Restless

.
I'm feeling particularly restless and uncreative and unthoughtful, and all sorts of other words that make sense but probably don't exist -- this should explain why not so much in the way of posts lately. It's aggrevating, to be honest, because I don't feel distant from the blog, like I don't care, but simply empty of things to say.
.
Ah well, who cares. My loss is your gain, though, because ordinarily when I wrote a post, a post that includes pictures, I dictate what kind of pictures you're going to look at. But tonight, since I have nothing else to offer, I'm going to let you pick which picture, out of a choice of two, you'd rather gaze upon. So: would you like to look at this picture of Amy Adams from Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day:
.

...or this picture of Ernest Borgnine from The Devil's Rain:

The choice is yours entirely. I make no judgments, and don't even care to know your selection. It's your life, and you must find happiness where available. But -- and I probably should have said this before -- you can only look at one of them. Make your choice, and then look at that picture, and only that picture. This isn't a charity.

I see the truth in both.

In a way, they speak to the ups and downs of life very clearly.

Which one is the Ernest Borgnine picture?

bill r. said...

I can't even remember. I posted this so long ago.

Stop confusing me and put up a picture of Naomi Watts.

So you're saying I'm getting predictable. I should just quite blogging altogether, I guess...

Quite a fetching picture of Amy Adams there, Bill.

And the other one reminds me I still have a hole in my Shatner filmography I must view. I've seen THE DEVIL'S RAIN in parts over the years. But two things have always frightened me away, my fear of melting people and the horrifying look of people with hollow black orbs where eyes used to be.

The chilling truth about THE DEVIL'S RAIN is that it's not very good. But you look at that cast, and you factor in the melting people and Borgnine's ram horns, and you go ahead and see it anyway. So you'll see it, Tony...you'll see it.

That picture of Amy Adams is the sort of thing that has helped keep Ernest Borgnine alive all these years, I'm sure.
