"Then on Saturday night, we got stoned and watched Julie Taymor's Across the Universe ..."

Good for you. Prob'ly did you a world of good. Glad you're edging your way toward feeling better.

Taymor's an interesting auteur. Like a bazillion others, TITUS was my intro to her work, and she struck me as a kind of Technicolor Kathryn Bigelow. Haven't seen ACROSS THE UNIVERSE yet. Will add it to The List.
