It felt contrived, almost pretentious in its attempt at trying to fit all things hipster into a film. It felt like it was trying really really hard to show "real life" but really it just left me feeling really hopeless and made me hate hipsters beyond the loathing that i already had. maybe I had set my hopes too high, or I was expecting something really different. I think I just don't like Dave Eggers writing. For some, his work is fabulous. But for me it just feels contrived and like he is just writing for and directly at pretentious middle/upper class Hipsters.<br /><br />sad. i really wanted to like it.<br /><br />and i like alexi murdoch sometimes, but he doesn't even come CLOSE to Nick Drake. Nick is a genius and a beautiful and sadly tormented soul.<br /><br />Alexi is hip, similar to the movie. But Nick is truly moving and speaks on a different plane.Moorea Sealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05408742378172237326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7456348356291875543.post-91626532110190900342009-06-28T02:33:28.686-04:002009-06-28T02:33:28.686-04:00is it out yet? the movie that is. really wanna go ...is it out yet? the movie that is. really wanna go see it.<br /><br />i think murdock is just trying to be like nick. nick is better.wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02664534318193905687noreply@blogger.com
