Feb. 1st, 2004 11:27 amdespite it being warmer than usual yesterday, the boy and i stayed in and watched movies . . .
* jude - man, that thomas hardy must have been a hell of a lot of fun down at the pub. whew. i like hardy, but he can be really hard to take sometimes. the movie was really well done - i've really liked all of the michael winterbottom films i've seen, and i don't think christopher eccleston gets enough work.
* swimming pool - i really enjoyed it, despite some issues i had regarding ozon's view of women (mother/creator-type stuff, though there are some other elements regarding hysteria that i'm still unsure about). it certainly prompted a conversation about difficult films vs. easy films. anyway, i really recommend it.
* the core - hey, for every two good films, it's great to watch a really, really, really dumb film. and the core certainly is that.
today we're going to see 21 grams.
