I've never been to the Natural History Museum
posted by RICK : 1:27 PM
Yesterday I went to see some movies. They included, "The Squid and the Whale," "Good Night, and Good Luck," and "Waiting." The cream of the crop was Squid. It might actually be the best film of the year. MIGHT. I haven't decided yet. It's main competitor, "Mysterious Skin" blew me away last spring, but suffers from that very fact-- it was released last spring. Spring movies rarely leave a mark, though I might argue that they do stand a better chance of being timeless. Anyway, that's beside the points. What really matters is that there is a pivotal, thesis-like scene at the end of Squid that takes place in the Natural History museum, and I've never been. It looks amazing. And kind of scary. Two things any good museum should be. I should really go as soon as possible. Hell, maybe even today.
