Check IT #6

Music:
Here are the top 5 songs for April:
1. At Least I'm Not As Sad (As I Used to Be) // fun.
2. Can You Tell? // Ra Ra Riot
3. There Is a Light That Never Goes Out // The Smiths
4. Sleepyhead // Passion Pit
5. No One Does It Like You // Department of Eagles

Movies:
The Royal Tenembaums
Due to my recent realization that Gweneth Paltrow is one of my favorite actresses, I've decided to make The Royal Tenembaums the movie of the month. Filled with great shots, an amazing screenplay, and a stacked cast, this movie should for sure be put on your Netflix.



Final Note:
Check out this website, you will NOT be disappointed.

Movies:
(500) Days of Summer
Though I haven't yet seen this film, I am going to the West Coast premier this Thursday at the Newport Beach Film Festival. This is Zooey Deschanel's newest movie, and by the looks of it, could be my favorite one. Well that is about all I can say without actually seeing the movie, but just watch the trailer, it will change your life.



Television
Dead Like Me

Dead Like Me is an incredible show I have stumbled upon. It is a post-modern view of the after life and Grimreapers. The story is of George (short for Georgia), an 18 year old girl who dies at the hands of a Russian toilet seat falling from space. She is then taken into the fold of new age Grimreapers. The show is complicated to explain but is worth watching. The show is canceled as of 2004, but you can sure still rent or buy it. Also, their is a movie of it entitled Dead Like Me: Life After Death watch it.
