My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
Ok....it's chick flick time!I know I'm like a year behind in viewing this film, but last week I finally rented Sex and the City.
The reason why I didn't go see it last May is because the whole experience of going to the movies has gradually turned into some sort of Chinese TORTURE.
Let's see, there's.....
...the price of the movie ticket.
...the price of the popcorn.
...the 200 movie previews that I'm FORCED to sit through.
...the sound of people talking and sitting so close, that they might as well be straddling my EARS.
...and my all-time favorite torture...the delightful sound of cell phones ringing.
You see, this is why god invented DVD'S.
Also, another reason why I didn't see the film is because I don't have cable, therefore, I had only seen maybe a handful of episodes and loved them, yet never really got hooked on them enough to make me want to rush out and watch the film.
I had also heard from several people who enjoyed the TV show, that the movie was over-rated and not very good.
Well, I've gotta say....I thoroughly enjoyed it!
In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I watched it THREE times.
And part of why I enjoyed this film so much, is because I'm secretly in love with Sara Jessica Parker. And if I were straight, Sara Jessica Parker would definitely be my girlfriend. So Matthew Broderick better be DAMN glad that I prefer male genitalia.
There's something in the way that Sara is put together that I find very attractive and sexy.
Her personality. Her sense of style. Her body.
She's adorable.
Anyway, back to the movie....
What's not to enjoy? I mean, it's not only hysterical and over-the-top, but it also has levels of real-life honesty. And the soundtrack is awesome.
And even though I'm not a fashion mongrel, watching all those clothes EXPLODE on the screen got me very excited. Didn't you love the Vogue photo shoot?
(I rewound that part at least 3 times)
And I guess because I've just recently been reunited with the Big Apple, seeing it as the backdrop for this film made me realize why I enjoy it's cornucopia of visual flavors.
Last week, a customer at work told me that another Sex and the City film is in the making.
And if that's the case...the second it comes out on DVD, this man will sitting in front of his TV screen, sipping a glass of red wine; waiting for Sara Jessica Parker to make her entrance.
But in the meantime, I'll just fantasize about it.....
