Better than FICTION!

Saw the film STRANGER THAN FICTION tonight. Although the reviews have been mixed, I thought the film was fantastic. I was a little skeptical going in, as self-reflexive art can be tedious and pretentious, but this was very well-written. The casting is great, and Will Ferrell continues to grow as an actor with a deep performance in this film. Dustin Hoffman gives an atypically understated performance. Definitely a film worth seeing, especially for people in the arts, who will see themselves in this film.

Also some nice subtle, subjective sound design. And one STAR TREK TOS sound effect!
