Amazon.com recently emailed me some buying recommendations. They're Mary Renault's and Poppy Z. Brite's books. No mystery there 'coz my most recent purchases were 'The Persian Boy' and 'Drawing Blood'. But I wonder why they recommended 'The Half Blood Prince' to me as well. Nothing against HBP but I didn't buy that book online. Never even searched for any of the other JKR's books either. Hmmm ...

I'm going to watch 'Flight Plan' this evening. I hope it won't disappoint. So far the papers here have only good things to say about it. But then Jodie Foster's movies never disappoint. I love her kick-ass strong and smart characters.

On another note, my ante-natal bloodworks came back as good. Blood sugar normal, Hb level good and the HIV and Hepatitis B are negative. The last 2 never fail to make me nervous everytime.

I forgot to tell you, Peter Sarsgaard plays Roy in the version of Borderlines that goes on in my head. I know he doesn't fit with the physical description Vshendria gave at all, but the ages are right (sort of -- Peter is 10 years older than Lij) and he's got this sort of scary-sexy-indifferent thing going on. *shudders*

Boys Don't Cry is another very good, very disturbing movie he was in.

My Borderlines!Roy is Hugh Grant. I know, Hugh is too nice to play Roy but I cant get him out my head 'coz vshendria already said that Roy looks like Hugh.

How do you imagine Sasha? I imagine him as a younger Rupert Everett until vee said that her Sasha looks like Adrian Brody. I think Adrian would be brilliant as Sasha. Oh dear, how I wish someone is making a movie out of this fic.

I havent seen 'Boys Dont Cry' but I now you make me want to watch it. Will look for it the next time I go to the video store.

And another thing, doesn't Sarsgaard bear more than a fleeting resemblance to Keifer Sutherland?

Hmmm, I guess, but I've never paid much attention to Keifer Sutherland, so to me he just looks like Peter Sarsgaard (and Roy). I know V mentioned Hugh Grant's name a couple times within the fic, but I have trouble imagining him without a British accent and trouble imagining him being that cruel, so I'm sticking to my guy. :)

I hadn't figured out a good Sasha. I've only seen Adrian Brody in The Pianist so it's a little hard for me to think of him in such a different way, but I'll give it a try.

Boys Don't Cry is really good, but I'll warn you now it has some really horrific violence, stuff that even people who don't usually mind violence in movies might find hard to take. And knowing it really happened made it that much worse. I was really affected by it. Hillary Swank was amazing.
