"EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE ONE TALENT. WHAT'S YOURS?"

[fivebyfive]

When people ask me who my favorite writers and/or directors are, I always mention Anthony Minghella, and they never know who that is. He hasn't made a large number of films and he's far from a household name, but the films he's made are classy and elegant, and in at least a couple cases, brilliant. Plus he's that rare breed of writer/director.

I knew you two would be super-sad about this. It's a damn shame, and once again it sounds like it was some dumbass doctor's fault.

That was a very eloquent tribute. I think he would have been moved and gratified to know that his work had touched someone so deeply.

It was also fascinating to hear how strong of a connection you feel to Tom's character in The Talented Mr. Ripley.

And you saw Cold Mountain with a cute guy too.
