Buffy & Spike – LoveGame – Adults Only?
I don’t know what this says about me, but I enjoyed the music, I enjoyed the imagery, I just enjoyed it! But it’s kinda hot, so be sure to keep your toddlers away from this, as well as your monks, your priests, your puritans, your uptight relatives, your sexually repressed neighbors… well, you get the pic.
Veronika Decides to Die (2009)
Paulo Coelho’s parents committed him to mental hospitals three times when he was a young man, because he had the ambition to be an artist — a very unacceptable profession in Brazil at the time. He vowed he would one day write about those experiences, and he made good on that promise.
Now — or very soon at least — comes the movie.
And, as many already know, Sarah Michelle Gellar will be starring in it! — a new movie called Veronika Decides to Die, based on the best-selling book by Paulo Coelho of the same name. It’s about a young woman who seems to have it all, or at least all the trappings of the good life as our culture generally defines it, i.e., youth, beauty, boyfriends, a loving family, gainful employment, a great future, etc. Even so, she’s not very happy, and one winter morning she decides to end her life, taking an overdose of sleeping pills.
Her suicide attempt fails, but when she wakes up some time later in a psychiatric hospital, she is told her heart is irreparably damaged and she has only a few days left to live. This sparks a journey of the psyche in which she comes to question her assumptions about life and existence, and realizes she has allowed her life to be ruled by the constraints and expectations of social convention. As one of the book’s primary themes is that every moment of life is precious and can be special and purposeful if only we are simply aware enough to see it, the movie holds the promise of being inspirational — and perhaps even unforgettable — especially with Sarah Michelle Gellar in the lead role.
Also starring David Thewlis as Dr. Blake (an ambitious psychiatrist with a penchant for alternative methods) the film’s release is expected sometime in or around November.
It may not be Buffy, but I expect it will be very worthwhile.

Goodbye To You (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
A song by Michelle Branch that appears in “Tabula Rasa” (a Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode # 8, season 6). A very funny episode, but the end is smashing – Willow & Tara splitting up, Giles heading back to England, Buffy rejecting Spike *again* //but smooching with him later//… and all these big thingies happen while this adorable and oh-so-fitting song is playing… Lookie-look!
