The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

[fabrisse]

I finally got to see it today. I loved it.

My friend since high school didn't care for most of it, but another friend of hers, who's becoming a friend of mine, adored it as much as I did. K (new friend) has finally felt comfortable about revealing her inner geek to our mutual friend since I do it continually and unapologetically.

I also took the Elders to their first art museum yesterday. The one whose birthday it was kept asking if the paintings were originals.

I really want to see the Imaginarium- it looks like fun.

Also, I am somewhat sad the Elders couldn't hang out with us when I was in DC, though it may have been a little much for them. As it is, I really applaud your efforts and wish I had half the time, patience or will to do the same.

It's an interesting movie on many levels. I'd love to know if anything might have been different had Ledger lived. Jude Law really channeled Ledger in his bit. Depp went in a completely different direction for his part, and I think the Colin Farrell sequence was a little long. Overall, I enjoyed it. Christopher Plummer and Tom Waits were really good in their scenes too. Definitely one to see on the big screen if you can, just for the fantasy bits.
