My daughter and I are going to see In Bruges this afternoon. That's the plan of the moment, at least.

Ah, great plan. Let us know what you think! Too bad we didn't run into Ralph Fiennes last year..

Just came from seeing The Other Boleyn Girl.

Critics gave it a C- and tore it up, but me and my friend thought it was quite good and not as soap-opera-y as the critics made out.

I do recommend it, and of course, it's based on a historical fiction book so liberty has been taken with historical events.

MaineWriter:
I saw In Bruges late yesterday afternoon.

I mostly wanted to see it because I was "in Bruges" last year at this time, when they were filming the movie. In that way, I wasn't disappointed. Lovely scenes of the city and it brought back good memories.

Storywise, it was good, but not great. It starts off in a light vein and then takes a dark turn with a fairly violent, bloody ending. I was prepared for that from having read the reviews. I am glad I saw it but it is a "once is enough" movie for me.

Lots of jokes that pick on Belgium, though.  >:(

Did anyone see Red River 1948?

I just started a thread on that film.

Be happy to get your views on it...

hugs!
