Most of us love to watch movies. Myself included. But of late ( past 7 yrs~) I've built a distaste for stuff that requires too much patience. I guess I have a syndrome.
After watching any movie, my throat dries up. My legs hurt and my head throbs with pain.
Are the movies too dry for me? Is it the 180 minutes that irritates me? I have no idea.
This is true especially if I watch a movie in the theaters...
Like Sunday evening, watched this movie called...and I thought it was good one. Good acting, good cinematography. Good direction and all. When I returned home around 1230AM I had a big fat headache. Oh yes, the kind that won't go away without a Tylenol or Crocin.
This is why I avoid all these premiere invitations...and I am afraid I may give an impression that I don't want to attend these events. I am afraid of the headache post show.
Like ok, hear this: About a year ago, I was at Inox Nariman Point at the premiere of this really big budget movie. And all the stars and all were there on the proverbial red carpet. Snacks and all was served. I was in one of the "premiere" seats- whatever that meant.
Fifty minutes later my head started hurting. And it was so bad, I did not want to wait any longer. Poor Aabeda, had to leave the movie too --she was enjoying the show!
Called the driver who was promptly there at the exit and I jumped in the car and came home.
Am I fussy? Or...
