Saw Casanova and am in love. It reminded me of those Congreve, Garrick or Sheridan plays that I love so much: witty and twisty and tongue in cheek and funny. And kind and romantic and as light as a perfect souffle. What a real impossible delight. Does it have anything to do with real Casanova? Not at all, and I couldn't care less.

Also, after seeing this, I think Heath Ledger is the perfect Richard for Sheridan's Rivals. Or to be any Congreve hero actually. I've actually thought he was hot since Roar, but here, wearing a splendid waistcoat, powdered hair and heeled shoes, tongue firmly in cheek (sometime his and sometime somebody else's), he is completely irresistable.

Here is a former post on the movie, with pictures from it.

Also, I just got Tiramisu and Turn Left Turn Right because of [livejournal.com profile] koalathebear's posts about them. Any other recs for Asian movies? I don't like them too abstract and sweet is nice. I don't mind violence but if it's only fighting I get bored.

And a last random note. I am toying with the somewhat odd idea of having all 100 of my icons be thematically the same (e.g. from the same fandom). I am thinking Howl's Moving Castle because there are many gorgeous ones there. Is that too crazy and will I miss my others ones though? Hmmm.
