Movie Madness...

'The Interpreter' rocks!
Sean Penn's delicious.
Nicole Kidman's awesome and sooooo real.
love her languages and vespa and stricken eyes and intensity.
the part where she held the President at gun-point got me...
i was crying like a pok.
And i don't really know why...
but i guess it's coz' the words that he wrote meant so much to her
she had memorized the entire paragraph
And this man who had once led the country into freedom
and who once believed the words
was now the country's oppressor
and here he was. 25 years later.
Forced to revisit those words again.
by a girl he never knew.
who's family he'd taken away
a girl who had memorized those words
and internalized them
and lived by them.
only to have them betrayed - as ALL her loved ones fell
to his gun
