Day 14: When Will I Be Loved (2004)

First off:
Whoops, I didn't get to see a movie yesterday, was moving out of the apartment all day with Blake. I passed out soon after reaching home, and woke up at 1:40 a.m. I had to see something. This was the shortest movie I could find. I'll watch some more stuff today to make up for it.

What's it about?
Neve Campbell plays a bored person in New York, explores her sexuality, weird stuff happens.

Random Connections

Mike Tyson is in this movie for some idiotic reason. No, literally, the reason the director chose to put him in was actually idiotic. Even his cameo in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles was better than this.

Thoughts
This is one of the most pretentious movies of all time. It tries way too hard. It would be fun to watch this with other people, to make fun of. What does this movie have that makes it all elitist and shit?

1.) The director casts himself as a pretentious professor who tries to be down to earth.

2.) Neve Campbell's parents argue over who is the best architect.

3.) Some famous character gets pissed when a Beethoven recording isn't by his favorite composer.

4.) Neve Campbell's boyfriend lists some historical figures and compares them to hip hop, in a joke that falls flat.

Then, there are random sex scenes with classical music playing in the background, trying to be all artistic and shit. However, even with those flaws, the story was interesting, and it was short enough to not get too stupid for its own good.

Rating

Oh yeah.
