Sordide Sentimental
Last night, I saw that movie, which is Ben Stiller's first one.
Trailer : http://www.evtv1.com/player.aspx?itemnum=8632
A film about four friends having graduated and discovering the hard reality of adult life, mostly focusing on their love and job concerns. A fine and funny depiction of what is called Generation X. Winona Ryder is as a good actress as usual but being a girl (:D), I was particularly seduced by Ethan Hawkes' character. You know, he plays the brilliant and sexy guy who left his philosophy studies while he was to finish them and then lives his life as he likes, answering to criticisms with cynical and witty formulas that only he knows how to make. One day, he's fired of the kiosk he was working in because he's caught stealing a Snickers chocolate bar and he justifies himself to his friends by pretending the Establishement owed him a Snickers... great ! :D
Now I'm waiting for Ben to do the same with Generation Y (I've checked, that exists, it refers to my own generation) and then with Generation Z (I've checked, that exists...my new existential question is : what will they name the next one ?).
Good without being the film of the century. I've actually created a thread because I got hooked by one of the soudtrack's songs and wonder if anybody can help me to identify it. It 's the song you can hear at the end of the trailer. I've found a video of the whole scene :
