secretarial musings. hi, i'm trendy!

oh, oh oh. yes and.

the trendy thing right now seems to be to want to see Secretary, judging from what I see both from you people and from various boards I read. i was skeptical, because for a while it just seemed like residual Gyllenhaal worship by The Cult Of Donnie Darko. (not that that's a bad thing, but it doesn't necessarily make a new movie worth interest.)

but OMG it looks sexy and JAMES SPADER.
do not make me relate my shameful, shameful crush on James Spader.
jamesspader. *swoon*
he can be my exacting typing taskmaster anytime.
(I did really well on the typing test at the official site, by the way.)
i don't know how this happened. too many 80s movies? stargate?
(hated it, but he looked so cute as the Nerd Hero...)

so i'm going to have to go see this movie.
shut up, i know i'm acting like a girl.
i've confessed; now i have to go be embarrassed about it.

(PS - if you're interested in reading the story that the movie was based on, it's HERE. if you happen to be a young'un who I would not wish to lead to feelthy leeterature - you know who you are, those of you who are fifteen and sixteen years old - use yr discretion. the story is kind of disturbing.)

It's post-ironic to quote Alanis, don'tcha know.

You know. Right.

This is not a question.

I had no real desire to see the movie until I read the short story and meow, I can't wait to see it now. Even though they must have expanded on it. Because a story like that would be a very short movie. Yeah.

yeah... and i get the impression that the relationship in the movie goes further and is more serious than the one in the story.
i just read the story (which i think is kind of depressing) on nerve & am going to add a link to this post. thanks for the heads up. :)

James Spader is one hot looking man! Oh yum!

James Spader is totally awesome. Have you ever seen Jack's Back? It's from '88 and probably my fave movie of is (not that I've seen them all, but). Anyway, in that one he plays two roles (though one of them gets killed off pretty early). rawr!

James Spader rocks! He should perpetually be standing in a highschool stairwell, wearing a white suit, and smoking a cigarette. Nobody plays a better condescending rich guy than him.
