better with time?


You know how sometimes when you do stuff that you haven't done for many years you always say - nah, this is not as good as I remember it. We often do that about some food that we tried many years ago, a tv show that we have seen etc. Well sometimes there are things which are just as good as you remember them if not better.

Tonight they we showing Hero on TV. Its a movie with Dustin Hoffman, Gina Davis and Andy Garcia from 1992 . And the movie is really good. I hadn't seen it for years and was a really pleasant surprise. I guess the saying - they don' make them as good as they used to - lately is really applying to the movie business. So many movies are crap that I wonder who goes to see them - more so that they are breaking all kind of records for ticket sales and revenue.





Here is a trailer to the movie. Maybe someone else would like to see it if you haven't done so already:




And to quote one for the main characters at the movie:
Bernie LaPlante: You remember when I said how I was gonna explain about life, buddy? Well the thing about life is, it gets weird. People are always talking ya about truth. Everybody always knows what the truth is, like it was toilet paper or somethin', and they got a supply in the closet. But what you learn, as you get older, is there ain't no truth. All there is is bullshit, pardon my vulgarity here. Layers of it. One layer of bullshit on top of another. And what you do in life like when you get older is, you pick the layer of bullshit that you prefer and that's your bullshit, so to speak.
