i finally got around to watching midnight in paris -- a movie i've wanted to see for awhile, because i mean... paris? literature? need i say more?
there are probably various interpretations of the recurring theme and feeling of nostalgia throughout the story, but what it meant to me was to appreciate the present for what it is. and it's possible to make the most of your time now, as your "golden age."
i'll leave you with my favorite quote from the movie, spoken by ernest hemmingway incarnate:
"No subject is terrible if the story is true, if the prose is clean and honest, and if it affirms courage and grace under pressure." --Midnight in Paris
