Movies and future posts

The cinema is a magical place. Somewhere whereI can envelope myself in a story and think through a visual medium.

I've recently seen three productions, two of which involve a Méxican touch. The first was the movie Babel (Méxican director, set, actors): I imagine much has been written about this film in the 'blogosphere' (an interesting term in itself), so I'll just mention that it has interesting stories of people in situations where cultural differences are at the forefront of their interactions. The next movie I saw was Science of Sleep by Michel Gondry and starring Gael Garcia Bernal (Méxican-and is on at least five or six covers here in México at the moment). This film showed me the importance of the setting - anybody have a plane ticket to Paris for me and my girlfriend? Lastly, I saw The Departed. This film provided me with enough images of death to last until the new year. I think it added about 100 (maybe more) images of people being shot, tortured, beaten, to my lifetime total of probably over 100,000 seen on the t.v. or silver screen.

In a request to all: I've been doing this blog for a few months now and I have grown attached to it. If you are reading this and you are not me, please leave comment on this post or drop me a line at info {@} jeremyclouser.com and tell me what you think of it.

In the next week or so I will be posting images of a basketball game on a court overlooking makeshift concrete housing next to luxury highrises, images from an exhibtion/installation that I have up at the moment at a friend's architectual office and a report/musings/image(s) from a Morrissey concert that I recently went to. Stay Tuned!
