I went to see The Tourist again today. I couldn't help it!

First, they had to postpone putting in my new furnace until next week b/c of too many emergencies where people were totally without heat. Plus, my cousin is back from her lengthy holiday cruise. I mentioned to her over lunch that while she was away, they seemed to have changed The Tourist from a thriller to a comedy -- I told her about the Golden Globe nominations... and she was, like, you're kidding, and then one thing led to another and suddenly we were back at that movie.

Oddly, there were more people in the theater watching it this afternoon then there had been on opening night, so perhaps it's selling better as a comedy. I don't know. I still wasn't nuts about it. And this time I made a very concerted effort to NOT look at Angelina's eye make-up. But it is so hard not to look at. Plus, it makes you notice that in most of the scenes, it looks as though they completely forgot to put any make-up whatsoever on Johnny Depp's eyes -- they disappear. You know, it's one extreme to the other, all in one scene.

So, sometimes I'm sitting there thinking, "How can she even keep her eyes open with those unbelievably thick false eyelashes on?" and oher times, "Why the hell are his eyes disappearing like that? He usually has the most beautiful eyes in the world!" and still other times, I'm thinking, "that eye shadow is just unreal; there must be about 17 million different colors blended there."

In fact, those eye lids should be hung in the Louvre, you know? So that the amazing mastery of blending shadows can truly be appreciated by people all over the world. And maybe if you stand right up close, it looks like one thing -- made-up eye lids, let's say. But if you stand really far away, they look like umbrellas on a Paris street in the rain. Who knows??!! All I know is that it distracts like hell from the movie!! Which is perhaps cute & clever but is still not a comedy!!

I do have to say that I loved that incredible hotel suite. And I do actually like to watch Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie talking to each other, regardless of what they're saying. Just, you know, even the make-up out a little bit. Give him more; her less. In fact, it would be cool to just see an entire movie of Johnny & Angie in the hotel suite, talking and walking around. I would love that! Yes, I would actually go see a movie like that. If I were any good at writing grants, I'd try to get funding for a film like that and hire people to make it for me. Instead of My Dinner with Andre , it could be Two Gorgeous People in a Beautiful Hotel Suite Talking.

I'm so fucking serious; I would so go see that!
