printswatch the new bunheads on hulu!!!
Watched it during my lunch break (on the ABC Family player, which recycles the same ads for Febreze/Olay/Clairol each ad break, UGH), and I lurved the dance to the Britten tune (‘Cuckoo’).
That actually is my favorite Bunheads episode so far — it’s like they’re finally finding their rhythm or something. Plus, Liza frickin’ Weil!
My top ten films for 2012 (click for larger image):

I still love you, Moonrise Kingdom. You’re the only movie I saw twice in the theatre this year. And now I own you on DVD!
Moonrise Kingdom (2012) - Directed by Wes Anderson
I love you, but you don’t know what you’re talking about.
Stupid habit I need to break
Laughing when something is funny, then looking around for affirmation to make sure other people are laughing too, and if they’re not laughing, stopping.
LAUGH LIKE NOBODY’S WATCHING, NELLIE
I saw Moonrise Kingdom a second time (thanks, Mom*) on July 4th and the 60-something man sitting next to me kept looking at me whenever I would giggle or laugh. Which, honestly, wasn’t as often as I had during the first viewing, BUT WHATEVER. I just ignored him and kept laughing.
*My mom got so excited about the use of this song in the film that she exclaimed (louder than she meant to, I think) that she hadn’t heard it in years…
Why Is There So Much Britten In 'Moonrise Kingdom'? : Deceptive Cadence : NPR
My friend J posted this to my FB wall because she knows I wondered this, exactly.
Britten: The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra / Rattle · Berliner Philharmoniker (by BerlinPhil)
Moonrise Kingdom = SO MUCH BENJAMIN BRITTEN. Even the score by Desplat was very Britten-esque. He’s not my favorite composer, but I enjoyed the movie anyway.

Not a huge Wes Anderson fan, but given that Jette loved this movie and a friend asked me to see it with him tomorrow night, I guess I’ll be checking Moonrise Kingdom out. Also, I love a chance to visit the Violet Crown Cinema! (Jette’s Review: Moonrise Kingdom | Slackerwood)
