I saw Billy Eliot last night and I have to tell you what a wonderful movie it is. It's about this boy growing up in a poor blue collar mining town who wanted to be ballet dancer. The kid who played Billy was awesome; it was the best performance I have ever seen from a young actor, and one of the best performances I have ever seen from anyone. It really wasn't his acting that made the performance; it was his dancing. I am no ballet expert, but when he danced in the movie for various reasons you could feel what he was feeling. Some of the dancing scenes were some of the most joyous and wonderful things I have ever seen in a movie. It was just indescribable.
There was also a subplot about his friend who turns out to be gay, has a crush on him, and begins to reveal it when he finds out Billy is doing ballet. He thinks that since Billy like ballet, he must be gay as well (which is untrue). The way the film deals with it is really touching....you have to see it for yourself.
Anyway spring break has been ok, I haven't been nearly as productive as I wanted to be. Being lazy is just too easy.
