Thought I'd drop a few quick thoughts while I have a minute between film screenings:
* Toronto is the cleanest big city I've ever been to. It's also one of the most multicultural.
• The Coen brothers’ new one, Burn After Reading, which I saw this morning, reverts back to the screwball leanings of their post-Fargo/pre-No Country for Old Men period. That’s not a good thing.
• There seems to be far fewer high-profile American offerings than usual. Burn After Reading is one of the exceptions. Even the customs dude at the Toronto International Airport asked me about it: “Hey, you gonna see the Clooney film?”
• Sarah Palin’s name has come up in nearly every extended conversation, including this tidbit from a French friend: “Tracy Flick (Reese Witherspoon’s character in Election) has come a long way.”
• Caught Waltz with Bashir, Ari Folman’s animated documentary about his own journey to recover lost memories as a soldier in the early-’80s war between Israeli and Lebanon. Powerful, fully realized stuff. Sony Classics, which picked it up after Cannes, could have it out in American art houses by year’s end.
• Tim Robbins is one tall dude.
• Wong Kar Wai’s Ashes of Time Redux is just as elusive his original version. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing: Yo-Yo Ma’s new score, lush and melancholy, adds emotional depth. FYI: I interview Wong on Sunday; anyone got a question they want asked?
Well, gotta go — a screening of Kelly Reichert’s follow-up to Old Joy is calling, as is my sixth cup of coffee.

a 5k one, you have been doing exactly the same thing.

Is there anyone who hasn't suffered for the secret love? We always think that love is very heavy, heavy and could be the heaviest thing in the world. But one day, when you look back, you suddenly realize that it's always light, light. We all thought love was very deep, but in fact it's very thin. The deepest and heaviest love must grow up with the time.
