HUGO...

Visually stunning combination of real life and cgi.... Great story about hopes, dreams, magic and faith through the experiences of a young french orphan.

Safehouse...Denzel Washington doing his usual incredible job in film...

I finally saw The Artist yesterday. What a great movie! I know silent films aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I happen to love silent films, so it greatly appealed to me. The story is easy to follow and the acting was great. I loved the bit that Peppy did with George's coat in his dressing room. It was so darling. :)

Puccini For Beginners (2006) with Elizabeth Reaser, Gretchen Mol and Justin Kirk

I was drawn in by the idea of opera-loving lesbians, because I'm an opera-loving queerbait and I love opera-loving lesbians, and it seemed fluffy and pithy.

I hated Allegra, the protagonist. She reminded me of myself at 21. It annoyed me. Grace reminded me of myself... rather, who I'd want to be if I wasn't afraid to be. Philip... ugh, his hair. Show me a butch with his hair and I'll marry hym.

I don't know what more to say without spoiling it. If you don't mind rolling your eyes a little over dialogue that tries far too hard to be intellectual, and laughing at very neurotic people, you're either a Frasier fan and you'd love it or you're not a Frasier fan and it's still worth enjoying.

I just saw Columbiana and liked it. I wasn't sure if I would but it had a strong story line and kept my interest. I also watched Boondock Saints which was also pretty interesting but seems to be a knock off of Pulp Fiction

MissRepresentation
 

Last night I went to a screening of "MissRepresentation" at the LGBT community center here. For those who are unfamiliar with it, it's a documentary about women's representation in the media. I think it's really important and I would urge everyone to see it, if possible.

Awesome movie....



a must see, however this particular trailer does not have subtitles. The name of this movie is Aimee & Jaguar....

Went to see the Lorax 3d was okay. .

Midnight in Paris

I had reservations but ended up really enjoying it.

50/50
 

its a movie about a 26 year old getting diagnosed with a deadly cancer... he just powers through it. i thought it would be ok but i ended up crying in the end... its a great movie!

Miss Representation is definitely a must-see documentary for women, men, and children! Thanks for posting!

"In Time"

Didn't expect a masterpiece with this film, but was still a a bit disappointed. Interesting premise, but poorly executed. Justin Timberlake is overrated as an actor. Amanda Seyfreid is interesting to look at and her character rocked that kick-ass bob. Other than that, I was left bored. :|

Next!

The Lincoln Lawyer with Matthew Mcconaughy..

Interesting to say the least, found it browsing on netflix...

I saw 'The Help' and 'Midnight in Paris' this weekend past on DVD.

'The Help' was wonderful and heart warming, I didn't feel I missed much not having read the book. The cast was truly fantastic, the oscars and oscar nods were well earned.

like HowSoonIsNow - I was a bit trepidatious about Woody Allen's latest film (because I've found his more recent films to be hit or miss)...but I'm so glad I saw it - 'Midnight in Paris' is incredibly charming and clever, especially if you're a fan of early 20th century art, literature & the cultural history of American expatriates in the roaring 20s.
