Entre les murs, football
Jun. 18th, 2010 08:16 pmFirst of all: I can feel weather changes in my jaw, where the metal plates are. That's just...strange.
Secondly: Yesterday, I went to see 'Entre les murs', a French film which won a golden thingie at Cannnes, with part of my French class at this French-German mini-film festival we have here in Karlsruhe. My classmates pretty much thought it sucked, while I (and my teacher) thought that it was a very interesting and emotionally challenging film. ( More about it under the cut. )
I'd recommend it, as long as you don't just want some light entertainment. Speaking of which, I could really go for some Live Free or Die Hard right now...
Finally, football:
- Match 1: Germany vs. Serbia. I only saw the last 20 minutes of this game because I had an appointment for a quick check-up at the hospital in Heidelberg (When we arranged it, we didn't know Germany was playing.). Amusingly, they called yesterday to ask if we couldn't come earlier, which wasn't possible, and when we got there, we only spent about 5 minutes in the hospital - normally we wait at least half an hour, but today there were literally only two other people waiting and we went right through. The doctor, who probably was in the entrance hall watching the game before we arrived (they had a screen up there), was called and when he arrived we spent maybe three minutes talking before we arranged the next appointment and went back out. We didn't even have to pay for the parking, that's how fast we were.
Anyway, when me and my Dad where back home, we caught the rest of the match but...well. What a disappointment. There were some decisions by the referee that I wasn't very happy with, especially near the end, but I don't really blame him for the outcome. *sigh*
- Match 2: USA vs. Slovenia. There are three reasons why I like the US national team. They are very nonsensical and shallow reasons.
1. I like that guy with the beard. I don't know why. I just like him.
2. That Donovan dude looks like a friend of mine. Said friend's father is from the US. This amuses me way too much.
3. Their jerseys are cool.
Aside from that, I actually thought they deserved to win and I don't understand why that goal didn't count. I don't think anybody but the referee understands that.
England is playing in 15 minutes - Let's see how that goes.
P.S.: An observation: I haven't heard that German football song by Sportfreunde Stiller once this year. What the hell? I really liked that one...
