Wonderful music, hilarious movie. Incredible amount of car-crashes, too.

The other day we went to see “About Schmidt”, a movie with Jack Nicholson. A fantastic movie! Nicholson is just the perfect actor for this type of character-movies.
The movie swung between sadness, melancholy and absolute hilarious moments (the waterbed-scene is just terrific). It had been a long time since I laughed so hard at a movie.

We went to the Chess New Year’s party yesterday, in Zeist. Sasha and I got a ride from Mark and Saskia. It was uncertain till the very last moment if we would be on time… but we made it! Well, at least for the main course of the dinner.

We came back from Amsterdam, we went to good-old Pathé Arena tonight. We’ve seen quite a lot of movies there when we still lived in Florijn. It’s a great theater (and a lot better than the ones in Haarlem).
Tonight we saw Simone. I had high expectations but we were disappointed… Too simple story, bad acting: not recommendable. On the other hand, we still had a nice evening with an hilarious moment in the metro. We were discussing some secret stuff (in Bulgarian of course) when the guy opposite us started talking on his mobile… in Bulgarian!

We went to see Minority Report yesterday. It’s a nice movie - liked it a lot.
In a few minutes we’ll be leaving for a demo in Den Haag.

It was a nice evening with musaka and a movie: “Kissing a Fool”. Quite amusing. If you have a decent internet connection you could look at the movie’s trailer here (in QuickTime), or at a longer preview here.

Alex & I just saw Bridget Jones Diary, a wonderful romantic and funny movie. Really very nice, highly recommendable. Guusbosman.nl has been unreachable for a few hours (from 17:00 to 23:15) — security too tight ;)
