Be Happy Now

Futuristically-speaking, No Country's Josh Brolin has told L.A. Times Magazine's Ginny Chien that he'll always "be happy whether I'm doing dinner theater in Phoenix or some great movie with Michael Mann. I've always been, and I always will be. As much as I appreciate the moment, I know the moment will change." And then change back again. There's no "good" or "bad" side of the coin -- there is only the momentous import of the coin's particular constitution. Happy and sad, flush and poor, up and down are fool's illusions.

good philosophy, but I'm kind of rooting for more Michael Mann than dinner theater from him.

Sounds like he's been reading lots of Cormac McCarthy. But seriously, the more I see of Josh Brolin the more I like him, I can't wait to see what he'll do in the future.

Is Brolin gonna be in Public Enemies as well? Could that film get any better? I wonder who the cinematographer will be...?

The actual fool is the one who expects no constant change, nor the wheel of fortuna to spin round and round.

Speaking as someone who actually saw the real Bob Crane in that dinner theater production re-created in Auto Focus, all I can say is: Geez, I hope Brolin gets to make lots of Michael Mann movies.
