Movies....

The Illusionists

.....a B film that you will still say is a b film especiallly if you saw it twice...In the heart of Vienna at the turn of the Century..we find Ed Norton as an illlusionsts wowing the city with feats of magic...all the while his lost love just happens to be in line to marry the heir to the throne....it's a crazy world....

Paul Giamanti plays an awakward chief inspector, big suprise and the chick fgrom 7th heaven jessica Biel plays the love interest....

The evil guy the prince is very angry through out..is it because he is in character or does he know that this is at times a comedy...

check out the walk in the castle scenes that happen the walls are quite interesting....

Finally in the end we see Jessica Biel wearing Genie pants in the arms of Norton...
Thus proving my theroy that the 80's are even coming back to the early 1900's....
long live 1985....

On reading Lullyaby.....By Chuck Panaschuck....

The beginings of the novel take you into the world of haunted house reality where we meet Helen a realtor with a gift of selling and reselling the same housers thirty to forty times...All because they have interesting quirks...some bleed through walls..others have dogs that bark all others of the day at you but have no head....it's a luctrive business.....

We have Carl...aReporter who prides himself on knowing alll the little details....and works hard to keep himself one step from doing b everyone around him in with his anger....

One day through doing a piece on crib deaths he discovers a strange fact that a book has been at the scene of all the deaths he has covered...and all had a paticular page open..in this he finds a song that will kill anyone who it is spoken at....

Thus the journey begins to save the world from a word killing machine....

it's a book driven on word noise..speed of thought..angry rants from all sides and generational thought lines drawn in the sands and fighting each other for suspremency.....
