A movie

I went to a movie called El Método (The Method) this afternoon. It was in Spanish, made by an Argentine but most of the cast was from Spain. I think I understood 2/3 or more of the dialog, which is pretty good for me. Wouldn't you know it, though, that the Argentina character was the most difficult to understand. I guess I'm still not quite used to the accent.

The movie was pretty good, especially considering I picked it mostly at random. It's the kind of movie I probably would have chosen to see -- I guess I'd call it a drama and psychological thriller. The first half reminded me of Twelve Angry Men, if any of you have seen that.

The subway near my house wasn't running this morning. Apparently that happens sometimes, usually due to a strike as I understand it. I ended up taking a taxi instead after waiting for 20 minutes with everyone else. Tomorrow or Thursday I should attempt taking the bus to my Spanish class. It probably isn't any faster than the subway, but I won't need to change buses as I do with the subway.
