Up in the Air. I’m actually kind of excited to be going to this movie tomorrow. Mostly because I need a break (kind of early in the semester to be saying that isn’t it?) and I think a good movie is just what I need. I saw a commercial a while ago about “Up in the Air” and I thought it looked interesting. It’s been nominated for 6 Golden Globes, so it has to be good, plus it has George Clooney in it, who has never stopped being attractive, even as he gets older. His character Ryan Bringham travels around the country as a corporate downsizing expert, which is relevant to the recession we’re in. His job is to fire people all over the country. Vera Farmiga plays a younger version of George except she finds a way to fire people via video conference calls, effectively rendering Clooney’s job useless and destroying his entire way of life. He takes her on one of his cross country firing trip and both realize the pain and suffering they cause. I’m looking forward to seeing this movie tomorrow afternoon.
