Writing
Lately I've been feeling like writing a lot, mostly reviews. I start to feel weird when I haven't really been writing for a while, same as when I haven't been sculpting or taking pictures or maybe programming. I think life might be easier if I didn't have so many things I always want to do with it.

So anyway, I started writing a review of Dasavatharam a few weeks ago (it's fantastic; I caught it at a cinema in Glasgow) but I'm still only a paragraph in... and I fully intended to write a proper review of Footsbarn's wonderful Midsummer Night's Dream when I saw it, and maybe also the mostly-excellent but flawed Elizabeth and Raleigh with Simon Munnery, and perhaps I still will... and I'd like to do a review of Arkle's production of Wyrd Sisters (with diotina and eduard_green in it), which I enjoyed greatly, but maybe it's a bit hard for me to be objective there so I don't really know if I should. I wish I had more time for all this stuff, but mostly I need to keep working on my PhD.

I did manage to finish a review of Brazil today, though. I've been wanting to ever since I re-watched it last week. Actually I remember I wanted to when I watched it a year and a half ago, too, but I think I needed to see it again for it to really crystallise. If anyone's interested, here's the review on Everything2, and experimentally, here it is on Google Knol as well. Still not at all sure what to make of the latter...
