Some days you're honest. Some days you're not.

A few things I love in movie:
- Wide-angle lenses
- Wong Kar-Wai style romance
- Hand-held camera
- Thunderstorms
- Realistic, shockingly loud gunfights
- Flying
- Grain
- Gong Li
- Location shooting
- Driving fast
- Phil Collins’ In The Air Tonight
- Digital cinematography
- Cities at night
- Skies at night
- Practical Effects
- Smuggling
- Mogwai
- James Newton Howard
- Tragedy
- Men with facial hair
- Standoffs
- Characters who are the absolute best at what they do.
A handful of these in the right combination is enough to make a great film. All of them together is Miami Vice.
