a man's gotta do...

So I went to watch a movie tonight; 'Body of Lies' with Leonardo di Caprio and Russell Crowe. Pretty good film all around, and it had everything a guy could want: a nice (clean) love interest, and close-up shots of di Caprio having his fingers broken with a hammer... ok, maybe not the first one. The plot revolves around di Caprio, a CIA agent working in Irag initially, and then in Jordan, to spy and gather intelligence on a terrorist organisation. It's that genre of film designed to make you think this thought: while you're siting at a sidewalk cafe, sipping a latte and enjoyig the sunshine, someone out there is doing the dirty work to keep our country safe, so don't take the moral high ground and opine about how horrible the CIA is. I would tell you more, but then I'd be spoiling the film for those who will see it in about 3 months :-) I stepped out of the cinema, into the temple of Western consumerism - Times Square. Don't you just love juxstaposition??
