Two reviews... One very good... one very bad!
The good. A Scanner Darkly. What an amazing movie! Originally filmed in real life the director then hired a team of animators to draw over each of the filmed frames! Not only original but an amazing story. It follows a cop trying to find the source of a powerful drug that is taking over the L.A. area. Great movie, great story, outstanding cast. This is a definite purchase, I just can't say enough about it!
The Bad. Folks at work kept telling me... "Hey, you watch South park... have you seen Orgasmo?" and no I hadn't, so it was lent to me. Yes someone actually owns this movie. Why, I have yet to figure out. Other than this film, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are geniuses. I am glad this was their first as they only went up from there. I think I managed to force out 3 laughs during the movie. Don't bother!
and last but not least, a classic Alberta sunset.

I've never heard of A Scanner Darkly, but the style sounds a lot like Heavy Metal, which I loved. I'll have to check it out. As for Orgasmo... I took one look at it in the video store and knew I'd never watch it. Maybe if I was 13 again...?
Very nice shot of that sunset. Love the contrast!
