what was the last movie you watched?
- Thread starter Folsom Al
- Start date
After having been too busy to see it while in theaters (by the way, boo to the fact that a full theatrical release lasts only about three weeks these days), I rented Children of Men today. Very, very good I thought. Not always easy to watch, and a bit different than I'd expected -- don't really know why it was different since I was fairly familiar with the story/tone before renting... just felt different, maybe -- but very well done.
Good enough even that I didn't get too bothered by the startling handsomeness of both Clive Owen and Chewitel Enjiofor being wasted in such dirty and unpleasant environments.

Two minor points, if I may...
While your title sounds interesting, especially in the light of the steroid controversies, I'm hazarding a guess that you meant "Pride and Prejudice"...
One other point. Of course, Keira can act. She's been paired opposite both Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp and has pretended to ignore each of them at times...

oops.
but how hard can it be to ignore a wooden mannequin and a gay/drunk pirate in mascara?
In any case, P & P showed me she had a real acting future beyond rubber octopusses, so that was nice.
Edit: it appears that she was actually nominated for an Oscar for her performance, so guess I was not the only one who noticed
