The Sort of Town I Want To End Up In

January 16, 2003

I just finished watching the movie “Beautiful Girls” with Timothy Hutton and Uma Thurman. The movie was pretty good and all, a good story line, good characters…but, the best part, absolutely worth mentioning on this weblog, was the setting.

A little, sleepy Minnesota town. Frozen lake nearby, snowbanks, trucks with plows raised, frumpy coats with giant hoods, sorels, below zero air, etc.

That is exactly, goddamn exactly, the sort of town I want to end up in. Done.
