f’ing trachtenburgs

The Trachtenburg family’s car broke down on Friday night — so no Slideshow. :( But instead, we ventured to E. St in DC for Plan B: see the exclusive engagement of the recent Sundance award winner, “Primer”. The review in the latest Esquire generated the majority of the excitement for me and it turned out to be it a well-made albeit confusing sci-fi-ish flick done on a very low budget. The dialogue was very close to authentic but the characters failed to pause from their rapid-fire delivery of it to sound 100% convincing — the premise is interesting: it explores the paradox of time travel — but for me it brought up more questions like “Who the hell is that guy?” and “What’s going on with that guy?” and “What the eff is going on?”. This particular review gets more to the point.
