Quantum of Solace

The new Bond movie has its premiere tonight (in Sweden) and I was hoping that it would be out in Austria at the same day, but unfortunately it wasn’t. I usually joke about Austria being a developing country (considering the somehow bizarre experiences I have had during the last seven weeks), but this goes even beyond. I had to comfort myself by passing by the watch shops’ windows and drool in front of their monters with elegant portraits of Daniel Craig showing off his Omega. This picture turns me on in a morbid way.

Anyhow, I couldn’t see Quantum of Solace and I will have to wait a few weeks due to heavy workload, but I saw another movie instead. I saw Burn After Reading with Brad Pitt, George Clooney and John Malkovich. Short reflection: Funny scenes, funny characters (but with the wrong set of actors) and horrific story. It was hurtful to see Brad Pitt in that kind of role, he is too good for that. It was tragic to see George Clooney in his role too because it was unworthy. John Malkovich was funny though, but all in all, it was as if Jim Carrey would start acting in drama movies, it just doesn’t sit right.

In a few weeks time…
