When It's All "Up In The Air"




In the Oscar awards in my head, Vera Farmiga won for Best Actress, Anna Kendrick for Best Supporting Actress, and Best Movie -- Up In The Air. For me, it wasn't so much a movie about the commitment-phobic guy. It was about the women, in that guy's life.


It's been a long time since a movie has had moments that ring so true, that life comes to a screeching halt, and I'm left in a haze of discomforting thoughts. I'm no Ryan Bingham. I guess I'm one of the girls in his life.

N: "You've set up a way of life, that basically makes it impossible for you to make any human connections. Now, somehow, this woman runs the gauntlet of your ridiculous "life choice" and comes out the other end with a smile -- just so you can call her CASUAL?"

Hahahaha. Right through the heart.
