renting movies is the best revenge...

still annoyed that bill murray did not win for best actor, i rented rushmore. i think i saw it before, but really i didn't remember much, except for the irish (or is it scottish) student that's hassling max...

anyhow, murray gives a great performance (again) - besides being flat out funny when it's called for, he does a great job being funny while remaining human and not taking it over the top. god forbid, could you imagine, say, jim carrey, in lost in translation - blech...

i liked olivia williams in the movie as well. pretty, but not in an obvious way. i can see why the kid, bill murray and her dead husband fell for her. jason schwartzman is good as max. never realized this was written by owen wilson...

in other news, listening to ryksopp (sp?), shania twain (?!) and the pretenders, this AM as i am scurrying about making midterms. can't listen to brass i pocket anymore without thinking of scarlett johansson, not that thinking about sj is a particularly unpleasant thing to do....
