Last night we saw Brendan Gleeson the guy from In Bruges and Harry Potter (he doesn’t have that eyepatch irl :P). He was in Pathe De Munt in Amsterdam and somebody recognized him and took a picture with him. I think this was actually one of the first times I saw a celebrity. It was so special! and stuff.

We were actually there to see Yes Man which is really funny. I used to think Jim Carrey was just annoying but I started liking him over the years. Anyway, worth watching =)

On the way back home after seeing the movie Blindness, I realized how much it is like Children of Men. In Children of Men people can’t get pregnant anymore which results in a big chaos in the world. In Blindness lots of people suddenly start getting blind. What results in both movies is that we see the main characters living in a small group of people where some people get violent and a big conflict occurs. After that, both movies move to a different setting where the main characters move out into a bigger world with more chaos and problems on a different scale. Finally the movies end with some kind of hope for the future. And of course Julianne Moore plays in both movies :P

Anyway, I liked Children of Men so, not surprisingly, I also liked Blindness although it was slightly messy in some places. Oh and the surround sound in some blind scenes was pretty cool so it’s worth watching/hearing =)
