Mr. and Mrs. Smith

After staying until 4am yesterday with a sore throat and precarious state of health, I left early (8pm) from work today citing the need for rest and recuperation. Less than two hours later, I was on a bus heading to Leicester Square to catch "Mr and Mrs Smith".

I was told it wasn't a great movie. I wonder why. Me, I loved it. I loved the way the movie starts off and progresses with the couple talking to the audience in a marriage therapy session. I love the sexyness of the film, and the chemistry and tension between john (brad pitt) and jane (angelina jolie). I love that the movie is about love and marriage, and is a commentary of how there is lack of openness in marriages. The guns and bomb-blasts just add a sexy dimension to the message.

On a personal level, the movie gave me hope. "Mr and Mrs Smith" was cinematical proof that a relationship between two dynamic, successful professionals who are good at what they do, can work. In fact, the combination can be dynamite. Smoking hot.

Probably the best feeling was being able to get out of work, being able to go out on a week night. Meet up with a friend in the industry who I hadn't seen in a long time. Catch up. Chat. Laugh. Be young.

Liquid gold.
