france saves my life

i just watched amelie for the 52nd time... i don't really know that it's the 52nd time but it's a fair guess and i suppose i'm really the only one counting. now if we were all being honest with one other we could admit freely that i'm a sucker for a well shot, subtitled foreign film, with a quirky plot, obscure humor and references to philosophers, lots of red and green and well.... love. it's true. despite my mood of late and my general insistence that i am an island i am a sucker for a love story. the clip below seriously makes my heart stop.... but if you haven't seen the movie don't you dare watch it... instead just go rent it. seriously you can't live a moment longer in the world without something wonderful like this.




in case you didn't know i also love the following things which are also french:
he loves me, he loves me not. another fucking brilliant film.
baguettes
the louvre
the online podcast / videocast tour of versailles
photo tour of paris just click the next tab on the top right corner

just for tonight i am not in a yucky mood and since i don't sleep anymore i may watch amelie all over again.... i just might... who needs sleep?? maybe i can sleep at the chester house when i am there..... or just get drunk enough to pass out on their porch...
