I got out The Party by Blake Edwards (with Peter Sellers) cause I hadn't seen it in ages. I'd forgotten how great the first 2 thirds were and how bad the last third was.

Blake Edwards puts a bum carbuncle on many of his movies, like "The Party" & "The Great Race," by stretching the gimmick out well beyond what feels initially very funny, & continually coming back to motifs until all else has been crowded out from your mind. He's the Wagner of film farceurs.

Haven't had as much time to watch movies lately, but one I did see
was very, very disturbing. An American Crime, has anyone else seen that? I had to turn my head away several times during that movie. Supposed to be based on a true story. Sometimes people can be animals. You'll know what I mean if you dare to watch it. |

I am so behind on my Movie thread...
First, I bought and watched Breakfast at Tiffany's, because I just love that movie and always will. Next, just to temporarily break my nostalgia binge, I rented The Reader. Had to watch it twice because I got too hung up on the love scenes the first time around. After watching the interviews and director's comments and then viewing the movie for a second time, I caught a better drift of the story and it was truly poignant. Winslet was stunning with her German accent. Quite the heartbreaking ending. The other night I downloaded Streetcar Named Desire. I'd never seen that movie before and it had fabulous acting also. Looked a little low-budget, but who cares. I can almost see Blanche's influence on several actresses and celebrities. Has that movie ever been colorized? It was great in black and white. I didn't think I'd like it in black and white, but I really did. Next up: Wait Until Dark. ... and the binge continues. PS: I didn't care for What's Up Doc. Too much slapstick. |

I finally got around to renting 'Finding Neverland". Definitely a feel good movie and very well done. Plus I adore Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet!

There Will Be Blood
The first time I watched this, I didn't like it so much. But now it's grown on me. I think I'll have to buy this on DVD. BTW, I think Daniel Plainview is a lot like me. Especially when he's sitting in the dark with his supposed brother and says the line about "people". |

Sex, Lies, Videotape - one of the best movies of the 80s IMO.

I watched Wait Until Dark and enjoyed it quite a bit. There was more time spent setting up the story about the drug dealers than I remembered, but the scary apartment scene was every bit of frightening as it was last time I saw it years ago. Not to mention, I just love Audrey Hepburn's acting anyway. Next up is Splendor in the Grass with Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty and/or On the Waterfront with Marlon Brando. |

OH and how can I forget.... HARRY POTTER. |
