what matters is not the development of themes, the leveraging of unique imagery, or the rich tapestry of character arcs. what matters is that they found each other.

Playing a blinder is sort of like blindingly obvious, Alex.

Loved that movie a lot although, I can see why it would piss people off. The last scene (before the credits) is one of the most powerful I had watched since a long time.

Not sure if the scene after the credits rolled added to it or not.
I'm still undecided.

I need some movies about manual labor, hard work, physical work. Especially for money/part of some imprisonment. Anyone think of anything?

Time lapse.
Avoid this. It's an interesting premise but the execution is mangled.

Re: What movies are you watching?
The cover of the dvd and the blurb for the release of british movie pride has been 'straightwashed' upon it's release in the US
No mention at all about its central characters being gay, just about 'an activist group' coming to the aid of miners striking in Thatchers Britain. It causing quite the stir.
Everywhere else cover

Re: What movies are you watching?
Got a copy of Boyhood. Been looking forward to watching but didn't realize it was nearly 3 hours. Probably going to be a couple more days before I get a chance to watch.
