Irreversible


Gaspar Noe's brilliant revenge rape film starring Vincent Cassel and Monica Bellucci is brutal and uncompromising. The film told in reverse chronological order like Memento(only this blows Memento out of the water) is horrifically violent in parts,don't watch it if you don't have a strong stomach. Yet I couldn't take my eyes off some of the most shocking and uncomfortable scenes I've seen. This is an experience you wont forget, it completely destabilizes the viewer and forces you to engage on so many different levels. On a lighter note,the chemistry between real life husband and wife duo Vincent Cassel and Monica Bellucci is electrifying. I'd forgotten how sexy Cassel is and Bellucci is one gorgeous woman. The film also sticks a middle finger up at the neat, hollywood notions of happy endings.Sometimes there are no explanations for why things happen, sometimes there are no happy endings.Cassel stated "It shows us the animal inside us" which sums it up perfectly, the animal we all want to repress.

Couple Stalking!


It's official, I'm obsessed with Common and Serena Williams. After Flotus and Barack they've become my second favourite couple.He's the handsome,talented,sexy,sensitive conscious hip hop super star and she's the beautiful, amazonian tennis icon.The ultimate competitor and I love her for it! She is unapologetic about who she is. They are so sweet together. I love how in photos of Serena training, Common is there in the background not doing anything useful at all, just loitering about looking conspicuous, too cute! Rumour has it that Common wants to wife up Serena. Please get married and have adorable,talented,deep babies so I can stalk the whole family online.Lol!
