As I posted already on 5/8 I'm the "lucky owner"
of yet another masterpiece of cinematography, in this case titled "burn
after reading" that has a pretty good cast of famous actors but that truly
"makes no sense" whatsoever. I'm ashamed to admit that I watched it
more than once, it actually resides in my "funny movies" holder and
it won't leave it any time soon.
What cannot stop to amaze me is to imagine the reason why
good actors like George Clooney and Brad Pitt would ever want to be any part of
a movie with such a script.
This actually makes me truly wonder what a movie script can
contain to be able to sell to an actor the decision to participate in any movie
(unless it's all
of green pages with the $$ sign). This is actually a good sign that
my brain was indeed injured, simply because after having watched it few times,
I still cannot figure out if it contains any story/narrative/message of any
kind.
I read that this "screwball comedy" even won few
awards of the cinema industry and this shows - if at all necessary - that my
brain is truly injured, just like the mother of my treasures has kept telling
to me each and every time I say to her that I love you like the day we married
(24 years ago, 5/18/1991) I put here the trailer to this "screwball
movie" and few links to movie reviews, so that - once again - my reader
don't think that I make things up and that I'm like a black dot in a white
sheet.
