the mockingjay lives

I've seen this twice now and I honestly don't think I can write a full review on it. Let me just say I loved, loved, loved it and it was horrible and depressing and amazing. I loved Cinna's design book. I loved how Katniss kept fingering the pearl Peeta gave her. I loved Effie's attempts to glamourize the District 13 clothes. I loved Gale and how he saved as many people from 12 as he could. I loved Prim's courage. I loved Haymitch and how he wore a beanie. I loved Cressida and her bizarre but pretty hairstyle. I loved how we got to see the real Finnick Odair. I loved the song, The Hanging Tree, and how we got to see the rebellion in the other districts too. I loved sitting in the theatre sobbing on my best friend's shoulder because PEETA. I don't think I stopped crying the second time we saw it. I walked out of the theatre wiping my face hoping I still looked presentable. It was so book-accurate and so many of the lines were word perfect.

Go enjoy your day and take Finnick's advice: it's better not to give in to it.....
