Finally got around to seeing Fish Tank. Really lovely, awesome movie. The dance scene at the end is probably one of the most iconic scenes I’ve ever seen in a while. There’s this really incredible essay in the booklet of the DVD which really inspires me to see more of Andrea Arnold’s work and her contemporaries. It refers a lot to Ken Loach and Alan Clarke who I’ve never heard of before but since I enjoy seeing a different side of England, I think I’ll check them out.

I feel like I needed this movie because there’s been a lot of uninteresting movies out lately. I’ve been fairly bored with television too. And then I feel very out-of-touch, like maybe there’s something wrong with me to not care or know anything. I guess all I need is a really good book and some Alice Donut. And Rihanna too.

Gah, I’m so lame. But who cares. Movie trailers, new albums…I’ll get to them when I can. Three years on, Fish Tank is still incredible. And Michael Fassbender is still around.
