Walk the Line

Gotta love the Cash. Gotta hate the film getting messed up and burning, delaying things for 25 minutes towards the end of the movie.

Harry Potter & Gobs of Fire

Tasty movie. I think this episode excited me about The Harry Potter Movies as much as Harry’s initial trip down Diagon Alley did about the book the first time I read it. (catch up.. saw this weeks ago in Vegas)

Good Night and Good Luck

Hip. David Strathairn has a huge imdb credit list, but nothing jumped out at me as exceptional. That’s very odd since my impression of him was highly favorable, but looking at imdb I don’t know why. So it’s nice to have this movie to point to as an amazing performance but a great actor. This is a must movie, if not in the theater, netflick-it.

Everyone knows how much I love a good dark comedy with archery!

In the future, I will endeavor not to read any darn reviews. Especially on movies I’m eager to see. The horrible spoiler in the last line of one I read at rotten tomatoes didn’t ruin the movie for me, but it was infuriating. The movie itself payed off. I hadn’t watched the last two episodes of the series, which turned out OK. Watching “Objects in Space” on Sunday made me want to see the movie a second time, and watch the entire series again. I’ll probably begin that tonight.

The official site for this movie is so over flashed-up it’s unbearable. I did some searches for gunrunning links, but what I found was too political to be casually linked. So instead, I’ll link to Yuri Orlov the physicist. Same name as the character from this fair movie, but not the same man at all.

An excellent movie. Looking forward to seeing and reading more about this.

A fun netflix night at our place. Woody Allen’s 1979 movie Manhattan was a hoot. I died during the conversation he was having with his buddy while standing next to the gorilla (monkey?) skeleton. (wishing I had an image to link) There’s good woody allen, and there’s bad woody allen. It was good to go back and find good woody allen.
