movies are dangerous.
they make you feel things. they add a sense of poetry to, what i suppose we can call, nonfiction. granted, most movies ARE fiction (even if inspired by nonfictional occurances)... but if you are like me, you tend to forget that.
there is poetry to our nonfictional world. but it's not the kind you find in movies. whether you believe in a higher power of sorts or not, at best, this life only has one editor (who also happens to be the director and producer. budgeting, you know) and a shitload of actors who all think that they are the star of the show.
not exactly the formula for an oscar winner.
so while i continue to live vicariously through movies... and while i still look for a love that you only find in those movies... i've gotta make sure i don't overlook all of the imperfectly poetic moments my screen play is in the middle of.
