So today I went to Swansea with Sam Mitchell and we went to the cinema and saw Youth In Revolt, which stared Michael Cera as his usual self. I wore my sexy new Nike shoes. Then, on our way to the bus (which we didn't catch because it was full) we saw Lord and Lady Hammett having a stroll in WHSmiths. We collaborated and became the coolest kids in town. That's not what I'm going to rabbit on about though... I have an even bigger fish to fry!
We were sat three rows back from the screen, we had our bags on the floor, I had a bottle of water in my right hand and my right arm was bent at the elbow; I was comfortable. The trailers were loud and a majority of them were fast-paced; I had seen many of them before. Then everything changed.
A silent green screen appeared before me. My favourite colour completely caught my attention and a little buzz hummed in my stomach. (Like when Sims clap at their favourite things, this is my personal reaction, a humming buzz in my tum.) Jim Carrey appeared on the screen, I wasn't as excited as before, but not disappointed either. He's an amazing actor and a hilarious guy, but he doesn't tend to be in the films that you pay around £7 to see in the cinema. The film seemed funny, had a twist. Then, for the first time in my life, I was so sexually frustrated that I had to hold it in and squirm about in my seat. THE Ewan McGregor appeared on the screen. He is just amazing and in this film, he's gay with Jim Carrey. He seems to be overly-sensitive and sweet, a Virgo (just typed that in as 'virgin' and it made me laugh). I need to see this film or I'll die!

I Love You Phillip Morris - Coming Out On Wednesday March Seventeenth.
As my older readers will have read (http://turnipface.blogspot.com/2009/06/homosexual-lust.html), I totally have a thing for gay things and people. This film, entitled I Love You Phillip Morris, is a true story about Steven Jay Russell who, to be fair, is a genius. His IQ is 163, and he is an American con artist and an impostor who has had multiple prison escapes. He met Phillip Morris in prison, and they fell in love. He even had Morris transported to his prison at one point! A book's been published about his life, and he is now serving a 144 year long prison sentence. He's 51 now.
Here's a condensed list of his most epic escapes:
♥ In 1996, while in Harris County Jail (Texas), Russell impersonated a judge and ordered his own bond decreased from $900,000 to $45,000, which he immediately posted. He was arrested 10 days later in Florida and was sent back to Texas.
♥ That same year he started taking art classes provided by the prison. Each time he attended a session, he snatched a green Magic Marker and hid it under his bed. Eventually, he had enough markers to dye his white prison uniform green. Since all the medical professionals in the prison wore green uniforms, Russell simply walked out of the prison disguised as a "doctor."
♥ At the prison library, Russell began reading up on the HIV virus and AIDS. He began taking laxatives to make it seem as if he had the symptoms of AIDS. Russell used a prison typewriter to forge a medical document stating that he suffered from the disease, and used it to convince doctors of his "condition" on February 24. He fooled the prison doctor into believing that a 'special needs parole' to a Houston hospital had been authorized on March 13. While outside and free again, Russell posed as a doctor and informed the prison that Russell had died from AIDS.
♥ When police were alerted of his latest doings, Russell feigned a heart attack and was transported to a hospital. The FBI placed him under guard, but Russell managed to impersonate an FBI agent on his cellular phone and convinced officers guarding him to leave. He walked out of the hospital and the hunt for Russel began all over again.

Oh, and don't worry people - not all of my future posts are going to be videos. I told Sam to be more open on his blog (http://thezealouszebra.blogspot.com/) and to post what he wrote about being depressed. I was going to write a post about my views on depression and self-harm today, but seeing this trailer just made me want to spread the word. That won't be a long blog post by the way, and it won't be a pondering kind of thing either. I know where my views stand and I've developed them over the last four years of my life. So nothing short of a near-death experience will change that! xD
So it's a good film then? :P
ReplyDelete:D *waves madly* THAT'S ME!!! :D :D :D
And aye, we WERE pretty damn snazzy. 8-) Your epic shoes helped, mind. :D
:L That actually looks like a good film.

I love con men/women. It's just so amazing how they fool people and how clever their cons are. I would recommend you watch 'Catch Me If You Can'. It's an awesome film about a Frank Abagnale (played by Dicaprio) who became a conman when he was just 16.
ReplyDeleteThat film looks awesome! Reminds me a bit of 'The Men Who Stare at Goats' (which has Iwan McGregor in it to, naked :P).
Thanks for the promotion btw, I'll be sure to get loads of followers now XD!

@Rhodri - Correction: IT LOOKS LIKE AN AMAZING FILM! Plus, I can't seem to sit through a film without knowing the ending because I get too scared that the nice guys get hurt/defeated. I had Sam tell me if the Good Guys or the Bad Guys won in Taking Of Pelham 123 and I had Abi tell me if Mr Wheely got to stay on Pandora in Avatar and if anything bad enough to make me cry happened to Jude Law in Sherlock Holmes! xD
ReplyDelete@Sam - I seriously wanted to see the film 'The Men Who Stare At Goats' but I never got around to it, and after reading about Ewan McGregor on Wikipeida, I can confirm that he is one of few major male film starts who actually does his own nude scenes. JIZZ! Velvet Goldmine being a perfect example. I now want to see 'Scenes of a Sexual Nature', 'The Pillow Book' and 'The Men Who Stare At Goats'. I think what puts this conman apart from the others is that he was gay and had his gay lover transferred to his prison so they could be together! xD
Sam's right. "CMIYC" is really good. :D
ReplyDelete:P True... But I don't normally go in for gay soft-porn. :P
(A) Honest...
