Today's Movie

Le grand bleu. Besson's first film in english, and for me his best. Been a long time since i originally seen it, picked it up on blu-ray and it's still as special as I remember. If you're gonna watch it make sure you track down the original, and not the horrendous re-dubbed into french version.

Good selection eavesy. iirc it was filmed on the island of Amorgos. There's a bar there named after the film. Nice spot

Anyone seen Girl with a dragon tattoo and the two other films that follow em, any good?

This was my favourite film for years. I could watch the opening scenes again and again and Jean Marc Barr was soooo gorgeous, he took my breath away when I first saw it.

I have finally watched Dr. Zhivago having had it from lovefilm since January. Amazing film and well worth the wait.

I'm on a (nightmare) visit to darkest Coventry at the minute and, just to make it even more 'fun', we went shopping at Birmingham Bullring Centre yesterday. On the positive side I bought the blu-ray version of the Big Blue folowing a recommendation from a friend and will hopefully be back home later tonight watching it. Also got Leon on blu-ray while I'm at it - my DVD version is scratched

Tonight's movie...

The King's Speech

I've really struggled to watch films lately, several have just been tedious dross. Not sure why, but this one held my attention. It's a simple story of boy meets girl causing a constitutional crisis...

Highly recomended. Flapjack rating 9/10.

Only just seen this Stolly. Did you get the original english language version, or the awful french dubbed version?

Badlands

The Navigators (2001) - a Ken Loach film about the breaking up of British Rail and the effects on the workers. Very good film, I enjoyed the humour and learned a bit about the way that Railtrack works or more to the point doesn't work!
