Until the Legs Have Swung (103,024 words, most of them angsty) — an ode to toxic dynamics, questionable choices, and my inability to write anything resembling emotional stability

Delivery!

Nightingale: now make sure you are the utmost careful while handling the samples lest anything happen.

Julius turned turned to Nightingale a smile forming in his face

Julius: don't worry I'm always careful.

As he finished his sentence Nightingale turned to him

Nightingale: and yet you always somehow get severely wounded.... maybe I should go instead.

She then began to stand up but was quickly sat back down by Julius

Julius: no no no, you promised me that you would relax today, and I intend to make sure your able to.

Nightingale sighed looking at him

Nightingale: then let me ask you two things.

Julius: anything you want.

Nightingale: firstly only about two people signed up to test the vick'xxx ultra, why do you have ten samples?

Julius froze as he realized that she noticed

Julius: well...I didn't want to leave anyone out so I thought I works grab some extra samples and see if anyone wanted some, artist case scenario if they don't I'll just give the extras to the people that do.

Nightingale kept staring at Julius trying to see if he was lying, when she felt like he was telling the truth she sighed

Nightingale: ok then, secondly what are you wearing?

As she finished her sentence she gestured to Julius who looked down to the old fashioned diving suit he was wearing the only thing he had yet to put on was the helmet

Julius: we were out of hazmat suits so I thought this would work just as well.

She sighed as she got up and caressed his face

Nightingale: I'll give you points for creativity but I'm still going to worry.

As the words left her mouth Julius kissed her softly

Julius: I know and I'm sorry that I can't do anything but my best to help eleviate your worry.

As he finished his sentence Nightingale began to bite his neck softly at first but as time passed she began to apply more and more pressure, when she was finished she looked at him

Nightingale: then it will have to do.

He smiled at her and kissed her neck leaving a kiss mark as they finished their cuddling he walked over to the helmet and put it on

Julius: there! Now how do I look?

He turned to her and she just gave him a deadpan stare

Nightingale: you look like one of the villains from that cartoon you showed the children.

Julius: which one?

Nightingale: the one with the teens and the talking dog.

As Julius turned to the mirror to she what she meant his arms dropped to his side like he realized something

Julius: oh my God your right.

She Chuckled as she hugged him from behind, as she let go she waved as he began to collect the samples and head out

Nightingale: be careful and I love you

Julius:I will and I love you too!

pieces of you -- masterlist

summary → there’s something heartbreaking about the way love ends, with pieces of another person left for us to rediscover long after everything’s passed. oh, well. maybe in another lifetime...

or: your love story with each member of seventeen told through music.

*links will be added as the parts are posted!

seungcheol → forever//over, eden ↳ “the summer passed, and we grew up... maybe in another dream, this would never end.”

jeonghan → crash my car, coin ↳ “i love the way you’re breaking my heart, and i can’t stand to see you leaving lonely.”

joshua → more, the greeting committee ↳ “you’re making me love you more than all of the days before. know i love you more.”

junhui → used to this, camila cabello ↳ “i say your name, just listen... doesn’t it sound different? i’ve known you forever, now i know you better - let’s just get carried away.”

soonyoung → wishlist, tomorrow by together ↳ “my heart overflows again... i might have to confess - i like you.”

Movies I watched this week #58

       I finally saw the critically acclaimed Paddington 2. Having not seeing the first one, I did not expect it to be so well crafted and so adorably-wholesome. A marvelous film! 10/10.

🍿        

3 More romances directed by Wong Kar-wai:

🎦🎦🎦 Love and memory hurt in the visually stunning 2046, his kind of a time-travel Sci-fi sequel to ‘In the Mood for Love’ (and ‘Days of Being Wild’ which I haven't seen yet). Tony Leung is trying to recapture his past melancholic romance, and so does Wong Kar-wai here. And they get to sleep with Hong Kong’s most beatific actresses, Maggie Cheung, Gong Li, Faye Wong, Zhang Ziyi and Dong Jie. (Photos Above). 7+/10.

🎦🎦🎦 My blueberry Nights, his first feature in English, is an ordinary light romantic story about letting go of unrequited love. It recycles the usual Broken Heart themes from early Kar-wai movies, and even reuses ‘Yumeji's Theme’ from ‘In the mood for love’ on the soundtrack. With Norah Jones as the main character. 3/10.

🎦🎦🎦 “... If there’s an extra ticket, would you go with me?...”

So I "had to” watch In the Mood for Love again. Shot as if behind bars - in a prison of their doomed love, with the cinema most beautiful lovers. Every time I see stunning Maggie Cheung in her exquisite Qipao dresses (Cheongsam), I just start to cry. And Wong Kar-wai’s cinematic restrain in not showing their spouses even once... 10/10.

🍿        

Book Week, an Australian black comedy about an arrogant one-book author who must teach high school literature while working on his second novel. The problem with the film is that it’s very hard to like a bitter asshole like Nick Cutler, because he’s an unpleasant, sarcastic, egoistical narcissist, who hates teaching and has no respect to anybody around him. 2/10

🍿      

2 More Steven Soderbergh:

🎦🎦🎦 (Surprised, first watch:) Full Frontal, Soderbergh's low-budget ‘Day for Night’  homage. With David Fincher as the director, and Terence Stamp in a ‘Limey’ cameo. Mostly shot in grainy digital video camera, it’s a flawed Inside Hollywood story which in retrospective should have a critical renaissance. While I can see why this experimental film-within-a-film was panned by professional critics at the time, I can’t understand why it didn’t get a reevaluation after Harvey Weinstein was publicly exposed. Saw it twice. 

My Full Frontal appreciation post @ r/truefilm. 8/10.

🎦🎦🎦 Kimi, his latest formulaic Covid-19 neo-tech-thriller about invasions of privacy. A light combination of Hitchcock's ‘Rear Window’, De Palma’s ‘Blow Out’ and every other corporate cover-up mystery ever since. The plot is centered on a young, agoraphobic hacker who works from home on a Siri/Alexa-type device, and who has to fight, alone, the evil corporation that ‘will restore to any means’ to stop her. Obviously, Soderbergh couldn’t get Apple Studios or Amazon Studios to finance it (d'oh!), so he had HBO produces it instead. With Derek DelGaudio as a predictable villain.

🍿      

I wanted to watch some movies about Class Wars, but the only one I could find was Harlan County, USA. It’s a terribly depressing story of the 1973 coal miners strike in Eastern Kentucky. Depressing because it showed the horrifying conditions of the exploited workers, living in squalor and poverty in shacks without running water, working in inhuman conditions underground. And because I know that this was one of the last few struggles where the Union somehow “won”. 7 years later, Reagan was elected and the era of the "American Socialism” was over.

Also, it features Florence Reece, the old union organizer who composed Pete Seeger’s ‘Which side are you on’!

Duke Power, which fought the workers tooth and nail, is still a 3 billion plus company today.

🍿         

Montgomery Clift X 2:

🎦🎦🎦 John Huston’s The Misfits was the last film for both Clark Gable and for Marilyn Monroe. He died 10 days after the end of the shooting, and she killed herself the next year. Her doomed beauty in the movie was so overwhelming that all the male characters couldn’t help but being transformed as they saw her. But what else was she beside a sad and beautiful object of desire? Like the wild mustangs that they trapped and killed, she was a victim of their libidos and hopeless masculinity. 8/10.

🎦🎦🎦 From Here to Eternity, a soldier melodrama of the weeks before the attack on Pearl Harbor, with Burt Lancaster, Deborah Kerr, and young Jack Warden. Rumors had it that Frank Sinatra got a role in the film by means of his alleged Mafia connections, which was the basis for the Johnny Fontane subplot in The Godfather.

“...Nobody ever lies about being lonely ...”

🍿          

Modesty Blaise, Joseph Losey’s 1966 female James Bond “parody" with Monica Vitti, blue-eyed Terence Stamp and flaming Dirk Bogarde. It’s one of the strangest film I’ve seen and I had a hard time following its confusing internal logic. Campy design, pop-art editing and avant-garde mystery confounded me. 2/10

🍿        

Marina Abramović: The Artist is Present, a HBO documentary about the Serbian performance artist, and specifically about her major 2010 MOMA retrospective, when in the course of three months she sat silent & motionless for 736 hours in front of 1,545 individuals. A very moving piece about connection, loneliness and our bodies - 9/10.

(This is me at her 2019 exhibition @ Tel Aviv Museum).

🍿        

Elia Kazan’s last film, The Last Tycoon, adapted from of F. Scott Fitzgerald's last unfinished novel. Robert De Nero is a Golden Age Hollywood producer, based on “Boy Wonder” Irving Thalberg. It features Tony Curtis, Robert Mitchum, Jeanne Moreau, Donald Pleasence, Ray Milland, Theresa Russell (in her debut role),Seymour Cassel (as the Seal trainer), Anjelica Huston and others. This is the only movie that De Niro and Jack Nicholson appeared in together. 5/10

🍿        

First watch: Dazed and confused, Richard Linklater’s still-rocking 'American Graffiti’ high school comedy. The youngest Ben Affleck on film I ever saw. Also a natural Matthew McConaughey. The sound-edit of the opening ‘Sweet emotion’ scene (An orange GTO pulling into the high school parking lot in slow motion) knocked me off my feet - It was a bold announcement: Here is a movie by a new guy with his own voice!

..."alright, alright, alright... 7/10

🍿        

A Hero, Asghar Farhadi latest Grand Prix winner. An ambiguous moral tale about a meek man, imprisoned for defaulting on a loan, who is getting deeper into a convoluted deceit. Nuanced realism in an Iranian society that looks bureaucratically unpleasant, conservative and oppressing. 8/10.

🍿        

2 Mike Judge comedies:

🎦🎦🎦 “...I'm gonna have to ask you to come in on Saturday...“

Every time I watch Office Space, I am amazed again at how perfect this feel-good, low-key cult satire is, and how well it came to define all garbage office serfs in corporate America. Mike Judge himself played “Stan”, the manager at Chotchkie's. 10/10.

Milton, his original animation that was the basis for the story.

When the real Michael Bolton screen tested for 'Office Space'...

🎦🎦🎦 In Extract Jason Bateman is a successful businessman with a passionless marriage. Disappointingly, it’s a mild, dumb middle class sitcom set-up with few laughs. 3/10

“Are you familiar with Gibson humbucking pickups at all, or... “

🍿          

Nadia, Butterfly is a sport drama about a young Olympic swimmer who retires from competition after winning the bronze medal for Canada at the 2020 Tokyo Games. It is based on the director own experiences as a competitive swimmer, and features real non-professional athletes in dramatic roles - unfortunately, not too expressively. 3/10

🍿          

2 Silent Era shorts:

🎦🎦🎦 Stuntman Buster Keaton in The Goat from 1921 (Colorized), a lovely mistaken identity two-reeler comedy. (But why was it called ‘The Goat’?)

🎦🎦🎦 A 1903 short, the first filmed version of Alice in Wonderland. Made just 37 years after Lewis Carroll wrote his novel and eight years after the birth of cinema, the adaptation was directed by Cecil Hepworth and Percy Stow, and was based on Sir John Tenniel's original illustrations.

🍿        

Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines or How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 hours 11 minutes, a very British 1965 production with an ensemble cast that includes Benny Hill, Terry-Thomas, Red Skelton and “all star cast”. A "Comedy” with exactly “0″ laughs. The only memorable thing about the 2:18 minute streaming was the “Intermission” in the middle, which played orchestral music over a dark screen for about 5 minutes. 1/10.

🍿          

Craig Ferguson: I'm Here to Help, a 2013 stand up show. I like his humor, even when he screams for 90 minutes. His jokes against Nazis are a bit outdated: He said that Nazis are the only target that you can legitimately make fun of, and nobody will protest it, because no Nazis will come up and admit that they are. Good One, Craig!
