It was so much fun to read your review of ...Hi Sue. It was so much fun to read your review of Burn After Reading. I, too, love Tilda Swinton, Jo. It's a treat that in Michael Clayton, she and George Clooney were "enemies." In this film, they're lovers.<br /><br />I enjoyed Happy-Go-Lucky too. I was reluctant to rent it because Terri Gross on NPR said that the Sally Hawkins character (the happy-go-lucky one) "got on her nerves." But I love British films and this director (Mike Leigh) so I rented it. I can see Terri Gross' point but I think that was supposed to be one of the characteristics of the woman she played. And it's to her credit as an actress that she made us care about her, even though she was so neurotic. The Spanish dance class scene was one of the best scenes I've seen in the movies in a long time.<br /><br />I wish I had a movie to recommend this week, but the first 30 minutes. And...whatever happened to the 90 minute movie? They're all soooo long now.<br /><br />I do see "Rachel Getting Married" coming around on the cable movie channels. I recommend it highly. It stars Anne Hathaway in a role that's against type for her -- she's a recovering addict who gets release time to attend her sisters wedding. It's part drama, part comedy, and has the most wonderful mix of interesting characters.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729837575450453607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-49955807337357378542010-02-02T04:38:04.706-05:002010-02-02T04:38:04.706-05:00Tilda Swinton is great.

It's been on HBO but I haven't watched because I was afraid it was one of those violent Quentin Tarrantino (sp?) type movies, but I LOVE the coen brothers, so it's a go. Thanks for the review. Hope you're feeling better.Lori Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808703279193470654noreply@blogger.com
