compulsion..

My my.. i had my fill of intense men these past few days
Joaquin Pheonix, Eric Bana, Ralf Fiennes, Jake Gyllenhaal..
Robin..;p
It must be the highest concentration of movies
i had ever watched in such a short span of time


But the most intense award definatly goes to Joaquin Pheonix
He was up to his usual brooding antics in walk the line
but he had applied himself with such craft that
there were times when i see the agony in his eyes
and i could feel myself falling in love with him


Therein lies my problem..
why does my heart goes out to Joaquin?
Do i like my men constantly suffering??
Those men in constant turmoil with themselves
who have too many inner demons to deal with
that it shows in their eyes..
the haunted soulful look ..


Looks like I must have some serious issues man...


Anywaz Munich is great great story
told from a different perspective
about the long-standing war between Israel and Palestine
I have never been a fan of Eric Bana
Always thought his body has always been too bulky to fit his face
Especially for The HULK *gag*
But his gaunt look in Munich becomes him.
And I must say the grey-tinted lighting
and the stylish costumes
have made a fan out of me...


And somehow the movie has given me the urge to cook
no other movie has given me such compulsion since
some long-forgotten ..
straight-to-video ..
Sarah Michelle Gellar's movie
on the magic of cooking


I think its the constant sceenes of Eric cooking
huge meals for his assasination team..
and how they bond over meals
good food unifies the world
If everybody sits down over a meal
anything can be settled ;p


if only...


hmmm... maybe i should go food shopping:
mozzarella cheese, smoked salmon, pesto sauce, pasta, portebello mushrooms..
bell peppers, rocket lettuce, pumkin, spinach...
hmmm i can see the menue in my mind already..
ahh but now my stomach callls
and no amount of imagination can satisfy it
soo it will be bah pao for now ...


the sight of shore moves further away... the sands have shifted.. everything has changed .. but i cannot control it... powerless is what i feel.. helplessness... maybe not...
