Apr. 29th, 2006 05:30 pmAck end of year panic tests soon wah flail omg just be over!!!
Okay, woo, I just needed to get that out of my system. Technically, I've still got more than three weeks until graduation, but all of my AP tests are this coming week. After that everything is just gravy, but until then I am trying to alternate between studying and letting my brain rest (now would be one of those brain-resting moments).
I also finished watching The Pirate this morning. I once remarked to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
irelandforever how Gene Kelly inspires me with awe rather than lust. ...I take it all back! Even hamming it up as a pirate impostor with ridiculous costumes and an even more ridiculous moustache, he had me glued to the TV. According to IMBd, there is a scene from the movie that was cut and completely destroyed because Mayer thought it inappropriate and too risque for decent moviegoers. I am SO ANGRY because now I am intrigued and I really want to see it! Maybe this is just me being a pervy Gene Kelly fancier, haha, but I think if they stuck with the pirate/ravishing/longing tone through the whole movie it would have been a lot better. The first hour of the movie is chock full of humour with an undercurrent of sexuality and tension, and then after that it kind of drops off into pure silliness and fluff. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. It's still on my TiVo, so I think I'm going to go watch the "Niña" scene over again and giggle and sigh dreamily through the whole thing (the cigarette kiss! How awesome was that?!).
EDIT: How lame am I? I had to upload a Gene Kelly icon just to use for this post. And, okay, I lied about never finding him sexy before The Pirate, because the phone scene from Anchors Aweigh in my icon is an awful lot of sexiness squeezed into an awfully short scene.
