Best of the week- First post of 2011!

The best of the week I thought was Once. When you told us we were watching it in class during the final, I was relieved we weren't doing an in class paper or anything, but I thought it was going to be boring and I wasn't too excited. As we were watching the movie, you could tell that they started to like

each other and as the story goes on you want them to end up together. But unfortunately they don't and and that is one way that the movie breaks the status quo, because in every other hollywood produced movie they probably would have ended up together.

I also really liked the music that was in the movie. There were parts in it that made me want to cry. When I was talking to someone in 2nd period they said it was almost like a musical. That kind of made me skeptical because I'm not too big of a musical fan. But I downloaded a few of the songs. I never even heard of the songs before either, even though it won an oscar. Over all I think the movie was really good and it introduced me to new music that I really like.
