Ecumenical Liberation Army

Saw a great movie last night: Network, starring Faye Dunaway, William Holden, and my boy Bobby Duvall. To say that it's a bit prescient is understating that fact. I would've never guessed that a movie about television that came out in 1976 would hold up almost thirty years later. While renting this particular movie in Blockbuster, I had a realization: that store is terrible. I know this may seem like the grumblings of some lame hipster, but honestly, the selection is so sparse. I went in ready to rent the first of those Julie Delpy/Ethan Hawke movies, checked all permutations of the title words - Before, After, Sunrise, and Sunset - but came up utterly empty. Despite the fact that I couldn't remember its name, is that not a relatively popular movie? Also, everything was alphabetized all wacky. I don't think that numbers should be filed at the beginning of section just because they are numbers. It's confusing. For example: 1984 is filed at the beginning of the drama section, but Eight Men Out is under E in the same section.

This is beginning to look way too similar to a normal blog (not that there's anything wrong with that). Time to cut it off.

Lots of Japanese music this week. Hopefully, you'll dig it (mp3).
