I ate a taco bowl so big and so fast that it sent me on an immediate post meal walk, the kind that made me glad to be alive and love the little miracles of life.
The weather was cloudy and breezy and it was soooo beautiful and I could feel the walk help with the massive meal I had.
Saw some foliage in the water by the ferry dock.
Blade is so cool and sexy.
Sad :( Riz Ahmed does a fabulous job again, being so convincingly pathetic and vulnerable and resentful for his newly acquired disability.
What I kept thinking about whenever I noticed the really effective sound design of this movie was this piece called I am sitting in my room by Alvin Lucifer. I came across it on Tumblr a few weeks ago and somehow managed to listen to all of it (not all at once, though I really think that would be the most cool) and the gradual convergence of the resonant frequencies of the room and the vocals into one ambient beam of acoustics kind of scared the shit out of me.
...Heard the Doppler effect of someone on the sidewalk outside my house sneezing as they walked.
I’m a bit delirious with my own ailment, but it really touched me. #WeAreOne
With no English subtitles available, this felt nearly incomprehensible to me. It was recommended by a coworker after he saw that I was planning to watch The Sound of Metal.
Ultimately, hilarious. Riz Ahmed and Kayvan Novak have this incredible comedic energy together and the dialogue and timing had me yelp-laughing. Maybe because it’s British or something but it does not hold back on what I feel like would now be considered taboo or in bad taste.
