Hey, Don't bash Whit Stillman. Barcelona was one of his best films. It's not supposed to be a travel-guide to the city or Spain. I thought it was pretty funny. The guy who plays the dickhead military brother is brilliant, although he's since been reduced to the lamentable "Gilmour Girls".

Sunday, 430am -- in other words it's party time in Barcelona!

Hmmm. I liked the movie. But, then again, I am a self-absorbed American living abroad.

BTW, that movie (pictured) is terrible and has nothing to do with the city of Barcelona or Spain. It's a talk-fest cum snooze-fest about two self-absorbed Americans abroad. Check out the real Barcelona!
