About That Hershlag Girl

Meaghan

As the chapter 2010 page's are thinning in the book of life, I decided I better put in my much revered 2 cents in about what was apparently the biggest deal of the year BLACK SWAN before 2011 rolls around/ third season of Jersey Shore and it becomes painfully irrelevant...well until prego Hershlag wins everything. Well that sentence would win for worst run on sentence and this sentence would win for worst sentence fragment.So you are most likely confused of what the hell Hershlag is...well bozo that is Nat. Port's real last name. Whoa, right? Why would one opt for Portman? I find Hershlag an utmost elegant and catchy surname. This whole blog thus far has been an entire sidetrack, and I apologize for that. SO. I love Natalie Portman...alot. I wish I was Natalie Portman like you have no idea. Actually one time my friend told me that for a split second I looked just like Hershlag, and he and I both decided that was perhaps the greatest compliment ever given and received.Anyways...what I thought about that movie. So my love for Natalie Portman has hopefully become evident thus far (of course im choosing to forget that movie with that Braff guy...gross..more like Barff...Zach Barff) I had high expectations for this film, simply because its Natalie Portman+feathers+ballet. I even went to the theatre donning a feather headpiece. What did I think about the movie? Well...she breathed alot...it seemed to me like this supposed 'best performance' was just a string of scenes composed of near-hyperventilation and just looking scared ALL THE TIME. well...she thought she was turning into a swan or whatever and that would be pretty scary. I thought her performance was good of course, and I don't think anyone could have done a better job I suppose...I just don't get why people are making this big of a deal about her now. Reflecting on it now I don't think the Black Swan is an unenjoyable film to watch, but now I realize more and more how well it was done. And chalk full of metaphor and you know I probably love metaphors more than I love Natalie Portman. Metaphors > Natalie Portman So this is what I think if none that made sense...I love Nat. Port. I did not love her in the Black Swan because I did not love the Black Swan but I realize that it was really well done. the end. nope. RODARTE! only part of the film that did not lead me to a near panic attack, and if i did panic it was because of the fabulousness..and a total understanding that my life thus far has been worthless because im not a ballerina and i can never wear those costumes.


Would I be the worst in saying that although Hershlag makes a beaut of a ballerina, i prefer her as the bollywood-dancing Princess Carmensita? WATCH&LISTEN
Devendra Banhart- Carmensita

As well I would like to mention if anyone didn't listen to the Joel Plaskett song that Becky posted in the previous blog..then do it. It is the song that would play in the montage of your life..or your youth...well it would play in mine anyways and if you do not feel the same way then when you listen to it you can think...ya Meaghan really relates to this song and you can know me better as a person. AIGHT?

ALSO. we will soon be re-vamping our blog to meet our chic and rad tastes..hopefully that is your taste too. chic and rad should always be used in the same sentence, and should be used to describe everything



GOODNIGHT AND GOODLUCK.
