I never figured out how to pronounce "Closer". Is it the noun or the adjective?

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I agree with Jess on the dream aspect of SCIENCE OF SLEEP. Unfortunately, I spent the bulk of the movie wanting to smack the lead character around until he stopped being such a whiny little brat, which mitigitated the very real pleasure I was getting from the effects (that is, the dream-like qualities, not the special effects per se) Gondry was pulling off.
I think it is the adjective-- because they get closer and closer to each other. I also think that I can't deal with abhorrent characters. I also disliked Taxi Driver (not that they are at all the same kind of film).
Some of the effects stuff was beautiful.

But yes OH MY GOD STOP CRYING.

Pretty sure that was the intended effect. He's not supposed to be a guy you admire.

I didn't need him to be admirable. I needed him to be someone I didn't want to strangle.
I keep reading, "Science of Sheep" and I'm all, there's science? Huh, I guess so....
Of course there is. You've heard of ewe-genics, haven't you?
you know, that's really baaaad.
That's the sort of woolly-headed liberal thinking that leads to being eaten.
