   Oh, *love* City of God! Love love!   
      
   Ok I've calmed down now, lol.  But I can't believe I forgot to mention that   
   one. Brain fart. Thanks for the head's up on STEVIE and POP & ME,  they seem   
   right up my alley. I keep hearing about A BOY'S LIFE and I keep missing it,   
   in theaters, on tv, even Netflix wouldn't send it to me (well, they tried   
   but it was lost in transport somewhere). This might be a good thing since I   
   have some anger managment issues when it comes stories about abused children   
   or animals. Still, I feel like I ought to see it.   
      
   In terms of older movies, I've decided to be a little bit in love with   
   Stellan Skarsgard lately (random I know) so we rented ABERDEEN. It's a   
   British movie (shot in Glasgow in 2000) by a Norwegian director, and while   
   there are aspects of it that bug me, I still recommend it as a warm,   
   thoughtful character study. My fawning adoration aside, I think Skarsgard   
   gives an amaazing performance here.
