Who doesn't love Muriel's Wedding!? But that wasn't surreal was it? Looked pretty realistic to me. 'Spotwood' is a very little known Aus film that I like (look for the young Rus Crowe). A girl I went to high school with just directed her first big film. It got rave reviews and some award at Carnes. It's called 'Somersault' and is set, fleetingly, in Canberra, where she and I grew up so I really liked it and 'cause it was v. beautiful. It was a bit on the arty side, therefore didn't do too well in the box-office here. 'Australian Art' Ewwww *spit* I've told you, us white Aus. don't have any culture and were d.a.m.n proud of it!
Do we have a particular humour.. we don't explain a joke after we've told it like some of the 'comedy' shows your great and enormous chinned country export to us... then again neither do the Am. I've met. The US produced Jos Wheadon, Mike Moore, PDog and Zonko who are probably doing more for US foreign affairs than CIA.. opps, sorry, I meant CNN, could ever do.
Have you seen the movie 'Napolean Dynamite'? Fantastic! Now that movie proves that Am. have a sense of humour (I became a little worried after 'White Chicks' and 'Nutty Professor'). Welcome to the post-post modern comedy America!! (If we keep become post-post-post modern, surely that means we are 'middle aged'.)
We don't know much about Dumbledore but I'd never describe him the way JKR's described the HBP (see quote posted by headless hunt above). Therefore I don't think the HBP is Dumbledore. My money's on a new character.  |
