Everything is quiet since you're not around And I live in the numbness now In the background I do the things we did before I walk haight street to the store And they say wheres that crazy girl You dont get drunk on red wine and fight no more I dont see you anymore since the hospital The plans I make still have you in them Cause you come swimming into view And I'm hanging on your words Like I always used to do The words they use so lightly I only feel for you I only know because I carry you around In the background I m in the background Words they come and memories all repeat I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets And I would never lie to you no I would never lie to you no I felt you long after we were through, we were through The plans I make still have you in them Cause you come swimming into view And Im hanging on your words Like I always used to do The words they use so lightly I only feel for you I only know because I carry you around In the background Cause I felt you long after we were through Well you come swimming into view And Im hanging on your words Like I always used to do The words they use so lightly I only feel to you I only know because Im way Im way in the background Im in the background

| Go See: Eastern PromisesFirst movie I've seen in a long long time - since Knocked Up in July I think...
Eastern Promises is right up there with - dare I say it - the Godfather in terms of an authentic gangster film.
The reason it is NOT a pure "Godfather" classic is because of its scope, among other reasons. The acting is amazing - the roles played by Viggo Mortensen (Aragon, LOtR) and Vincent Cassel (Toulour, Ocean's 12) are award worthy. Committed, bold and authentic. The other thing you will realize is that while the Godfather causes you to empathize with the main criminals by way of mostly their character, this movie is much clearer on why you should empathize with certain individuals, and who is truly evil.
There is no shortage of very lifelike violence and a deplorable sex scene but this movie managed to escape an NC-17 rating. It also contains one of the most gut-wrenching fight scenes you will ever witness.
It's beauty lies in its grittiness and realism. The Russian mob has never looked better. Overall, a masterpiece. 4 stars.
