A monolog after a movienight.

Bergen is a city just the way a city should be.
With a clear mind it will make you think in the middle of the night.

To walk back home after a movie-marathon can be a delightful experience, of reenacting the core of the movies left in my mind. What stands out to me can be totally different from anyone else, but I know that I enjoy the vivid actions that is on display in my head when I head back home.

Tonight was even a little bit more vivid than the usual return after a movie-night. Tonight the surroundings enhanced the walk back home a great deal. The empty streets, the dozens of red spheres hovering over the park, that in real life is the streetlights. The sounds of the still so alive city, the rhythm and the water in continuos motion, while the moon bathes the wet streets, buildings, trees and the city bay, in a cool light. At one point while crossing a bridge the vivid scenes from the movies where totally overtaken by the scene that played out in front of me.

The cliché was complete, and all I had to do was just to suck it in while walking the last two kilometers to the house.

All that being said:
- Transformers Salvation is a unique movie with a script that exposes the total lack of artistic ambitions from the creators. This is just a product of the need to earn money. The robots are well animated, but the only good this movie can do is to bring cash to other movie-project with a little bit more integrity.
On the other side:
- Watchman was great. Simply put because it dares! A script that speculates and plays with our political opinions, the value of our ideologies and the value of human sacrifice. The movie dares to be incorrect and to stand out. The suspense builds up and down in a soothing pace, and the use of flashbacks, monolog and effects are balanced. This is not the best movie of all time, but its the best I have seen in a while!

And tomorrow I start on yet another painting, and I am also posting new pictures from Folgefonna and the skiing there!
