another fortnight, another review dump

lxvii. ghost world, daniel clowes
i remember reading this really really fast after seeing the movie a long time ago and didn't really like it. i read it again quite fast and it seemed so much deeper this time, so much more jaded. it's probably me. now i want to see the movie again.

lxviii. american psycho, bret easton ellis
holy wow, the beginning of this book is so good. so gradual. and then it explodes everywhere like a bloody watermelon.

xxxix. black swan
combined with finishing the book above in the same week, this made me feel extra crazy. good movie though, overall i thought it was well done and the acting was good, it's almost sad that acting is 'good' these days when nothing is jarringly incompetent. natalie portman's neck is so small. also notch up another on the winona ryder comeback trail.

i started watching party down!! so good.

p.s. is 'movie' not a word anymore? i think my spellcheck is royally screwed up
