I'm not looking to fit into any cult... 'The Big Lebowski' was genuinely hilarious. John Goodman's Walter is one of the funniest characters I've ever witnessed.
'Lost in Translation' was nothing special, though.
I was so pumped to see Lost in Translation because I really like films like Garden State and Closer and I was told Lost in Translation was in the same mold. I watched Lost in Translation and even as the movie ended I remember thinking; "Ok . . . when does this movie actually start."
Gypsies are commonly refered to Middle-Eastern nomadic people in the Balkans (Balkans refers to countries such as Albania, Macedonia, Greece, Serbia) - a region where everyone hates one another.
But, where I come from these Gypsies, who are believed to be from mostly of Indian descent, are usually beggars, scam artist, and part of the lower class.
Even when I see Indian people in America, I just refer to them as Gypsies, and thus, the stereotypes and stigmas about them come into mind. I know its stupid to have a bad stereotype about them, but I would be lying if I told you if I didn't hink this way.
so then, where are from?
On a side note about them movies, never seen Big Lebowski but I thought lost in translation was nice. Nothing special but nice. It turned out to be more of a chick flic in the end though
