Random thoughts Stray memories

Saturday, February 14, 2004

Today was spent watching 2 DVDs, both about relationships breaking down. One is Michael Haneke's "Code Unknown", and the other, Jean Luc Goddard's "Le Mepris" (meaning contempt). I've always had a very definite attitude towards Goddard films: I either love them or hate them (especially the too experimental ones), but never any inbetween. Well, this one's about a couple whose marriage disintegrates quickly beyond their comprehension and this one I love. In it, the wife told her husband she hates him because he's incapable of moving her. His dysfunctional reply was he can, cos she's on the verge of tears.

To quote the blurb for "Code Unknown":
"Love has a language all its own".

Not going to wish everyone a good Valentine's day, but I'll rather wish you all a good day, everyday.
