Let the Oscar Race Begin!

The To-Do list has a few more To-Dones on it than it did Friday night, I'm happy to say--the biggest of which is that I just got back from seeing The Departed.

Holy.

Freaking.

Cow.

Now, I admit that I haven't been my normal movie-going self this year, but this is easily the best drama I've seen lately. In fact, I can't remember the last time I saw a movie quite this good.

It's an all-the-way-through-the-credits movie which means that I was so wowed, so glued to it, so in love with the mental place that movie took me that I sat perfectly still until the credits were over.

The only problem is that I'm dying to talk about it with someone who's seen it, because it's the kind of movie where there are some things you know for sure, some things that may or may not be true but weren't laid out in black-and-white, and some things that you need to see it again to be sure of.

Without spoiling anything, I'll explain.



SOMETHING I KNOW FOR SURE: If the sight of blood makes you sick, this probably isn't the movie for you


SOMETHING I REALLY SUSPECT: Leonardo Dicaprio probably isn't with that supermodel anymore because he's meant to be with me.


SOMETHING I NEED TO SEE THE MOVIE AGAIN TO BE SURE OF: Yeah, it probably wouldn't hurt to doublecheck that Leonardo Dicaprio thing.


Okay, more to-dos to get to-done.

later,
Ally

For years and years all I could think about DiCaprio was "he's so YOUNG". Then he made the Howard Hughes movie and I was, like, "WOW!"
