Nick Eddy's Film Forumz Friday

1. just saw a story on Gawker where firemen kept a kid from panicking in a stuck elevator by singing "Let It Go" from Frozen at him/her.  How do all these fireman know this song?  Their kids?  Did anyone even see Frozen?  What IS GOING ON?

2. People say to me constantly "Nick Eddy - what is your day job like?, and I'm ashamed that I'm not doing more so you don't have to work at all!"  Well, thanks - I appreciate the sentiment!  As for my job, it's like this: the Bride and I have a commitment to go see The Grand Budapest Hotel tomorrow.  But if I say I'm going to a movie, I can't say which one here - because no one will know what I'm talking about.  I also can't say that I haven't really cared about old Wes's films since about 3/4ths of the way through The Life Aquatic, because my words would just float away, not comprehended, across limitless expanses of space/time.

If I were to say what I'm going to see, "they" would say, "Oh, is that the new Schwarzegger movie?  My husband wants to see that!" or perhaps "you should see Frozen!"
