Sex and the City

I just came back from watching "Sex and the City" and I have to say I really enjoyed the movie! While it definitely wasn't the smartest or best movie I've ever seen, I still laughed out loud a couple of times and really got into it. Here's what Dorothy Snarker has to say about the movie, which pretty much reflects my opinion.

What I liked best:
  • The friendship and the natural feel between the four ladies
  • Miranda's storyline and her struggle to forgive her husband
  • The reconciliation sex between Miranda and Steve
  • Charlotte telling Mr. Big "I curse the day you were born"
  • The great acting by Cyntia Nixon
What I didn't like:
  • Jennifer Hudson's character - it was unnecesary and took away attention from the four friends
  • How, minutes after seeing Cynthia Nixon / Miranda on that huge screen "wearing" her co-stars / husbands hands, we got to see Samantha's neighbourg showering naked - I just had to look away, I really did not need to see that!
What the movie showed me:

  • I didn't realise before how much I miss having friends like these. I loved it when the three friends were like mirrors Samantha couldn't look away from and made her realise what she could not see on her own.
  • Being gay is such an integral part of who I am now, that sometimes, I have a really hard time getting invested in straight relationships.

Now that I've gushed long enough about Cynthia Nixon, may I just show you this little picture of her at one of the Sex and the City premieres in London:

Who said that lesbians aren't beautiful and don't have any fashion sense?
