I've still been thinking about Closer for a while now, mostly because it left me so odd about it after watching it.

I'd say I liked it a lot, and it was a pretty good drama.

Especially as it was adapted from a play, but doesn't feel to "stagey" in dialog, like some adaptations do. The acting was quite good, even with Jude Law, who I find myself almost entirely underwhelmed by now that I think back to all the things I've seen him in. I think that I'll now just about see Clive Owen in anything he's in, and I even liked Julia Roberts for a change. Natalie Portman reminds us the the Star Wars movies have not drained all acting talent out of her permanently, and was more fascinating to listen to than to even see her skin (if you can believe that).

I also think that while some of the language felt a bit forced for a shock value in the story, the emotions and feelings behind it were pretty realistic mostly.

Most fascinating, though, is what it makes me thing about myself, and my relationships.

What do I want? How valuable is truth? How far would you go for love? Do I really know what love is?

I keep thinking I know the answers, but for some reason, this movie makes me think I don't. Interesting.
