This Blog is an outlet for the random thoughts of an amateur opinionator.
What's an opinionator?
An opinionator is somebody who has power without responsibility, and the ability to spout off on any subject without worrying too much about the consequences of what comes out of the mouth. All you need is an opinion and the opportunity to voice it.
TV is full of professional opinionators. The internet gives the amateur his chance.

I watched this movie earlier before going to sleep. I was just too tired of everything and was just too disappointed with some of my friends from work. I just don't wanna be affected that much, good thing Dian texted me earlier explaining his side. Although I have long understood it, it felt good.
Anyway, back to the movie. I was not overly interested in watching it but there was nothing else on so I figured, what the heck!
I'm glad I took the time to watch it though because it was definitely entertaining. I found myself laughing constantly over simple, subtle actions and dialogues. Oh well.
The story revolves around Max Skinner, a successful English investment banker. His uncle died recently and has left him a vineyard in Provence. As he try to renovate the vineyard to get a good price out of its sale, he reluctantly discovers a different kind of life from what he's used to. He gets flashes of memories of his childhood in the vineyard that reminded him how much he loved living in that place.
The movie has its misses but I enjoyed watching it.
Here are a few excerpts of the conversations in the movie:
Fanny: Are they good memories?
Max: No. They're grand!
Madame Duflot: What does sodomy means?
Monsieur Duflot: I'll show you tonight.
Watch it without any expectations and you just might like it. Enjoy!
