Our personal indie film fest

compiled of An Education and Factory Girl.  Both fairly decent movies and I enjoyed them...equally?  I now find Andy Warhol to be a very fascinating character and would like to find out more about him.  He's funny, and really queer seeming.  He was probably bi.  You can't just have a voice like that and not have a remote attraction towards the same sex.  I don't know what lesbians sound like, but I imagine that they are highly terrifying.  But he seems awesome and I want to watch more of his short films.  Intriguing.  My girl Gaga uses part of his clips in her opening for the Monster Ball Tour which I am due for attending...if my parents would let me.  Though it'd actually be quite easy to fake it but it's so far in advanced that it's rough.  But prices are so cheap right now! So I must lunge.  But anyways, An Education, nominated for approximately one thousand Oscars, was pretty good.  I started this post the day I watched it and I wish I finished it then so that things were fresher in my memory.  An Education had wonderful costumes and soundtrack/score, I love...not sure what the style would be called, but I guess retro-jazzy but modern music with lots of brass..basically something rihgt out of Mark Ronson.  and England.  Amy Winehouse one would think?  No, but on the right track.  Duffy! Who had that one hit song a few years back that I quite enjoyed.  I have it in my head but not the title.  I really like that British rockers are taking America by storm, if not a little slowly.  Not completely mainstream, but if you watch MTV (which many do), very popular there. Aha! Mercy. That's it.  Jump for some music from An Education and how to buy what I just told about.  I'm still at a loss on the genre.  If you know, anonymous ghost person, feel free to tell me.  Doo-wop?
