Set in the long hot summer of 1975, 50 Ways of Saying Fabulous is the beguiling story of 12 year-old Billy, who is about to discover that growing up is a lot more confusing than he could have ever imagined.
At some point in most people's lives, the salad days of youth begin to truly fade and the realities of not just settling on a solid career but also advancing within that chosen field start to truly take hold. Likewise, the need to settle in and nest and find a mate and raise a family is likely to kick in as well, if it hasn't already. And these notions, general as they might be, would seem to be universal if A Dirty Carnival, the Korean crime drama from writer-director Ha Yu, is any indication, be you American or Korean, civilian or gangster. The film's protagonist, Byung-du (In-seong Jo), is around 30 and starting to take stock in himself. He's a low-level criminal, a gangster in charge of a small band of loyal "troops" who can't seem to get ahead in the dog eat dog world of crime. His immediate boss, Sang-chul (Yoon Jae-Moon), takes and takes from but rarely gives back to Byung-du, and as a result the handsome and brave bad guy quickly rises in the audience's estimation as a city boy who's just trying to do the right thing, whatever it takes. The financial dependence of his sickly mother and younger siblings on Byung-du also increases the character's sympathetic edge quite a bit. But still, we see Byung-du's darker side too, as when he shows up at the home of a family that owes him a debt. The family can't pay, so Byung-du decides to make himself at home for awhile as partial payment instead, lounging around in his boxers and watching TV and taking a massage from a daughter of the household. Creepy. Meanwhile, Byung-du's old friend from school Min-ho (Gung-Min Nam) is also grappling with the difficulties of coming of age and career. He's one of those guys who tells people that he's a "filmmaker" -- you know the kind -- even though he has no real produced work to show for it. But when he is reunited with Byung-du, Min-ho sees an opportunity in his friend's life of crime. He studies Byung-du, he interviews his gang, and he soon has the template for a real, viable screenplay that could make a damned good crime movie. The reunion with Min-ho also leads to Byung-du becoming reacquainted with an old flame, Hyun-ju (Bo-young Lee), a good girl who works in a book store but who is undeniably attracted to the gangster. A romance slowly blossoms between the two, but Byung-du must continuously balance the "normal" aspects of his life -- his family, his girlfriend -- with the "gangster" aspects -- his other family, his killing people and whatnot. And as anyone who has seen a gangster film before can tell you, that is not an easy balance to strike. And like many of the films and TV series that seem to have influenced A Dirty Carnival, the idea of family is integral to this story. Byung-du's motley gang of misfits is formed and exists around the whole notion of being a family unit, just as the larger criminal world is a strange sort of family in and of itself too. And when that family's rules are broken -- as when Byung-du's immediate boss Sang-chul breaks the code of conduct and uses a knife during a baseball bat-only fight (much safer, that) -- there is a price to be paid. Sang-chul's mistake also offers his underling the chance to finally move ahead in the workplace, as it were, when the big boss Hwang (Ho-jin Jeon) requires a risky assassination to be made on a public figure and Byung-du sees an opportunity to bypass his current boss and get to work directly under Hwang. And if that assassination costs just a little bit more of Byung-du's soul, well… Not that murder is the only way to chip away at one's soul, as Byung-du's filmmaker friend Min-ho proves as he hits the big-time with his gangster screenplay -- but betrays Byung-du's trust along the way
If looking at the news gives you the idea that the world is going to hell and the Apocalypse is about to break loose on Earth, look no further. What you hear is the noise of thunder and the trumpet-playing beast, because we have found the definitive proof: Behold, the BolsiPlus.
BolsiPlus are sticky pockets. Yes, they are pockets, they stick, they made every surface fugly useful. And thanks to NASA's Apollo program and the genius of Ilde Irun, its inventor, these pockets can attach to any surface known to mankind: just stick that Velcro strip to your laptop, fridge, wall, door, car seat, PlayStation 3, nuclear submarine or favorite tiger-pattern thong.
And as you can see in the gallery, they come in all kinds of fabrics and decorations. There's even a Wall Street Journal model, perfect to put Walter Mossberg's exclusive pre-production iPhone in his exclusive pre-production next generation Santa Rosa MacBook. You can even send your own photo. A video demonstrating its hundred billion uses (not safe for work, play or life) after the jump.
(For the love of all that is good and sacred! STOP THAT MUSIC!)
I told you, not safe for any carbon-based lifeforms. If you have to get one, prices range from $4 to $6, depending on the model. Or you can get a pack with the six models for $20. – Jesus Diaz
