So just finished watching The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar very randomly in the middle of the night, while pausing the Voyager binge. I just loved how the whole story was narrated, blending sets and reality. The stupid trick of using a box painted with the colours of the floor to indicate levitation was brilliant and funny. I don't know how a movie can be so wholesome and wickedly funny at the same time.
The presentation was like the best way to read the book. Ayoade was a bit self-conscious though, but it was cool to see him as an Indian. I really liked how they used the same actors for multiple roles. This movie was so fresh, but still so Wes.
The jank is building up in my bedroom, need to fix it. Also need to fix all the lights in the house. Time for another clean-up operation. Thing is I cannot even call in professional cleaners because the sockets for them are burnt through. However, I did manage to clean up the house to a great extent one weekend, just need to do that again.
Next week is going to be eventful.
