Zero Dark Thirty was very good, Jessica Chastain being in it obviously helps too.

Please tell me they didn't cast her as Hilary Clinton!!!

Seen an odd film last night called Sightseers. English flick about a distrurbed  Black Country ( I think) couple caravanning. Wouldn't  be to everyone's taste ............grim and disturbing enough in places.

Watched Hitchcock also. So so.

No Soloing

Watched Tyrannosaur last night. Paddy Considine's directorial debut.
The blurb doesnt sound too good and its a bit gritty but I thought it was first class.

I know its been talked about before, but heads up for another Considine movie - acting this time - Dead Mans Shoes is on Film 4 this Sunday.

I heard the 2D version was a bit flat.

2D, heard a review that said 3D adds nothing to it. You'll enjoy it, different from the book a fair bit but still good

Milltown Row2

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Wouldn't be for everyone but I liked it, pretty intricate though.

Watched a couple of films last night:

Salt - 4/10 Ket. Angelina helps though.

Dead Mans Shoes - 9/10 thought it was brilliant. Well written and well acted. Excellent film. Pretty dark stuff though . . .

NAG1

Anyone ever watch the George Clooney - The American

unbelievably self indulgent tosh, couldnt believe I had sat through it once it was over.
