Bad Education.

After David and I woke up and took care of each other’s morning erections, I prepared breakfast and David went to work. So, having the day to myself, I decided to catch up on my movies. Dressing fabulously and rather sexy, I took off to the El Con Mall and checked out Pedro Almodóvar’s Bad Education. The movie was terrific! Gael Garcia was fantastic and the whole film left me homesick for Mexico. (Even though it took place in Spain.)
The film was an erotic telling of passion, blackmail, double identities, Catholic boy-loving priests, and heroin-addicted transvestites. And the urge to turn this into a movie by aspiring actor Ignacio, played by that sexy midget Gael Garcia. Dear Reader, I strongly recommend this film if you like intriguing gay cinema. And it made me horny, the sex scenes were hot. Boy, when David gets home tonight, it'll be time for a little bada-bing!
I then snuck into and saw the new Keanu Reeves movie Constantine. It was okay. Basic comic book on film. He plays a freelance exorcist with some great effects. I enjoyed Bad Education more.
After stopping in a local bar downtown, The Green Iguana, I downed a Corona and a burrito machaca amidst drunken Indians. Walked around downtown and perused a local bookshop. One film I want to see is War of the Worlds. That was the first book I had ever read when I was but a sprite. I remember walking home from school and looking down at this pile of garbage was a ragged copy of H. G. Well's The War of the Worlds. I remember sitting on the back porch of my mother’s house and reading it cover to cover. I loved the 1955 George Pal take on it and await to see was Spielberg does with it. The trailer looked awesome. Inspired by the films and trailers I saw today, I went home and started to bang out my new screenplay called Porno. It is about two guys that find romance in a porno theater. It is a comedy.

OMG, I believe from my blog and from my website you can tell how much I adored ¨La Mala Educacion¨, wasn´t it brilliant? Cool, I didn´t know anyone who liked it til now. Where can I send you my address?

That movie rocked, I highly recomend that you look into more almodovar films, "Todo sobre mi madre" is a kick ass film, u can probably rent it at blockbuster, you'll start seeing and Almodovar pattern while watching this and comparing it to "La mala educacion"
Also try "Diarios de motocicleta" Gael is in it as well, notthing homoerotic about it but still its cool.
Peace!

"Hot Spanish Boys and Sulphur Dripping Demons" nicely sums up my love life, minus the hot Spanish boys. But that's beside the point.

I thought Constantine was pretty goofy (the Bible... in HELL!!!), but it was good fun for the most part. I'm a sucker for stories where the war between good and evil takes place right under the noses of unsuspecting humans. Keanu is a great smoker. He smokes better than he talks. Yup.

I haven't seen Bad Education yet, but your post reminded me of the awesomeness of Almodovar. All About My Mother and Talk To Her are unspeakably great, and Live Flesh features a paralyzed man eating out his girlfriend in a bathtub. Now that's cinema.
