Anyway, I really missed being here, and so I just wanted to say a quick hi *waves*, and thatI'm still a Keanu fan:) And I just wanted to say hi to all of you here, and to thank Aanakin for such a wonderful site. Don't know when I'm gonna show up next time. But I sure will check it out every now and then. Hope everyone is having a great time and all.

Overall I'd say the directing on the movie was just ok. The message of the movie is pretty sad. And unfortunately it is true. I had to do some stuff for a psychology class once. And there are tons and tons of pages on the web, where parents are telling about their kids commiting suicide, and all kinds of groups that try to prevent suicide.

As for Keanu's acting I thought it was good. The best part was when he almost killed David's little brother while driving drunk, and then broke down to tears while hugging David's dad. I thought he did great. There was real emotion there. It was believable and all.

So, thanks for putting up the link. My next mission is to watch the private lives of pippa lee. Don't know when I'm gonna get a chance to do that though. As I don't like watching Keanu movies in a rush. So probably next weekend at best:)

I also heard that Van Sant has written some book, where the characters are implied to correspond to Keanu and River. Not Scottie and Mike, but Keanu and River. I haven't seen it myself, but people on some forums were saying that it's a really, really weird and in some ways dirty book.

So, I thought this is where it started. And then the whole gay thing after I think MOPI just added on to it. I must say the character in MOPI is kind of strange. I like some parts of it. And love Keanu and River on that motorcycle. But the whole movie and the way it was written is a little weird for my taste. I think Keanu should've been more careful in selecting his roles.
