Ah, very nice! only 26.667% of the random songs had something to do with The Beatles!

So, today I finally had a chance, with my brother, to get out and see Children of Men. If, at this late date, you've not had a chance to see it, I urge you to do so. Seriously, it's brilliant. I got thinking about some of the film's themes and how they tie in with some of the other media I've been fond of lately. So, possibly tomorrow I'll delve into some thoughts on sex, isolation, love and apocalypse, and some personal observations concerning the effects forgoing one and embracing another may have on the perception of the final two. Sounds exciting, no?

I'd write it tonight, but I want to think about it a bit more. Plus, the movies I've checked out from the library expire soon, and I really want to watch High Noon at least once, possibly twice.
