Burn After Reading

Burn After Reading, the romantic/ironic/sometimes hard to follow comedy with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and bunch of other famous people was definitely something new and worthy of the 90 minutes spent not doing much need physics hw.

I'd like to say only one thing about it: it's a beautiful example of the chaos we keep speaking of in class. The insignificant events that escalate into full fledged horrors simply due to misunderstading, wrong-place-wrong-time-ness, and equally as random human emotion. It really rings true to the "butterfly flapping its wings on one continent causing a hurricane on the next" concept.

I know this is vague, but if any of you have the time to watch this, I would definitely recommend it. (Just brace yourself for an opening half hour of hard to follow randomness, but it clears up quick after that).

  1. Sounds good. I don't see much commentary on your blog. Have you invited others to "follow" you?

  2. I enjoyed this film by the Coen Brothers. Not one of their best but a sound film with some flaws. It was very funny and quite enjoyable but I think it could have been a little better knowing what them and the actors that had were capable of. I would definitely recommend it however.
