A Review of SARAH JESSICA PARKER

Sarah Jessica Parker. A.K.A footface. I feel bad saying that, but Family Guy pointed that out once and it's undeniably true. I do not like Sarah Jessica Parker overly much. Her movies suck. I may be a bit biased, because I hate the Sex and the City T.V. shows and movies, but they really are boring. I don't find that she is a good actress, especially in Failure to Launch. I was actually angry after watching that movie. I didn't know why I was angry, but I was. Anyways, now that I've gotten my personal opinion out of the way, I will tell you some background facts on SJP.

She was born on March 25, 1965, making her a year older than my mother. She's originally from Nelsonville, Ohio, but her dance career prompted her family to move to New Jersey. She was cast in "The Sound of Music" and landed the lead part in the Broadway show of "Annie". After this play, she attended Dwight Morrow high school, but continued to act.

Also, Sarah Jessica Parker is a big Woody Allen fan. Her dreams came true when she was able to star opposite him in The Sunshine Boys in 1995.

Sarah Jessica Parker is married to Matthew Broderick. You may remember him from such films as Ferris Beuller's Day Off or The Cable Guy. I like Matthew Broderick so much more than his wife. Maybe it's just because he has endeared himself to the world through his character Ferris Beuller, or maybe it's because he's good looking. He's a much more capable actor than his wife, and I would rather see him in the next Sex and the City movie than her. But anyways, it's not my place to judge other human beings.

A Review of THE KID starring Charlie Chaplin

I found THE KID to be mildly amusing. I really enjoy silent films because it prevents annoying questions such as "What did he say?" from occurring. So, as a side note, next time you and that friend that asks a billion questions (yes, we all have a friend like that) watch a movie, just throw in a silent film and let the silence begin.
Anyways, back to THE KID, this 1921 film was pretty good as far as 1921 films go. In this hectic world we live in, it is rare that you don't have to listen to someone nagging the frick out of you or talking about that cute FedEx guy, blah blah blah, right? So watching a nice simple movie where the only sound is suspenseful music was a nice escape. The best parts are, of course, the scenes where someone trips or gets beaten by a woman with a parasol, because their carefully practiced facial expressions are priceless. I also enjoyed the fact that they stuffed a flat pillow down a guy's shirt to fill him out to make him look more built.
I don't have much criticism for this movie. Having been born MANY years after silent films went out of style, I am not familiar with the criteria that a silent movie should meet. Therefore I am an unfit judge. So I will just talk about things I liked about it.
I really liked that everyone wore makeup. I think that if silent films were alive and thriving today, Maybelline and CoverGirl would make a heck of a lot of coin on their Blackest Black eyeliners.
Oh wait, there is one thing that I am confused about. Near the end, there is a dream scene that is pretty random. Whatever, not my place to judge it though.
