“I knew what he was doing. The dead do not always stay put. I once did an exhumation in which Grandpa was three plots over from the one in which he was supposed to have been buried. Another in which the deceased lay in a plot containing two stacks of three. Instead of bottom left, as shown in the records, our subject was second casket from the top right. First rule in a disinterment: Make sure you’ve got the right guy. Knowing the vague nature of old cemetery records, I assumed Burkhead was checking photos or brief verbal descriptions against observable details. Casket style, decorative hardware, handle design. Given the obvious age of the coffins, I doubted he’d be lucky enough to have manufacturers’ tags or serial numbers.”

Three things about this video…

It’s an important message.

It’s visually beautiful.

The other night I was asked what my favorite movies were… My first response was Austin Powers and I think my companion nearly keeled over and died to think that was the my number one movie of all time.

In my defense that film has some serious family history so it was the first thing that popped into my head and really has to be included on my short list.

So after giving it some thought, I’ve compiled a more complete selection of my favorite films:

This film was released and it’s soundtrack was our sole playlist when my family moved to Pennsylvania and renovated our home there. I hosted Austin Powers style parties in our circa 1960 basement lounge which included a built in bar, rainbow colored floor tiles, and the pièce de résistance was the built in seating banquette complete with mirror ball glass around the basement support beams.

Austin Powers

This film is my litmus test. As an anthropology major I am enthralled at the look at human culture all over the world. I watch it quite regularly, and I use it to gauge a person’s personality, you don’t have to ‘get it’ or even like it, but I’m interested to hear the reactions to it.

Baraka

One of the only war films I can watch. I have developed anxiety attacks witnessing violence in movies so I’m hard pressed to sit though any battle scenes, but this game of cat and mouse between two snipers is so thrilling I can’t help but love it. Plus there’s a love story. Blech. I’m such. a. girl.

Enemy at the Gates

This movie inspired many afternoons of adventure seeking as a kid and made me wish I could invent gadgets like Data. I may or may not wear a leather bracelet as an adult that says ‘Goonies never say die’.

The Goonies

Some of my guilty pleasure films include girly love stories, hilarious comedies, and my favorite genre of action films with car chase scenes…

Return to Me

The Transporter 1, 2 & 3

All of Wes Anderson’s films (my favorite being The Life Aquatic)

It’s a quirky collection of movies, but I think that suits me just fine…

I love how our western facing mountains stay illuminated in the evening, the valleys shift to shades of grey and blue and the hillsides burst into colors of pink and tangerine as the sun sets…

That is why I love the Inland Empire.
