I saw this movie on TV1 (the second BET, here in Philly) and as i expected i loved it. The movie is soo real and as i come to expect from Spike Lee its very, nery New York City.
I miss my home sooo much. I miss it terribly but thats no where close to the point of this blog.
If you havent seen this movie or havent seen a Spike Lee film then you are unfortunate. The man is a genius. His movies has a certain substance that resonates throughout. When you are watchin a Spike Lee joint, you know it! I'll admit i wasnt too fond of him as a person but that was me being prejudgemental and although he is who he is he is in fact a movie genius.
Everything from his camera angles, to the lighting in certain scenes to the signature dolly walk that some of his characters do when under extreme pressure and angst. Its these little things that i appreciate from his movies.
If i were to pick one it would probably be eitherrrr...clockers because its shot right in my borough Brooklyn, and the overall feel of the movie is so BK. I like Do the Right Thing because of the story, the story is amazing and the tension it brings gripped me when i first saw it. Mo betta blues (=>) is another one of my favorite because it just caught me by suprise.
Im excited because ive watched only like under two handfuls of his movies.
- 25th hour
- Do the right thing
- Mo betta blues
- Clockers
- Inside Man
- Miracle at St Anna
- Malcom X (beautiful, my first one)
- He got Game
- When the levees broke

other than that, i dont feel like writing...im not in the best of moods...
I keep second guessing myself. Wondering "what ifs" and "what then". I got mad pressure on me and its self inflicted. There are people who are alot worse off than I am and im not even thinkin of them (why should i anyway). I just want to not worry, i feel im gonna be miserable when i grow up even more. I hope not but this aint a great start, hopefully there is more to life than this. Its just that i have no clue where to look. Im lost as fuck and i need direction but no one can give it to me. I just want one finger, a finger to point anywhere and to tell me where does such a path lead. I'm doin my best to keep it to myself cuz i have slipped and i feel that its looking like im not built for the real world or that im not grown enough to stand on my own two. That is whats at stake here. I just need to keep cool and find a way out of this by myself, Only then will i be able to go through my trial and tribulation. Everyone has to go through something right? Ive been dodging roadblocks all my life and now i gotta stand up and try to break through one. If i have the best of intentions i cant fail right. Thats my biggesst fear right now..well next to castration and amputation.
Im scared to fail.
I care if i fail...
sometimes i wish i was still the same me who dont give a fuck if he died tommorow. I was so reckless lol... Maybe my luck would get me into some shit. I feel so human, so mortal. In a way i was so strong. What the fuck happened...
I mean...
God watch over me man...
later
defenitely time to privatize this thing
