The Duchess - Wow...

Oh to live in a time with pretty dresses, eh?

Not if you're Georgina. I just finished watching The Duchess and it is just wonderful... the story is told brilliantly, the settings and costumes were just wow. And the acting was spot on especially by Fiennes and Knightly. Holy cow. Keira knocked it out of the ball park with this one and if she doesn't get recognized for it I'll be very dissapointed. I found this film far better than Atonement though the stories are very similar in some ways, and the ending doesn't harken Disney at all. lol.

I am seeing a pattern with Keira's films lol the ending just aren't all that happy to me. It all started with Pirates 3 and it's snowballing and getting worse. BLAH!

But all in all the film is masterful. I hope it doesn't get buried come Oscar time. It probably will, there's talk of other films already, but I think it deserves at the very least a mention... but I'm all for Keira winning best actress. She deserves it most definitely this time around.


*sigh* other than that, not much to talk about... I have FIVE DAYS till Disney, and I am mostly packed. The last things are essentials that can't be packed until the day of. Which, for me, means Saturday night... only 4 days away from that! *whew*!


Got the call from Janine a little bit ago. They got in way later than I expected. We're meeting up tomorrow so I can give her the lasagna. *sigh* I think I'll go from there over to my gparents... depending on when and where we meet. She said she'd give me a call in the morning once she figured out what she'd be doing.

Alright, I've got a load to go into the laundry, so I'm out.

The Passion....

that movie was just awesome... though I spent most of the beating/crucifiction scenes with my eyes closed(and when they drove the nails into Jesus I closed my ears too!)... it was really emotional... but I'm not a very emotional person... so I kept wishing I could just let it all out.... what really got me was the part of His mother, Mary... she was a great actress and there were a couple of scenes that we did in "Celebrate Life" so it was like "WHOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAA"

anyway GO SEE THE MOVIE!!!!! It's a little slow in the beginning IMHO... but it is just a blip in the movie when it's all over... (and all of the guys in it are cute! Ponchas Pilot, Jesus, and even Satan! LOL)
