Dont Complain......

I just read this review of a concert for 30 Seconds to Mars. The woman was a mother of a fifth grader. She actually went to the concert for her son and didnt review the band and had no clue who her son was listening too. 30 Seconds to Mars is my favorite band as many know and Jared is my favorite person as many know, but I would never take a small child to the concert. Their concerts are rough and potentially dangerous if your not careful. Also Jared curses and at some of the recent concerts play the Hurricane video. The mother went to one of these concerts and complained. My question is who doesnt check the stuff their kid is listening to and how is it his fault that you who are not a fan of the band and are taking your kid. These concerts are designed for fans not for non-fans. I feel concerts should only be judged if your a fan of the music and band, if not your already bias. This bothers me because yet again people are judging Jared for something they have no right. People sometimes need to keep opinions to themselves if they cant understand.

Dark Path(A Poem)

Dark Path
By: Natalie Alvey

Was I on the ground when you found me?
I cannot remember now or pretend to know.
It was dark an cold.
Was it night or day in disguise.

I took your hand that I know.
I did not you or your soul.
You held me close and whispered don't let go.
Did I even have a choice?

Your eyes were vast and mysterious.
Your skin scarred and smooth.
Your scent took me and threw me.
Did you know what you would do to me.

The path was dark and far from light.
But was it good or evil.
I felt smiles and their were no tears.
The breeze cleaned my skin.

Your kiss on my neck.
My hands in your hair.
The blinding dark.
The silent words said.

You never left but always changed.
Waited for goodbyes but they never came.
Your burned into my flesh.
Voice ringing in my ears.

Your hand still holds mine even now.

My Favorite Person Ever

Jared Leto

When taking about this certain man I get many controversial comments on what they think about them if they even know who he is. If you ask people that know me they might ask you to not discuss him because their tired of listening about him because they already know everything there is to know about him from me always talking about him. I began thinking the other day how much one person can effect you. I was about thirteen or forteen when I was first made aware of who Jared Leto was. I was up late watching television when they advertised that a show was coming to the network in reruns. The show was My So-Called Life. I had mildly heard of it before but never had the opportunity to see it and I decided to see how good it was. My first reaction to the show is that I related to the main character of Angela Chase.Then something also happened the character Jordan Cadalano was introduced my first thoughts were yes he is beautiful, but that wasnt something that would make me addicted and facsinated and I dont like how people start following people just because they might be attractive, but I did become captivated with the mystery that Angela Chase did and I know how stupid that sounds. Growing up I never really felt like I belonged or had someone I fully and truely admired and inspired me. I now feel different meeting my two best friends I have now, but that is slightly different. I feel many kids growing up want to feel heard and think that people understand. In grade school I was weird to the friends I had at the time and I kept probably my true self hidden from them thinking that maybe I was wrong. I was twelve when I finally had a friend that understood me. But when I saw My So Called Life it made me found him. I fully recognized that this is in no way his best work but it did o something important it made me Google him. Jordan's character was a forgotten child to the system and it made you want to rescue him.

Many people when I say that the most influential person in my life is Jared Leto they roll their eyes and say "Oh God" they think that it is just because of how he is attractive, but I swear I would think this man was amazing no matter what he looked. Many people dont know how much he means to my soul. His creativity seems unmatched to me and I love the ways he explores humanity through movies and music. I will first talk about his acting because that is what first made me aware of him. One of my favorite movies ever is Aexander and that always surprises people. Its length makes many people annoyed but the movie captivated me. His performane was touching and subtle playing the only man that was able to stand up to aruler of ninety pecent of the known world. The part made many upset though the character was real and it can be proven. He has never been afraid to play a character even though people might not like it. There was an interview once I watched that he liked exploring the darker side of humanity because it is less explored than the happier side. His movie include Fight Club, Requeim For A Dream, Chapter 27, Panic Room, Prefontaine, Lord of War and more.

As you can see from the pictures shown above Jared has changed his appearance many times for a role whether it be small or big. Jared consumes himself in his art so you always get the best work possible and  fimly believe he is the most underrated actor in hollywood though he probably likes it that way. He never wants people to fuss over him and he wants people to get the most out of his work. For the few who are not familiar with his work he gained a ton of weight to play John Lennon's killer and lost a ton of weight while being abstinent for Requiem for a Dream. He only picks work that he feels will be a challenge and take him to a new place.

Then there is his music. Jared has his very own band called Thirty Seconds to Mars and where many actors who also want to be musicians fail and sound awful making you embarassed. Jared can actually sing beautifully and has a powerful sound. He writes all of his own music wit some help from his brother Shannon and fellow band mate Tomo. The lyrics mainly are written by Jared and they always hold heavy meaning to him. He treats the fans with the most respect one can give and he doesnt even call the fans fans the band calls them their family. He creates a since of community and wants no one left out. He likes to explore what it means to be who you are. Also the fight people have with society and coming out on top.





Jared is also a great Director, making most of the music videos they have put out only having a few exceptions with their early work. Jared's videos cant even be called music videos they are short film with beautiful cinematography and heavy symbolism. Never will their videos seem simple and small. The Kill shows one discovering themselves with a tribute to the the movie "The Shining". Then you have Hurricane that explore people's deepest secrets and desires. Close to the edge showed what a concert for the band is like making it look epic. I have been to two concert and both times I have had a time that I could never forget. I find him to be 100 percent original and never has anyone spoke to me like him. He is himself even when people attack him and be hateful. I never seen anyone so creative and original, there is no one else like him and there probably never will be. He marches to his own beat and inspired me to find my wn. He also inspired me to follow my heart though people said I shouldnt. To him I am eternally grateful.

Whether it be Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher or Erica Durance and Tom Welling Lois Lane and Clark Kent are meant for each other.

Yes Clark Kent save Lois Lane but Lois Lane has been known to save him from villians and even himself. ois is able to have a carreer and a relationship with a man who supports her. Lois also supports Clark in all of his endeavors. Lois came to Smallville looking for Chloe and never left once she showed. She dated two other Superherooes while Clark had to get over Lana. In the end though they couldnt resist each other.

Clark Kent. Do you even care if I get this job?
Clark: Of course I care, I bought a new tie.
Lois: Oh, well I bought a whole new outfit.
Clark: Yeah, you look great.
Lois: Don't do that.

Best Television Couples Countdown #2

Buffy and Angel



Buffy met Angel in the first episode of the first season and from that moment there was a chemisty that was undeniable. She didnt know till later in the season that he was a vampire and with her being the vampire slayer, Romeo and Juliet took on a whole new meaning. By season 2 they were hooked on each other like a drug, but with Angel's curse allowing him never to have a moment of true happiness, when they made love for the first time it caused the first issue in their relationship. Angel lost his soul and he was back to being Angelus one of the most feared and evil vampires in history. They were able to reverse it by the end of season 2 but not before Buffy had to kill for the good of the world. ecame back in season 3 and with the two not able to give the other up they came back together. Angel realizing Buffy would never have a life he thought she wanted and deserved he broke up with her and told he was leaving. This was so Angel could get his own show that took place in Los Angeles. Buffy showed up a few times in LA making it hard as always for the two to leave each other. Angel also came back to Sunnydale, even to attend Buffy's mom's funeral. I loved this episode because it showed to me the two were always soulmates even if time didnt allow them to be together. Angel showed up in the final season in one of the final episode to me proving again how much their meant to be together. I always find them to be one of the most poetically tragic beautiful couples. 


I know there is more than one but I do love them!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angel: What are you sayin', you wanna have a date?
Buffy: No.
Angel: You don't wanna have a date?
Buffy: Who said 'date'? I-I-I never said 'date'.
Angel: Right. You just wanna have coffee or somethin'.
Buffy: Coffee?
Angel: I knew this was gonna happen.
Buffy: What? What do you think is happening?
Angel: You're sixteen years old. I'm two hundred and forty-one.
Buffy: I've done the math.
Angel: You don't know what you're doing, you don't know what you want...
Buffy: Oh. No, I, I think I do. I want out of this conversation.
Angel: Listen, if we date you and I both know one thing's gonna lead to another.
Buffy: One thing already has led to another. You think it's a little late to be reading me a warning label?
Angel: I'm just tryin' to protect you. This could get outta control.
Buffy: Isn't that the way it's supposed to be?
Angel: This isn't some fairy tale. When I kiss you, you don't wake up from a deep sleep and live happily ever after.
Buffy: No. When you kiss me I wanna die.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angel: You still my girl?
Buffy: Always.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BUFFY - (looks at Angel) Because—OK, I'm cookie dough. I'm not done
baking. I'm not finished becoming whoever the hell it is I'm gonna
turn out to be. I make it through this, and the next thing, and the
next thing, and maybe one day I turn around and realize I'm ready. I'm
cookies. And then, you know, if I want someone to eat— (eyes go wide
as she catches herself) or enjoy warm, delicious cookie me,
then...that's fine. That'll be then. When I'm done.
ANGEL - Any thoughts on who might enjoy— (sighs, irritated) Do I have
to go with the cookie analogy?
BUFFY - I'm not really thinking that far ahead. That's kind of the point.
ANGEL - (hands the amulet to Buffy) I'll go start working on the
second front. Make sure I don't have to use it. (walks away)
BUFFY - (calls after him) Angel. (he turns to look at her) I do...
sometimes think that far ahead.
ANGEL - Sometimes is something. (smiles, walks away)
BUFFY - Be a long time coming. Years, if ever.
ANGEL - (shrugs) I ain't getting any older. (walks away)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Buffy(talking about Angel): I would have given up everything I had to be with him. I loved him more than I will ever love anything in this life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ANGEL: Look, it's okay. I know you don't feel like it now, but you are
strong, Buffy. You're gonna figure this out. And you have people to
help you. You don't have to do this alone.
BUFFY: (looks at the sky) It's gonna be light soon.
ANGEL: I can stay in town as long as you want me.
BUFFY: How's forever? Does forever work for you?

Best Television Couples Countdown #3

Brian Kinney & Justin Taylor
As it gets to my top three it became such a close tie almost and it pained me to have o put one over another. These didnt make it easy. Here is another couple that originated in the first episode though I believe the show originally wanted the character of Mike and Brian together. The chemistry between Brian and Justin was undeniable. I have to admit Just bothered me, but he grew alot in the five seasons and a whole lot in the first season. Brian tells Justin he is going to make Justin the best homosexual he can be and I think holds true, because though I am a straigt girl I loved Justin. I loved Brian from the beginning he is my favorite character on the show and the most complex. I believed he always loved Justin but he isnt the guy to say it and some times Jstin would forget it but Brian wold show his love in the best ways. He savd Justin's life, put him through school, and gave him a place to live when he had no where to go. Justin stuck with Brian through some very unsavory moments and cancer. They were beautiful together. The show ended with them parting but I feel there was a unsaid promise that Justin would return once he had some life experiences.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brian: "Sunshine, how did I ever get along without you?"
Justin: “You didn’t."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Justin: "I gave it some thought and decided you should take me back."
Brian: "Oh?"
Justin: "Even though I've made a few mistakes, I think you'd be making an even bigger one not giving me a second chance."
Brian: "I see."
Justin: "Cause now I understand what it is you want of me. And I know what I can expect from you."
Brian: "You also understand you'll be required to work long, hard hours -- sometimes deep into the night?"
Justin: "It would be a pleasure to work under you...Sir."
Brian: "And you're never to play violin music in my presence again."
Justin: "I promise."
Brian: "Good. Well then, you can start immediately."

Best Television Couples Countdown #4

Brenda Walsh and Dylan McKay


The show lasted ten years though Brenda was there for four and Dylan was there for five but came back towards the end. In the first season these two got together very quickly and very passionately. On their first date it sort of ended with Dylan running after Brenda in the street and that moment was the least of their problems. They went through a pregnancy scare, a cancer scare, cheating, living together, Dylan's father dying, long distance, and much more but when t came down to any of their problems they ran to each other first. Even when Dylan was dating Kelly the main problem in their relationship was that Dylan relied on Brenda more than her. Brenda left the show by going to England and a year later Dylan saying he was going to live with her. Technically they never did end up together but I felt the show always made it clear they were the ones meant to be.

Brenda Walsh: The only time I ever felt that proud was when I was on stage. And it wasn't just my parents, you know, it was like a whole audience applauding me. I want it, Dylan. That's why I'm going to London.
 Dylan McKay: I understand.
Brenda Walsh: I knew you would. You always understand me. You belive in me, don't you?
Dylan McKay: Yeah. I do.
 Brenda Walsh: Dylan, I love you. I've never stopped loving you. And I know now I never will. Dylan McKay: I'll applaud you from afar.
Brenda Walsh: I want more then your applause. I won't be gone forever, Dylan. Give me something to come back to.
[they kiss]

Best Television Couples Countdown #5

Angela & Jordan


From the first episode Angela loved Jordan. She was your typical highschool student and he was a not so typical teenager since he was held back and skipped constantly. He was a musician and later found ot that he was pretty much forgotten by everybody till Angela couldnt let it go. Their relationship was rocky from the beginning since they were different and from different lifestyles. The show only had one season and they split up during but by the last episode they were together.



Jordan: It's like you think you are safe or something cause you can just walk away anytime, cause you don't need her - you don't need anyone. But the thing you didn't realize is, you're wrong.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angela: Sometimes someone says something really small and it just fits into this empty place in your heart.

Best Television Couples Countdown #6

Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big


For Seven years fans of Sex and the City sat and watched the roler coaster that was Carrie and Mr. Big. They met in the first episode and they would not be able to shake each other and in the final episode he flew all the way to aris to bring her back to New York City where the both of them belonged. They even had a movie for their wedding and of course I little more drama before they said their I Do. Alot of people liked Carrie with Aiden but I personally feel he never understood what made Carrie Carrie and in the end the force of Carrie and Big couldnt break. Even when he popped up in the second movie she still came home to Big and I feel always will.



Mr. Big: Would you want to get married?
Carrie Bradshaw: Well, I didn't, didn't think that was an option.
Mr. Big: What if it was an option?
Carrie Bradshaw: Why? What? Do you want to get married?
Mr. Big: I wouldn't mind being married to you. Would you mind being married to me?
Carrie Bradshaw: No, no, not, not if that's what you wanted. I mean, is, is that what you want?
Mr. Big: I want you. So, ok.
Carrie Bradshaw: So really, we're, we're getting married?
Mr. Big: We're getting married. Should we get you a diamond?
Carrie Bradshaw: No. No. Just get me a really big closet.

and(I love when he told her this)...
Mr. Big: Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours.

#7 Meredith Grey & Derek Shepherd


Meredith and Derek chemistry was undeniable from the first episode. She was dark and twisty and he was starting over and I always saw them as being the other missing puzzle piece. They got married last season though not legally only in a post it note but hopefully it will become official. They made the elevator romantic. Meredith didnt want saving from anything and didnt need it but Derek did anyway and I always loved that. They always knew the way to hurt each other but couldnt stay away for very long till they realized the only place they wanted to be was with each other.

Derek: Meredith...
Meredith: Where have you been?! I've been waiting and waiting for you! And I did this stupid, embarrassing, humiliating, corny thing and I was just gonna tell you that this over here is our kitchen and-- and this is our living room... And over there - that's the room where our kids could play. I had this whole thing about 'I was gonna build us a house' but I don't build houses because I'm a surgeon! And now I'm here feeling like a lame-a** loser... I got all whole and healed - And you don't show up! And now it's all ruined cos you took so long to come home! And I couldn't even find that bottle of champagne!
(Derek holds up the bottle of champagne)
Derek: (Walking towards her) This is the kitchen? Living room? Little small... But the view is much better from here. And that's the room where the kids will play? Hm... Where's our bedroom?
Meredith: I'm still mad at you. And I don't know if I trust you. I wanna trust you but I don't know if I do so I'm just gonna try, I'm gonna try and trust you. Because I believe that we can be extraordinary together rather than ordinary apart, and I wanna be-- (Derek cuts her off by kissing her.)
(After the long awaited reunion kiss)

#8  Rory Gilmore and Dean Forrester



This is one of my couple that will get alot of debate because the fandom for Gilmore Gils is divided when picking who they like Rory with. Well since day1 I have always loved thes two. Dean loved Roroy with all his heart and brought out the best in her. He never let her down or treated her poorly. If anything thing he might have love her too much. These two didnt end up together by the end of the show but Rory never ended up with anyone so Istill would like to think there is a chance. Teir chemistry was amazing and they were adorable. He was dependable and never required her to change or need her to take care of him and she loved him for who he was and wanted the best for him. Just Beautiful!

Rory: We're having one of those moments, right now.
Dean: What moment's?
Rory: One of those moment's when everything is so perfect and so wonderful that... you almost feel sad because nothing could ever be this good again.
Dean: So, basically, I'm depressing you?
 Rory: Yep.
 Dean: [chuckles] You're very weird.
Rory: And you're wonderful.

Best Television Couples Countdown #9

#9 Michael and Maria
Michael and Maria from the show Roswell. They started out hating each other but quickly evolved into a fondness that couldnt compare. Michael had a rough outer shell and Maria could be hard to handle but together they worked and they completed what the other was looking for. I also liked how much passion they had for each other and how they fought showing that no relationship is perfect. The show was about aliens stranded on earth so at one point Michael and the other three aliens were headed home Michael chose to stay behind with Maria not even the main couple on the show did that. These two did end up together in the end which was very deserving.


Maria: I thought you were leaving
Michael: I am... but I just wanted... I dunno.
Maria: To say goodbye?
Michael: I wanted to say that this thing has been screwed up from the beginning. You and me. Us. Just the whole long, stupid story...
Maria: Thanks...
Michael: But I wouldn't trade it for anything. It's meant so much to me, y'know. From day one, from the moment I kidnapped you and stole your car... I knew you were the girl for me. I never wanted anyone else... Maria: Michael...
Michael: I still don't. Just... Wherever I'm going, whatever I'm doin', just know I'll always love you.

Best Television Couples Countdown #10

Being Valentine's Day and my BFF is doing a list like this I feel I want to do one too! I will update each day and countdown till we get to my number one.

#10 - Ally McBeal and Larry Paul

Ally McBeal spent three of the five season pining for Billy just to have him die. In the forth seaon though something interesting happened an they added a new character named Larry Paul. He loved that Ally was neurotic and never made her feel like se was crazy. He also kept her on her toes. He left after the forth season do to Robert Downey Jr.'s personal problems, but he bever died in Ally's heart for the fifth and final season. Through the entire season he would be brought up and broke up the relationships Ally had in the last. When they were apart it was heart breaking and you could feel their love when they were together. They een had a sog that would often play during their love scenes that described their relationship "For Once In My Life".

   Larry: You think i’m just going to sit back and wait for you to get with the program? you might be afraid of all this, Ally, but… i’m not.

Ally: Self absorbed.
Larry: What else?
Ally: Vain.
Larry: What else?
Ally: Beautiful. That’s a good thing.
Larry: What else?
Ally: Maybe incapable of letting myself be loved.
Larry: Well, we’d have to work on that.
Ally: Do you have any idea what you’re getting yourself into? I’m afraid to trust it.
Larry: Then we need to work on that too.

What I thought was the Best of 2010

I feel 2010 was a very good year for movies and here are the one I liked the most.

10.) Daybreakers

The movie starred Ethan Hawke and it is probably my favorite in regards to his movies. The movie was very original and realistice if you think about a world where vampires existed. What happens when the main population is vampires and there isnt enough blood to go around. The writing is good and the acting good. My favorite part of this movie is the cinematography. The look of the film is dark and sinister and just beautiful. I could tell the world was well visualized.

9.)  Easy A



The movie stars Emma Stone. The film is about a girl who gains a reputation for being a slut when it was just for show. I found this movie to be the funniest of the year. The humor is dry and scarcastic and very refreshing. Recently when most comedies that come out are focusing on a stupidity to the humor. This movie was well acted and I feel very smart in a teen movie coding. The writing was thought out and not dumbed down though its for a younger audience.

8.) Toy Story 3


Toy Story 3 is the only animation movie on my list. The animation is good and you wouldnt expect any less from pixar and I also want to say that I am more of a fan of disney animation back in the day like all the old princess movies. That being said I have grown up with Toy Story. Andy is actually around my age and I had alot of  dolls and I often dreamed that my toys did this.  All this  leads to a point. The story and the writing is what made this movie as amazing as it is. There is more to this story than just alot of toys going on an adventure. It is about having to grow up and let things go. The characters are rich and it is just flawless. I am 21 years old and I still cry at the end. I recommend this because I feel every age can appreciate this movie.

7.) The Town

The Town is a compelling story. I believe this movie completely restores all the faith people lost in Ben Affleck. He does an amazing job directing this movie. The entire movie kept enthralled and wanting you to know what would happen next. If a movie has me talking to it like I am involved in a story I know that is a sign that it is good. Jeremy Renner is gripping in his part as Ben Affleck's best friend. His character is complex and I found it to be heartbreaking that this man thinks this way, but he makes it impossible to like him though you understand why he is this way. I know I mention story and writing alot, but I consider those two one of the must have for a good movie the third being good acting and characters. The writing is so good and the story takes you to see a whole new side to heist movies. So much more than the usual things you see in these movies.
6.) The Runaways


The Runaway was a movie that came oout earlier this year and I feel alot people may not realize was this year. The movie stars Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett and Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie. The story revolves around their famous friendship and how their roles effected the band "The Runaways". many people find to have issues with Kristen Stewart, but Kristen gives a performance that draws attention and the role is definitely out of her comfort zone. I love Joan Jett so I would be very critical and Kristen passed and even Joan Jett approved her performance. Dakota give a performance that completely shook what people conciever her to be, or how I saw her. The performances were very good. The movie for the most part sticks to actual events. The soundtrack is kick-ass and the visual aspect was gritty and kept very loyal to the rock scene.
5.)  Never Let Me Go


Never Let Me Go is probably the most tragic story on my list and the one that made my heart hurt the most. This movie is based off the book by the same title and the screenplay keeps very loyal to the book with a few alterations and changes. I have read the book after the movie and I feel that in most cases people should see the movie first if possible because many people see the book as better and then have high expectations. See if you like the movie first than make the judgments. The performances were beautiful by everybody in the film. My favorite was Andrew Garfield who played Tommy. I found his part to be the hardest to play. I love how he played the character with innocence that I felt mainly came through his eyes. Carrie Mulligan just proves once again she is a force with her acting ability. The cinematography seemed effortless and dreary which fit these character's story.
4.) Remember Me
This movie is probably the most controversial movie on my list and I will stand by any protesting people give. The movie stars Robert Pattinson and I think people have preconcieved notions about this movie since he is in it and I would also like to say that just because the man is in the "Twilight Saga" this does not mean he is a bad actor and that he cannot do other things. I feel also people have issues with this movie because of how it involves the two towers. None of that should matter and should not count against this movie so I feel this movie was given an unfair go. Robert Pattinson's performance was very good and believable. I know how it is to be someone lost in their life and I relate to his character. I never thought that it was a lie. The story is original and something that the audience hasnt seen a million times and has a beautiful point. The movie is about finding your importance however it might be and how you will be remembered. This movie made my heart stand still and my breathing stop. The movie is directed beautifully and looks fantastic.
3.) Black Swan

Black Swan is what I believe to be Natalie Portman's finest performace and it is also powerful. The story is very original and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Through out the movie you wonder what is going on but the director doesnt let you get lost. I was surprised by Mila Kunis playing a part the stretches her acting muscles and she succeeded in doing so. The director's vision fit the film with its realism even though the story goes a little off the rails. The movie also keeps realistic about the ballerina world and how demanding it is.
2.) Inception

Inception I found to be the most original movie of the year. The cast work together as a team and gave great individual performances. My favorite parts were with Joseph Gordon Levitt and Ellen Paige. The effects were beautiful and so amazing. The anitgravity fight was just breathtaking to watch. the story is something we have never seen before and is interesting. The plot also doesnt spoon feed you and treat the audience like infants.
1.) Social Network

Yes this movie is my number one choice for movie of the year. This movie has everything a movie should have and it did it excellent.The movie cast is just brilliant. Jesse Eisenberg in this movie has you hating them getting his side back and forth all through out this movie and the character is so different from what he usually plays. Andrew Garfield keeps you on his side and seeing his side even when you want take other peoples sides. Justin Timberlake gives a performance out of character and does it great since many people love him and he had to make people not like him and his ruthless behavior. The writing is flawless and beautiful. It was well thought out and researched. The directing was also well thought out and every little detail was planned and has a purpose. To me this movie was the most captivating of the year.
