All Consuming Weekend
Films I saw or tried to watch this weekend:
- I walk the line: ‘And take the pills.’ Joaquin Phoenix is highly watchable channelling Johnny Cash, but the film felt a little too much like a tv/mini series to me.
- North Country: ‘Life is tough when yer a miner girl.’ Very ‘Silkwood’, in fact Charlize Theron might just be the new Meryl Streep.
- The Matador: ‘Bond. Not Bond.’ Eye-opening performance by Pierce Brosnan, great support from Greg Kinnear. I fell asleep 3/4 through the film, must watch the end soon.
- Walllace and Gromit and the Curse of the Were Rabbit: Gave up after five minutes. Not in the mood for clay-silliness.
I’m looking for a good book to read after Banville’s The Sea and McEwan’s Saturday. Any suggestions?
