Resurrecting the Movies thread...

I enjoyed Laurel Canyon. Yes, it was "light but good" as you mentioned, friend Katherine. I actually thought the best performances were turned in by the supporting actors. I was a little disappointed in Fran McDormand's performance (I thought she overacted...if I were in her situation, I would not have had any angst...I would have been going "I am the luckiest damn woman in the whole wide world!!") and it was not a stretch for Christian Bale either. . . but the most exciting part was meeting the cinematographer, Wally Pfister. His cinematography credits include Memento, Insomnia, The Prestige, and...The Dark Knight!! He talked for about 40 mins and I could have listened to a couple of hours more. . . but there was another film scheduled, so we had to vacate the theater.

I was entranced to see Natasha McElhone in Laurel Canyon! I haven't seen her since Solaris...what a beauty and natural talent!!

Yes, she looked very cool in that movie.

Alas, I did not get to see Wendy and Lucy yet because the show was sold out.

Body of Lies sounds interesting...I'm looking forward to Australia opening this month (thanks, Leslie, for reminding us). We've been needing this ever since The Thorn Birds!!

Should we have a new topic about the much anticipated movie Australia which is opening soon?

I just saw the new trailer on Youtube and it looks great.  I will definitely be going to see this.

Just saw Quantum of Solace.

I thought it was very very good.  Craig is amazing and it is humorous in some places without being camp.  Always enjoy the banter with his CIA friend.  Didn't buy his last fight scene though, but hey, nothing's perfect.
