You Are Going To Die

Just watched 'Jules et Jim'. I have to say although my opinion on French films is biased as I am unconditionally amazed by them, this film was absolutley incredible. The acting is superb, so much so that at one point I became so involved in the film I forgot that I was watching it, I felt like I was playing a role in thier lives.

So to all you idiots who cringe at the thought of films that aren't made for the flatheads of America, I suggest you open your tiny minds a fragment to european films. Yes you have to read subtitles, but don't worry, that doesn't mean you're watching a book. It's still a film, you won't be learning. If it bothers you that much you could always learn French. Or is learning another laguage to benefit your cultural knowlage blasphemy if you're a chav?

Moving onwards...

When I was nine, someone very close to me died. I found the last picture ever taken of her. I studied it for a few minutes. It's an incredibly spontaneous photograph, and I always end up wondering what she was thinking at that moment. I also looked for Hollywood death omens. You know, the typical cliched, maddeningly obvious ones:

Mr P: 'Wait! If you look very closely, (very closely being smack in the middle of the photograph)there appears to be a beam of light slicing his head off'
Jeff: 'Well Mr Photographer, that could easily be a fault in the developing'
Mr P: 'No Jeff, this picture....IS DIGITAL!'

*Dramatic music plz*

Anyway... The point is, there was absoloutley nothing. No death omens, no shadows in the shape of a knife, no big black doggie like in Harry Potter. There was a pack or cooking flour peaking out suspiciously behind her... But seeing as she didn't get attacked by a massive bag of flour, I think it's safe to overlook that detail. But then what did I expect? I was just curious. I've never really believed in the 'Deaths Plan' concept. I don't believe everyone has a time to die. I just think things happen, sometimes in great coincidence, and they can result in death.

And yes, you are going to die. But most likely in about 60 years time.
Have a nice rest of Sunday :)
