Obsession

The last movie I watched before my little trip to the hospital was "Heavenly Creatures." It's about two girls in New Zealand who become close friends. Too close as it turns out. Their obsession with each other and the rich fantasy life they concoct leads to brutal murder. And it's a true story as well which I think adds a bit of "Yeesh" to it.

Anyway the main character of the film, played by Kate Winslet in her first film role has a bout of tuberculosis and features a shuddersome scene of her coughing blood. Soon after the film ended, I had my own bout with that which led to quite the scene of panic and then of course the trip to the hospital. Lucky for me it's just pneumonia.

My favourite scenes in this really good little flick were of the girls' fantasy life involving a made-up land of kings and queens and knights made of clay who protect the girls. Peter Jackson made a good little flick out of this I thought.

So today's pic is a screenshot from the movie and is my way of saying all I did today really was sleep. Yes, I am that boring.
