Whenever they serve grits with breakfast in our company cafeteria, I always think of this line from My Cousin Vinny. And I can’t let this entry go by without linking to my favorite Vinny-Mona Lisa exchange.
On the topic of movies, I watched Run Lola Run the other day. What a cool movie: lots of action, suspense, and a cool techno soundtrack. I won’t give away too much, but it’s one of those films that shows you how the slightest change in your life can have a drastic effect on how things turn out (a similar concept was used in Sliding Doors, which was a romance, not an action movie). The title character’s boyfriend gets mixed up with some gangster-types and she has 20 minutes to fix the situation. The movie takes off from there. The music, as I mentioned, was pretty cool, and it reminded me of a couple tracks on Georgio Moroder’s Cat People soundtrack.
Cat People. Another cool movie of a totally different type.
