So, I am sick, and when I am sick my creativity and motivation plummet. I had a really good idea for a topic for this blog a few days ago, but its gone, having been replaced by a forest of facial tissues in my trash can. So, I will instead blog about my love for Quentin Tarantino films.
Yesterday I made the journey into Lincoln, nose clogged and head swirling, just so I could pick up the newly released DVD of Choke that the Walmart in Seward neglected to have. Lincoln neglected to stock this gem in any of the stores I visited, either, so I picked up the collector's editions of Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown, Tarantino's 2nd and 3rd films. I had seen Pulp Fiction before [as the 5 foot long poster in my living room proudly announces my love for], but Jackie Brown had eluded me for years. In fact, it is the only Tarantino film I had yet to see. Returning home groggy, but alive, I ceased to make my presence known in the world for over 5 hours while I watched both films [with a quick intermission during Pulp Fiction to join a friend at the bar].
I don't know what it is exactly, but Tarantino can't seem to do wrong in my eyes [wait, he did Death Proof...maybe he's done one wrong thing]. I own Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, and Death Proof, and once I feel confident in my financial position again, the Kill Bill films shall find their way into my collection, as well. He's brilliant and creative. Enough said.
I'm going to take more medicine, lie down, and possibly suffer through Death Proof just to make sure I don't like it.
