dark night...good night

rarely do i mention movies on my blog. but, after seeing 'the dark knight' last night, i had to. although, the movie is rather dark and not for kids, i would highly recommend it. i have a horrible habit of falling asleep in movies, basically once the lights are out so am i. last night we went to a 10:30pm showing and i stayed awake for the entire movie. now that speaks highly for a movie! i haven't seen a movie i liked this much since 'no country for old men' or 'there will be blood'...i must really like dark movies! just wait, in a few weeks i will have my daddy daughter date to see 'mama mia!' and from then on, all my posts will be dedicated to abba! back on track katie. talking about 'the dark knight' not abba.

i will say this...

i have a horrible horrible phobia of clowns (and mimes). yuck, creeps me out. to the point that i start to have a panic attack and cry uncontrollably. no kidding. the opening scene was really hard to watch. lots of clown masks. which are actually worse than just face paint for me. a few other scenes toed the line of katie wanting to cry, but i held it together.

wondering how i could stand to watch the movie with my horrible fear of clowns and mimes, and well, white face paint? the jokers make-up is always smeared and partially wiped off of his fore head. strangely, i felt better knowing that i could see his real face through the paint. just a little warning in case anyone else wanting to see it has my same fear. you will be ok. but, be aware that there are clowns...thankfully no circus music, or i would have run from the theater crying like a 3 year old.

katie highly recommends 'the dark knight'!
