you know what? i just remembered another movie i saw him sing in.
it's called "Emma". He played Frank Churchill. Emma was played by Gweneth Paltrow. Jeremy Northam and the guy who played Floop were also in it......

there was a scene where Ewan sang....he was good ( no **** sherlock.)

I couldn't live without that DVD. Impossible. And without both soundtracks.

Millane · 08-20-2003, 05:33 AM

sorry its been awhile but what is that trippy green/yellow drink they show in Moulin Rouge, i saw a painting in a restaraunt today with a little wench sitting on it and it reminded me of MR...
i probably should watch it again but Ned Kelly is out this week and TTT next week and i dont really have anytime...

Sheeana · 08-20-2003, 05:50 AM

It's absinthe or 'the green fairy.'

Millane · 08-20-2003, 05:53 AM

is it?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
thats the stuff Dita's dancing in in the mOBSCENE film clip, thats cool as

hmmmm well i dont think the painting was absinthe because i think they were selling it... i dunno

Lalaith · 08-20-2003, 12:21 PM

Uh, Absinthe, it's gross, but the fastest way to get drunk if you really want to (but really, really gross).

i dont think we're able to buy it down her, they ell some crapnnabe absinthe but i dont want that... Maybe thats next on my to do list

According to a few google searches, it's legal in New Zealand, but I must confess that I've never seen it around anywhere.

Recipes:

And how to drink it:

Got your Absinthe? Ok, here's how you drink it: First, pour yourself an once or so of the "Green Goddess." Now put an Absinthe spoon (a spoon with slits in it) over the glass with a sugar cube on it. Dribble COLD water over the sugar cube and let it dissolve into the Absinthe. (This will make it go from emerald to an opaque color.) Unless you're very, very brave, don't gulp Absinthe. It's a "sipping drink" for a very good reason. Not only is Absinthe extremely bitter (that's the wormwood) but it's also 140 to 180 proof.

I don't know if it's the real Absinthe that we get here .... tiny green bottles saying Absinth.
But maybe it's not the real Absinthe.

Legal in New Zealand. Interesting. I have always wanted to move there.

Millane · 08-26-2003, 04:14 AM

thanks for those websites Sheeana, i have been checking it out and i have found one thats available in Australia and its only about $70 for 700 mL... so its either that or i find some shifty chem bloke to mix it up in his bathtub, and i know just the guy MWAHAHAHA

Lalaith · 08-26-2003, 05:24 AM

It's not that you miss anything if you don't taste it.

Lady of Darkness · 08-28-2003, 05:46 PM

will it wake me up? I hate 21 hour car rides.....
LoD

Lalaith · 08-29-2003, 05:55 AM

It will make you drunk. Not awake.

Lady of Darkness · 08-29-2003, 09:07 PM

just as good.....make it fly past....as long as i don't get another headache....
lol

Lalaith · 08-30-2003, 12:45 AM

I'd say that it makes you rather sick. Not a good solution.

Millane · 08-31-2003, 05:31 AM

id say that it expands your mind... at least thats what ive heard, its like a really good hallucinagenic... apparently not like acid its just supposed to do stuff to your brain that makes you more creative... if it was just normal alcohol id still be enticed by the color, that always sucks me in

Lalaith · 08-31-2003, 06:29 AM

the taste of Absinthe is really gross, yuck

***HOBBIT*** · 08-31-2003, 01:40 PM

Lalaith · 09-01-2003, 07:58 AM
