Peter's Friends was where I first encountered Staunton, and then Sense and Sensibility, with Laurie again. She seemed always to play the child-absorbed mum, until HP.
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I just watched The Namesake and it left me a sobbing mess.
Also, I feel I have another reason to dislike John York's partner as she cheated on Gogol. (That bitch.)

More surprisingly, she's got a great singing voice.
I first saw her in the National Theatre production of "Guys and Dolls" in the early 1980s. Bob Hoskins was Nathan Detroit, Julia MacKenzie was Miss Adelaide and Imelda was the smallest of the Hot Box girls. I sat in one of the front rows and caught a piece of somebody's costume as they stripped it off.
I've seen some great musical theatre since then, but nothing that can really top that.

I tivoed Stage Beauty off of IFC and just watched it.
Wow.
I wish I had more words.
I also wish that I had seen it in the theatre.

I went to see Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day yesterday and loved it. Frances McDormand and Amy Adams were both great in their roles. (I wasn't as thrilled by Lee Pace or any of the male actors, but they were relatively small parts of the film.) Shirley Henderson is remarkably convincing as a humorless and downright nasty person, despite most of the previous roles I've seen her in being goofily chipper.

Really? Because the trailers left me with no desire to see it, but it is playing at my local theater, so I almost went this past weekend.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
we've been watching Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and I am getting so excited! When the trailer plays at work people clap for the theme tune.
