All boarding the Ark…
In my old blog I had written about the upcoming movie, Russian Ark. It is now being released in limited venues around the country. Tonight, Becky and I are going to see it at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge! Our tickets are secured, and I’m psyched. This film got a four-star review from the Boston Globe, as well as countless other raves and accolades. The movie follows the tale of a contemporary cinematographer who is transported 300 years into Russia’s past. He is able to walk around the Hermitage Museum and observe various events in Russian history. What is supposed to be truly amazing about the movie is that it was shot in one single continuous take. The camera simply wanders around the museum, from one setting to another. 2000 actors, 3 live orchestras, several months of rehearsal… promises to be VERY cool.
We’ll let you know how it turns out.

i always knew it!
The only book which doesn’t take place in Narnia at all, per se, you’re the story of a voyage to find the end of the world and hopefully the Seven Lost Lords (remember Rhoop!). You contain some of the most unique people and places and beautiful descriptions of the whole series.
Find out which Chronicles of Narnia book you are.
It always was my favourite in the series!

James Taylor and… who?
Many news and entertainment sites mentioned that James Taylor gave a live performance during the 45th annual Grammy Awards last night. But no one so far has mentioned who he was playing WITH… hmm… how about the 13-time Grammy winning Yo-Yo Ma? Huh? Did ya forget about him? Geez, just because he doesn’t sing? So James Taylor is a living legend… but let’s give a little credit to the guy who backed him up, eh?

The Rest of the Weekend
As an addendum to my lengthy entry below, I wanted to say that the rest of the weekend was wonderful as well. Becky and I got to spend a lot of quality time together, in a VERY nice hotel. We had some good food, got to see the city, and slept in very late each day. I have set up a photo gallery of the weekend, and you can see it here.
