So, a few minutes ago I just remembered what my dream was about last night. I dreamed of M. Night Shymalan. In my dream, I visited his home and he had a wife and two children and I met them all. He lived in a pretty small house and it was decorated with very random clashing tastes. For example, he'd have country crafty vibes going on and then there'd be modern sorta cheesy glass art hanging on the walls. I'm pretty sure I had a crush on him and that I was trying to steal him from his wife (I know, my alter-ego is just terrible) and that's basically all I remember. I remember the feeling of being in the room with him. I remember correcting people and saying "no, no, no. It's Sha-ma-lawn, not shymalain". I remember he liked me.
I'm not sure why I dreamed of him, but it did just remind me that The Boyfriend and I saw Lady in the Water a week ago and it was phenomenal. PHENOMENAL. He is such an amazing storyteller. He has created, in my opinion, some of the most original, interesting and creative movies of our lifetime and I hope that he continues to be successful and pump out movies of this caliber for the rest of his life. He encourages viewers to use their imagination and believe and create and envision and play...and that is so rare.

M. Night Shymalan, you rock....and you're hot.

I so envy your movie freedom. "J" just does not like to see scary movies. And you have seen two movies that I REALLY want to see. Descent and Lady in the Water. Oh man! Oh well, eventually they will be on HBO at 3AM! :)
Oh, poor poor Fred. I totally feel for you. I bet you could convince her to see Lady though...it had elements of scare factor, but for the most part it was just a creative imaginative story with interesting characters. And Paul Giamatti was phenomenal - like award-winning phenomenal. Visually, it was stunning and mysterious and story book-ish and the variety of characters and imagery and everything was just wonderful. I think she would enjoy it. It had me laughing out loud and then crying the very next minute...it's not what you expect.
