Immersion

Les trajets en avion peuvent parfois être longs. Heureusement, donc, que la plupart des compagnies aériennes proposent une sélection de films et de séries à découvrir sur leurs petits-écrans. Barry Jenkins, coincé dans un aéroplane en pleine tempête, a décidé de boire quelques verres, tout en regardant Coup de foudre à Notting Hill sur l’écran de sa voisine. Généreux, le réalisateur de Moonlight a live-tweeté son expérience, pour le plus grand bonheur des internautes. 

In other news, the woman next to me is watching NOTTING HILL. A few choice folks will get the irony of this happening on my last flight of this sojourn. Also... Julia Roberts is STUNNING in this film. And holy shit Lester Freamon is in this?!

After peeping these dolly/zoom combos in this dinner scene I looked up the director and OF COURSE it’s Roger Michell!!! a G and a Gent, was a Telluride regular for quite some time.

Okay somebody tweeted me that Hugh owns a bookstore, but... on their first date Julia had that braid AND that onesie body suit tucked into jeans and flat heel boots, she was basically Jay-Lo on IN LIVING COLOR! Translation: TEW MUCH FOR HUGH!!!

Clearly a period piece BTW: what kind of bookstore owner has a flat like THAT in NOTTING HILL? This one actually isn’t a joke, what we’ve done to our neighborhoods, to property values and the VALUE of certain jobs is so damn sobering, depressing
