Fell asleep half an hour into Donnie Darko last night, did I miss much? I see This Is England is on tonight, too. Have heard good reports so must watch it.

Donnie Darko's ok, not the masterpiece some make it out to be in my opinion.

This Is England is excellent.

Can't believe they made a film of it, thought the book was dung.

Polanski wanted make another Harris book, Pompeii (thought it was crap) but didn't get the green light for some reason.

If somebody told me the story of Donnie Darko and said do you want to watch that movie, I would say no. However watching it, it is just a very good profound, deep and memorable movie. It is not unique but very well done.

No. Why? It looks like fairly crude, standard Hollywood rubbish that I watch all the time. Why might this be any better?

Watched the Next Three Days recently with Russell Crowe. Surprisingly good show, fast paced towards the end, very engaging and I really enjoyed it.
