ararat

2:20 am on Sunday, September 7th, 2003

I’m part Armenian; did you know that? I have the unibrow to prove it. Atom (pronounced ah-tome) Egoyat directs Ararat, about the Armenian Genocide, and you must watch it immediately. It’s such a convoluted movie. Usually I resent serious movies for manipulating my emotions, but this one was too complex and too subtle for me to resent it. I’m going to stop talking about it before I become kitschy. I can’t articulate this at all. I don’t usually like movies this much.

Why isn’t anyone awake so I can wax lyrical to them?
