, both personally and professionally, a change in creative direction arrives in Millicent Weems, a celebrated theater actress who may offer Caden the break he needs.

Haha, makes me die every time.

Actually, the Oscars aren't for another month, and I found the nominations on the internet.
Yeah, I think the nominations were good. Thank God that Heath was nominated; I would've exploded if he wasn't.

Yeah that's the one let down with new YouTube stuff since it's usually disabled for embedding since the record companies don't want it to be embeded all over the place... Kind of a stupid thing really since it's free promotion.

I was reading over the lyrics, thats where my emo comment came from. Certainly not meant in a derogatory way, just an observation of the lyrics :)

Ah yeah but I hhhaaatteeee Mac too... It's just too different, I like my second mouse button!

Open source OS's are probably the future.

Actually I was talking to someone else about this, and the fundemental problem with Windows is that they don`tknow how to actually run a business.

Since, every time they come out with a new OS everyone buys it and then it takes about 4 years for everyone to finally get situated with that OS, but then Microsoft realizes they aren`t making any money- so they release a new OS, which makes new programs not work on the old and forces you to upgrade, but sometimes you can`t improve something that is just working.

What they should do is provide annual licences to people, you pay a fee every year, say 20 bucks, and you get the updates etc, and it will over time improve your OS gradually... Then you`d go from XP to whatever else, but they`d be making mooolah and wouldn`t complain and shit would be better!

Hmmm Vista fucking sucks dude... For some reason my keys just change, like I can`t do proper aposterphies and if I want to make a question mark it turns into an accented E, look ÉÉÉ
