The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Well... tonight I'm giving Mystic River a chance. It better be a good movie, since I hate everybody that's in it. :-)

More to the point... I'm now about fifty minutes into this movie and I'm still not sure what it is about. It might be a crime drama. But maybe not.

You know, Mystic River was an excellent movie. All of those guys can act, they're just stupid when it comes to politics!

Well, yeah... and it's at least got Kevin Bacon in it, and I don't hate him.

Hmm... Kevin Bacon... something tells me that I know somebody that knows somebody that knows somebody that knows him. Can't recall. :-)

Rather...

Heh...that's why I like "Reign of Fire" so much. Kind of a silly movie, but it has Matthew McConaughey, Christian Bale, and Gerard Butler all in one movie. Nice...

This. Movie. Is. Messed. Up.

Well done. But really twisted. Eastwood is a better director than High Plains Drifter might suggest.

But... "Music by Clint Eastwood"???? Waassup wit dat?

We just got Reign of Fire from Netflix, again, a few weeks ago. It was an enjoyable movie!

I thought the music as kinda interesting; jazzy, somewhat. Did you ever see the movie Line of Fire? Eastwood plays the piano in some bar; just tinkering on the keys. He didn't do too badly at all! ;o)

It was a twisted kind of movie, but a good one, nonetheless. An object lesson against losing control when you're angry, that's for sure.

Maybe we'll get C&CF from Netflix. I wasn't interested enough to spend $8 to see it at the theater.
