Life is a Cabaret!

Today I am cleaning out our disaster of a closet (the shelf collapsed a week after I moved in and we haven't had time to fix it yet). While cleaning, I'm watching my all time favorite movie: Cabaret.



I would definitely recommend the movie before the stage play because, well, the stage play is MUCH MORE risque! Not for anyone under the age of 18, I'd say. She is so beautiful and unique and this movie is perfect for her. I guess this is just a Cabaret appreciation post. It's all about music, nazis, love, sex, alcohol and, of course, life in the cabaret.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

So I'm not sure why I expected society to be any less rude tonight but when these two teenage girls were still talking continuously more than half way through the movie, I was about to lose it. Right over my left shoulder, the WHOLE time. I'm usually very patient with people like this thinking, "maybe they are discussing the movie" or "I'm sure they'll stop talking in just a minute..." yeah, no. They didn't stop talking and I don't think the phrase "and I couldn't believe him and then she said..." would come in anywhere while commenting on Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

And on top of that, movie tickets are 10-13 dollars now so WHY IN THE WORLD would you pay 10 dollars to sit in a dark theatre and talk to your friend? You can do that for free, outside. If you found out that you weren't interested part way into the movie, no one will judge you if you leave. So finally my boyfriend stepped in and did what I was wanting to do and told them to shut up...and they did!

The movie was actually really good. I enjoyed it, besides the fact that I do NOT like scary movies. Things that jump out and scare me are a no go but once I got past a few of those moments I could actually pay attention to the story and enjoyed the rest of the movie. It's ridiculous.

So I guess the moral of the story is, don't pay 10 dollars to talk to your friends. Actually, the moral of the story is don't be a douche bag.
