dya think I should go ahead and buy Lena Dunham's Tiny Furniture or rent it first?

Looks like you've already seen it and enjoyed it. I wouldn't have known what to recommend anyway - even though I liked it a lot. Did you buy it?

Actually right after I asked, I checked netflix and it was streaming. I clicked on at 3am on my laptop in bed, thinking I'd fall asleep somewhere through it but I was laughing out the whole time. She really nails the dialogue. I hate having to rate to the movies 1-5 stars.

Is it Winter in Australia yet?

Nope, still Autumn, feels like Winter though which is good.

oh yeah you loved The Last Temptation as well...how great a film was that huh? The opening shot, the score, the overall direction, a far cry from the 3D porn spielberged Hugo, don't you think so? I've been watching many Angelopoulos flicks and there's this composer called Eleni ehe, just wondering you got any Greek blood at all, or....?

Watched it with my religious Nana for Easter and we both loved it. Hugo is a strange one, so many beautiful moments but the more I think about it overall it was disappointing - doubt I'll watch it again. And I fucking hated the 3D! So distracting. Also found Chloe Moretz's over emphatic facial expressions sooo annoying. Yes, my Dad is Greek but it was my Mum who chose the name after seeing the Peter Yates film 'Eleni' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089079/). My surname is actually Sarris but I prefer my middle name, Ashton. Eleni is a really common Greek name but most Australians with the name "change" it to Helen.
