The Black Dahlia
I don't know whether it was me or the film, but one of us didn't understand the other. I think I figured out the plot, but I didn't find it even vaguely interesting, other than to blink in surprise at every vast leap in logic based upon the slightest piece of evidence. Very odd.

Hello!
Hey, thanks for coming! I'm Andrew, and this is where my headthinks come to breed. They often dance around humanism, photography and general wonderments, but there's dabblage aplenty.
Do feel free to email me - I get lonely:

Your hair looks swish, by the way - have you done something new?

Sorry I didn’t reply to your text last night. Was knee deep in computer cables (I was kneeling so its not too hard) transfering my computer to a P180 case
Didn’t eat until late because it took hours to sort the cables out given that I have a sound card and only two pci slots to choose from, both at the very bottom of the mobo. Very nice case, just has a very small section of total annoyance right above the PSU
Anyway, I thought that film looked sort of interesting but not great, otherwise I would have dropped everything. Glad I didn’t now. Confusing things in film format just don’t do it for me
