The life of Pi The extraordinary journey.


I saw this in Spanish, so the dialogue was lost on me. This also probably affected my capacity to suspend disbelief.

One virtue of Latin American cinema, they start the show from the appointed hour. There were no trailers,

Having recently adopted a puppy. I kept wondering where the Tiger's dung was.. I wondered why there was an Island full of Meerkats, what did they eat..? and Meer kats are Savannah living animals. Why would they be on a Mangrove Island

Nice to see Poincherry, I remember it from 80 days around the world. Here it is shown as a home of Bike riding belle femmes. Speaking of French Icons, Gerald Depardieu makes a cameo

I presume the Taxes went to Belgium or Russia.

I wonder if Pi, converting from Hinduism, to Catholicism, and Islam would have gone down so easily

There is a wow moment for the Audience, when the tiger reappears on the lifeboat. But I was expecting the tiger to reappear again. We saw the tiger on the trailers, and promo.

The audience enjoyed it. Maybe I am just a stick in the mud.

Song for today ``There’s gotta be more…’’

I am borrowing this content for a moment. Yes I am aware I have a child’s musical taste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUOcQnWbk_U&feature=related I used to catch this song,on one of the music channels, a few years ago.  I liked it. Its a nice enough song.  Stacey O, is a sweet young lady. Who tired of the music business and became a volunteer in Africa. I have been listening to it all day today. I downloaded if from Amazon. It catches a moment in adolescence when, you start working, and its mopping floors, or loading books onto barrows. You go to college and its waiting around all day for three hours of lectures, eating instant noodles, and maybe watching Star trek, or the Simpsons  and going to bed. So you go to the club on the weekend. You go to the underwear party. You get drunk, but that’s it isn’t it

Malchera in High school

Will from the in-betweeners, with bad skin, look at the area arround my left eye. I have just had a bout of conjuctiveitis. That and my half smile, to conceal my cracked incisor and dirty teeth... I don't know why I actually possess this picture. School Photographs, now there is racket. They take you out of class, and take your picture, and charge you for the picture. Anyway, my mother never paid for the school photographer. She had 4 children in the same school,  and paying for 4 photographs, would not have been cheap. I do remember the day though. Before me, the busty Kelly Panei, had gone first. The photographer had made a crack about beauty and the beast, so I knocked over his stand on the way out... But for years after, this was my mental image of myself...
