I saw this movie 22 times in the theater and this is the only place I can admit that.
Not even to my husband, who thinks I have gambling problem, because every showing I went to, I told him I was going to Bingo
Nice to know we are kindered souls here.. ;)

LOL, deedee, I luv ya. That must be the best use of a "going to Bingo" excuse.

In re: 'Monster's Ball'--do you realize that Heath's last line (delivered to Billy Bob Thornton) is:
"Well, I always loved you."
Devastating.

I love his role in that movie! I can see why some people might not wanna see it now, but I saw it years ago, and he was really good in it. I think it was the first thing I saw Heath Ledger in.

I always have an opinion about movies at work, a paragraph in lenght.
With BBM, I keep it to a one word sentence (very good film, really liked it), because I don't wanta get emotional and I can't be that detached about this film anywhere, much less in the workplace... And it's the film I have the most to say, but I bite my tongue.
Oh, my co-workers just ask my take on the ending and I give a one sentence statement, change the subject. Can't get misty-eyed :'( n the office.

Ooh, I was soo excited with Heath's performance in that film. I was waiting for him to come up with his big break role since 10 Things - when I first saw him and became convinced he had oodles of talent in him. Kept waiting, but no role that could measure up to his potential seemed to come. Then I saw him in MB and thought "OK, surely after this performance they'll offer him bigger and more complex roles", but it didn't really happen. When I saw the BBM trailer for the first time, for some reason, the image of him breathing in the shirts stayed with me and I became convinced this could be his big break as a serious dramatic actor - I had no idea how right I was (for once, LOL).

- Unable to enjoy watching another film for over two months - the first ones I watched, after BBM got me good, made me feel pathological: "Donnie Darko" - lost any will to live for about two days, hell, nobody warned me about it - luckily, I saw it on a Friday night, so by Monday I was functional enough to get out of bed and go to work instead of making a beeline to the computer; and "The Three Burials of Melchiades Estrada" - which made me feel like I cheated on the love of my life, because I really liked it (although not even close as much as BBM) - after I saw it I felt so guilty and hollow, and craved BBM so bad, I sobbed in the car all the way home.
- Unable to listen to any music but the BBM soundtrack for over a month.
- After the first three viewings, thoughts about Ennis, Jack and the film in general would wake me up in the middle of the night; I would lay there thinking of them and hurting.

I don't understand, Moni--which part of this is supposed to be irrational?
