Sideways

"Did You Drink And Dial?"

I'd heard so many good things about Sideways and being an oenophile, I couldn't wait to see it.  You want to talk about wine snob, Miles, the main character, is a wine snob extraordinaire.  His sidekick Jack, no matter what they taste, says, "Tastes all right to me!" 

A very funny quirky movie with some great lines in it and many laugh out loud hard parts.  Even if you're not into wine.

Glad to see you back!

Haven't seen sideways yet. I had heard it was more of a guy's movie, so it was nice to see your recommendation as well.

My last movie was Kung Fu Hustle. Not for everybody, I'm sure--very idiosyncratic!--but I thought it was great.

Now you've seen the movie, meeting me will be anti-climax.

What I'm Reading

  • Edward Ugel: Money For Nothing
    Subtitled, One Man's Journey Through The Dark Side Of Lottery Millions. (****)
  • Susan Braudy: This Crazy Thing Called Love
    The true story behind the Billy Woodward shooting, the case on which Dominick Dunne based his novel, The Two Mrs. Grenvilles. (*****)
  • Matt Birbeck: A Beautiful Child
    True story about the mysterious life and death of a young woman who's real identity still remains unclear. Excellent read. (****)
  • Richard Yates: Revolutionary Road
    A novel about the alienation arising from living in the "perfect" suburbs. Hailed as a great literary book. I thought it was okay, at best. (**)
  • Annie Proulx: Close Range, Wyoming Stories
    A collection of lyrical short stories from Annie Proulx that contains Brokeback Mountain among other gems. (****)
  • John Grisham: The Innocent Man
    I can only quote from the jacket blurb: "If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you." A must read. (*****)
  • Nancy Caldwell Sorel: The Women Who Wrote The War
    Fascinating look at women journalists at the front during WWII. (****)
  • Jack Olsen: Charmer
    Riveting true crime by a master. (****)
  • Ann Rule: Too Late To Say Good Bye
    Excellent telling of the Bart Corbin cases. (****)
  • Michael Crichton: Airframe
    Ehhh. Better than the back of a cereal box, I guess. (**)
