About This Blog

Dare to Dissemble is my little online ranting place, where I air my thoughts about the ridiculous state of affairs at the University of Alberta--a formerly strong public institution with tons of potential being driven into the ground by inept governance and irresponsible government funding policies. Comments are welcome, but not expected. Like most blogs on the internet, this one languishes in obscurity and is read for the most part by its proprietor.

Movie Friday: Cloud Atlas

Not a lot to talk about this week, despite the start of classes.  So, let's turn to an upcoming film that I am very excited about, Cloud Atlas:



This movie, which premiers at TIFF, is based on the acclaimed book by David Mitchell, which I am currently reading.  It's interesting to note that he considered it unfilmable when he finished it, but he, too, is very excited about this adaptation.

Finally, I am interested to see what the Wachowskis can come up with.  Their output has been sporadic since V for Vendetta, consisting mainly of the inexplicable Speed Racer.  But based on the trailer, I think this has a lot of potential.
