Garden State Again

Oh, I think it was even better the second time. As they were making their way to Albert's Ark, I thought, I could watch this any rainy afternoon when I need some cheering up. Just the right amount of animal jokes, pop culture trivia, trips and sweet romance. Zach Braff wrote, directed , produced and starred in this movie…makes you feel kind of lazy, doesn't it? It was very real, very "in my own backyard" with Sam's crazy quilt house, and details like fall leaves on the cover of an old pool, Andrew's motorcycle helmet, a knight somewhat shiny armour, the bonnet on a baby, and cups of tea served in the Ark. Ian Holm was a grumpy old man, and Natalie Portman, just too cute. And there was a lot of 'random' spoken, perhaps more than Kari during an afternoon at work. Such a Box Office movie- which brings us to the music- the soundtrack! This capped the charm of this movie, the mellow sorts of songs that "makes you want to sit in your living room with a blanket up over your head and listen to all day".
A movie about coming back to your hometown, and finding your home and yourself in someone else- and the most romantic scene in front of a fireplace.

Good luck exploring the infinite abyss.
