themadpokerSo hey, guess who's just about done this term and is getting ready to sign a contract for a four month job starting in September? A girl who's read a lot of books this month, that's who.

7. Kamikaze Girls (July 4) -- 4 stars
It's the epic goth loli meets yanki biker friendship story you never knew you wanted! Honestly this is a tough movie to describe, it's an explosion of style anchored in Momoko and Ichiko's slow growing friendship. The only thing I can think to tell you is this is a movie that lets you watch a girl dressed in a frilly Rococo style dress ride in on her grandmother's motorcycle and deliver baseball bat beatdowns to a biker gang in defense of her friend. Highly recommended! :D 4 stars
8. The King and the Clown (July 9) -- 4 stars
This was gorgeous. There was nothing I didn't love about this film, the cinematography was beautiful, the actors were great, and I laughed and cried exactly when the film wanted me to. Highly recommended. 4 stars
