New Bond watch

Upturned collar

Wearing a shirt with the collar upturned indicates either that you're an Elvis impersonator or a complete tool.

Gold hair

Many older ladies dye their hair GOLD these days. This is an interesting choice.

The shade of gold has an unnatural hue and would look out of place on a young child, let alone an old person. I'm not sure what the desired effect is but the hair looks so freaky on a wrinkled old face.

It looks like a wig.

Winter gear is on sale now!

June is the best month for buying Winter outdoor gear. You just have to plan ahead and not get caught up in seasonal fashions. Winter 2011/2012 fashions are now selling at half price.

Think ahead.

Malkovich makes my skin crawl

El Cid

Wow! What a film...

It has everything you could possibly ask for from a movie.

For a highly rewarding Sunday afternoon movie you can't beat Charlton Heston.

Thank U

Sale!

We try to buy all clothing, bags and footwear on sale. This saves a considerable amount of money. We can sometimes pick up a great coat at less than half price because its old stock and the seller wants to shift it.

It is very rare that we buy anything at full price.

Fang

I found a wolf teddy bear - most unusual. He makes me think of my hubby.

The Artist

Yes, this film sort-of kept our interest but I must confess that I'd sooner not have watched a silent movie.

Another Earth

This was pretty engaging and odd.

I couldn't figure out if it was the photographer girl from I Am Number 4 but it wasn't.

I wouldn't want to watch it again.

Transvestites?

If a man dresses in women's clothing, he is considered to be a transvestite.

Yet, countless women these days dress like men and even have a man's haircut. Is there a word for this? Are they also transvestites?

Crazy, Stupid Love

Films about failed marriages are pretty popular but pretty depressing. I couldn't really figure the message with this film.

Ryan Gosling seems to be appearing in quite a few films of late but I really can't figure out why. His character acted like he thought he was James Bond but actually came across more like a quite effeminate metrosexual.

The Descendents

The Descendents was another good George Clooney movie. I don't like all his films but some are pretty interesting. This one was set in Hawaii and everyone dressed not unlike Malaysians do.

Chroncile

We liked Chroncile. It started off echoing Cloverfield in terms of how the movie was presented, but Chronicle was far superior with some genuinely funny moments.

It was a very enjoyable film.

The Way

We watched The Way, a movie about the El camino de Santiago pilgrimage.

It started off pretty well but devolved into a 'baby boomer' grandude backpacker lifestyle movie. Yawn...

Backpacks

Shoulder bags can be really uncomfortable to wear, especially if you have lots to carry, and you're small... A backpack is a much better option; healthier too!
