Day 72 - Friday March 13th 2009
We've not watched any of our netflix or blockbuster discs this week.
We had Repo: the Genetic Opera from Blockbuster, and I was just about to return it in exchange for a game. After getting coated up and about to leave the house I reconsidered and convinced Sunny that we should give it ten minutes, if we weren't instantly enjoying it then it would be returned unwatched.
We loved it, it got watched twice over the weekend...
Kooky and silly without being comedy or trying to be 'funny'. It used (and revelled in) all of the ridiculous plot devices which make opera, or any of the good old melodramas throughout history, into the convoluted cooking of pots of villainy/deceit that they are.
