Driving Home Quietly




Last night Andrew and I drove home in silence, no doubt trying to stave off the comparisons that anyone in a marriage would have drawn up having just seen Blue Valentine. Luckily, in our case, the parallels stop just after a pregnant afternoon wedding with the court justice, but I was thoughtful anyway, just enough to feel very, very thankful to have Andrew - and, naturally, determined "not to let us end up like those two." Guys, go see this movie. I can't pretend to be a movie critic, and while anyone else with a theater background will have every technical angle covered I'm sure, all I can say is this: I'm very glad we were able to see it. I think it was well done. Beautiful, quite naturally human, sad and honest.
