This time of year is a struggle

*sigh* as it's when my father died, and my mood boomerangs from chipper to tearful in three seconds flat. Rather impressive, really, but a bit like being the ball in a tennis match.

Distracting myself with movies

_Some Like It Hot_ - one of the best final lines of any films, ever.
_Who Killed Roger Rabbit_ - the effects stand up to the test of time extremely well, as does everything else. Weird that for a movie that should be so laugh-out-loud, I only really laughed out loud on subsequent viewings a few times.
Still haven't watched my third Netflix flick of the batch, _Wild Strawberries_.
Re-watched an SF film that should've gotten more recognition when it came out, _The Hidden_, with Kyle MacLachlan and Michael Nouri.
Clapped and cried and so forth during _Shakespeare in Love_. *sigh*
_Training Day_ - god damn, what a film.
