Notes on a Conversation about Billy Elliot
Spring [1] has been trying to get me to watch Billy Elliot [2] since we
rented several days ago. My relunctance to watch it has a bit to do with my
relunctance to see many movies (I do have to be forced to watch certain types
of films and often times I end up liking the film but I digress) but it has
more to do with the subject matter—someone who is hiding what they are doing
from other people and the inevitable Embarrasing Scenes that I find way to
painful to watch.
“But it's got a riot in it,” said Spring.
“Yea … ”
“It's got kicking down of door,” she replied.
“Woot!” [3]
“It's got judicious use of sledgehammers in it,” said Spring.
“Are you guys talking about Office Space? [4]” asked Rob. [5]
