frozen

for as long as i can remember, i've had this problem. i love seeing movies when they're still new and in theaters, but i almost always end up reading the entire synopsis of a film before i get a chance to see it. it's a love/hate thing, i think. i didn't read up on the sixth sense, though, and i'm proud of that. somehow, it helps the story just as often as it hurts it. edge of darkness was a pretty intense film with a lot to take in, not just a single "good guy/bad guy" theme. reading up on the plot ahead of seeing it, i paid more attention to the characters i wanted to. kind of cool, kind of not. every now and again, i run across a film i want to see and can't find the plot for. wikipedia lets us all down sometimes, i guess. i've been searching for the plot of FROZEN for months now. it came out probably 3 months ago and the only spoilers i have found are regarding the special effects. lame. being an indie film with the shittiest distribution i've ever seen, i don't think there was a single theater in all of New England that played it. so 3 months go by and i'm still googling for spoilers, a synopsis, anything other than the same fucking trailer i've watched at least 20 times. i'm not sure how i got this far on the topic of movie spoilers but it begs the question...do i just hate surprises? maybe. even my girlfriend kind of just gave in, gave me my birthday (it's tomorrow) presents a few days ahead of the date. i'm probably reading too much into this . i think we're all just naturally curious. besides, if a story's really good, and i mean told well and in a manner which connects to you personally, you can know the ending and still get sucked in by the meat of it in the middle. which brings me back to what i was doing before typing this up. have. to. finish. this. fucking. book.
