Alice's Cup of Tea

This page is just a collage of things I'd recommend to anyone.


Movies

*Music from Another Room - Jude Law. Let me just say, oh yes - I want me one of them handsome British cuties. The movie is truly a beautiful thing as well. Very much worth checking out.

*High Fidelity - Jack Black and John Cusack. The man himself, Jack Black, makes the movie awesome. John Cusack delivers a grand performance as well, capturing the very essence of those of us who are dumped but don't want to be dumped but still hate the person for doing it even though we can't stop loving them. Yes, I think that's what I was trying to say.


Books

*Anna Karenina - Leo Tolstoy. Beautiful Russian romance. Full of scandal, love, cheating, lies, and in the end you feel that the ones who deserved happiness got just that. It's so lovely.

*Mother Night - Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. Oh my goodness. Spies all over the place. This book just upset me but in a way that made me think and although I was totally ticked off at the ending, I knew if it had ended another way I would have felt TOO good about the book and it just wasn't supposed to be that way. A lot of philosophical rantings.

*The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky. This book is so easy to relate to and I got a lot of self pity and self evaluation out during the day it took me to finish this book. My words could not do this book justice, you'll have to see for yourself.
