Half Nelson Was Good

Last night, Alex and I watched Half Nelson at my apartment. Like the title of the post suggests, I liked it. Ryan Gosling was pretty good, as usual (although I haven't seen Lars and the Real Girl, Tyner reccomends--so it must be good). It was kind of depressing, but that feeling my come from the ambient (almost eerie) soundtrack by Broken Social Scene. In any event, the movie was really well shot and had a good message. I give it high reccomendations. It even made me want to make some changes--like "get my life together" (apart from "do it big in oh-eight" the most uttered phrase of the year by far).
