Beginners is a film that explores the complexities of love and loss through the eyes of it’s main character, Oliver, played by Ewan McGregor. The story opens months after his father Hal(Christopher Plummer) has passed away. After drowning in a sea of depression Oliver meets and falls in love with a young, beautiful and spontaneous french woman named Anna(Melanie Laurent). This new love floods his mind with memories of his father whom after his mother passed- at age 75- opens up to Oliver about being gay and living a vibrant gay lifestyle. Oliver, who has had a history of pushing women away must now make a sacrifice to keep the woman he has now fallen in love with.
Beginners is one of those gems that sneaks into theaters and is gone before you know it. The story utilizes flashbacks involving Oliver’s deceased parents and explores the contrast of love and marriage in the 60′s and 70″s versus the present. Each moment is handled with care especially in dealing with his fathers death. Charlie Chaplin knew that the best relief for drama was laughter, which is exactly how the director, Mike Mills, approaches this film. He shows us that in the midst of great pain, and even love, there can be humor. This film shines a beautiful light on the hilarity, joy and pains of love and will have you walking away with a smile because it shows you the beauty of everyday life, love and comforts you in it’s portrayal of the loss of a loved one.
You may be reading this and thinking to yourself “but what the heck is Beginners about?” Well it’s about a lot of things and it’s layers run deep, so your best bet is to just go see it.
Deleon’s Final Dish: Superb story, great cast and wonderful direction, which means “be sure and check this one out”. Any true movie fan will enjoy it. Promise!
So, if you walk into your home and find it has been burglarized, what’ would you expect to find – maybe, all the drawers dumped, TV’s gone or just some straight vandalism type mess, right? Not if these weird Mutha Suckas had been there.Just ask Roderick Ward from Atlanta.
“There was dog hair everywhere so I was like, ‘Somebody done wash the dog in my house!’ I just couldn’t believe it,” says Roderick Ward, of Newton County, Atlanta. In his kitchen, he found a birthday cake.
“They had brushed their teeth with the new toothbrush travel kit that I had with dental floss and everything and combed their hair.”
The world is a strange place, and although it’s kinda funny at first glance, this story is actually a little scary, but not as scary as that damn dog in the pic!!!(chill runs thru body)
Wacky reported on a Massachusetts man who, after feeling ripped off by a car dealership, drove his van into said dealership in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He turned himself in right after. What we didn’t know is that David Cross, praised by many on the internet for his actions, had a suspended license at the time. So not only was he charged with the expected felonies, he earned himself an additional count of driving with a suspended license. That’s just idiotic!
From the horse’s mouth(WISH TV):
Forty-two-year-old David Cross of Salisbury, Mass., was charged with six felony counts of criminal mischief and one count of driving with a suspended license after he deliberately crashed his van into six cars at the Portsmouth Used Car Superstore in July.
In court Monday, Cross told the Portsmouth Herald that he was stressed out about money and that he made a bad decision.
“Made a bad decision”? Naw, Really!?!?
Sup,
I’m usually working on Sundays, so no church, no football and, definitely, no chicks with porn star bodies frolicking in the water. Rev Run’s daughter, Angela Simmons, and her friends were at it again on Miami Beach, minus the drinking this time, probably cuz it was Sunday. They just played in the water and did a little slap boxing, which, in all fairness, could be one of the sexiest things you’ll ever witness on a beach. Have I expressed how much I’m gonna miss Summer?
Sup,
Summer’s winding down so Angela Simmons decided to remind the male population of what we’ll be missing thru the cold season, and Rev Run’s daughter, most definitely, got her point across. Here she is in all her thick, chocolate splendor, chillin’ in Miami, drinking, swimming and imitating a plumber as best she can. Job well done, Ms. Simmons!
Sup,
This video is a perfect example of why I fear the future. I would equate a Cybergoth Dance Party to a Hip Hop Knitting Class – absolutely, unequivocally unfathomable and totally unnecessary!!!
Sup,
Taligate much? Me neither, although I’d love to. But if you do, the fellas over at Cool Material have listed the best, and cheapest, tailgate beers to suck down during the festivities. Check ‘em out!
Sup,
So, Dockers is sponsoring some contests around the country, this Saturday, involving Sports, Spirits and Stripping. No really, I’m serious! They are sending teams out to various sports bars in major cities around the U.S. and selling it as follows – “Dare to drop trou and slip into the new Dockers Alpha Khakis to win a free pair of pants. Come by, grab a drink, watch the games. When you’re good and ready, take the challenge and wear the pants.”
When you’re good and ready? I’m no scientist, but I’m pretty sure that’s P.C. for “good and drunk”. Guys, be careful! You’ll be D.W.I.ing it(Dressing While Intoxicated), and I can’t remember a time when that ever went smoothly. Men in their drawers will most likely have me chillin’ at the crib, since that’s not my thing, as if I really have a choice. I live like 900 miles from the nearest city. Sounds like a good time, so I encourage those who can to check it out.
Anyway, peep the flyers below to find out where it’s happening in your town or, at least, near your town:
Sup,
Jessica White was in New York for Fashion Week at Lincoln Center, or maybe she’s always in New York ‘cuz she lives there, but anyway, she was there in a white dress that even the angels above, I’m sure, were in awe of! I’m such the poet! If Jessica were a drink, I’d lap her up, urinate, and have to think twice about re-lapping her up………..maybe! Gross? Oh well! Take that picture with ya’ and enjoy!
You’re chillin’ at the crib after, let’s say, a nice meal and starting to wind down, when there’s a knock at the door. You answer and hear something to this effect: “Hi, I’m your neighbor. Hey, do I have permission to dump a dead body in your trash can?” Huh? What do you say to something like that? How do you react? Well, just ask this chick from Tacoma, Washington.
Tacoma police say a man suspected of dumping a body in a trash can asked his neighbors for permission before placing the corpse in the receptacle.Police spokesman officer Mark Fulghum says after the 20-year-old suspect talked to his neighbors, they went to the trash can in the 500 block of East 36th Street and saw the victim’s body. Fulghum says the couple left the area, spotted two gang unit officers nearby and told them about the body and their neighbor’s request to use the trash can to dispose of it. As the officers were investigating, the suspect walked out of a nearby residence and was taken into custody.
A woman who asked KIRO 7 not to use her name or show her face out of fear of repercussions said her next-door neighbor came to her home and asked her to help him dispose of a body.”(He asked) if we would help him, that he just killed somebody and there was a dead body in his house, and if we would help him dispose of the body in the trash can in the alley,” she said. “He was really calm and laughing about it, so we thought it was a joke at first.”
I probably woulda laughed as I slammed the door in his face, which probably woulda landed me in a neighboring trash receptacle, but that’s just crazy.

Sup,
The Dallas Cowboys and Notre Dame Fighting Irish have been over-promising and under-delivering for years now. It’s time to stop believing, Guys, but we’ll be back at it next year. The Cowboys and Irish were both slappin’ their opponents, and then they both lost. The Jets beat the Cowboys 27-24 on a Nick Folk(of all people) 50-yard field goal, while the Wolverines beat the Irish 35-31 on a last-second touchdown pass by Denard Robinson, who had 3 interceptions in the game. I don’t even like Notre Dame and was disgusted!
