bopping right along.

I rented Gosford Park this weekend, and I highly recommend it. Altman is either genius or a complete disaster, but this movie was so tightly plotted and gorgeously acted. You kind of need cliff notes, though, to keep track of who everyone is. Or watch it over again, which is what I did. Everyone was superb, especially Maggy Smith, who I want to be

Clive Owen who will soon star in King Arthur, as Arthur. He was great! He's totally won me over. I thought he was amazing, handsome, and broody (not to mention british and repressed. heh), a combination guaranteed to make me all fluttery and swoony.

Ooooh, I hear you. I fell for Clive Owen in Croupier (which I highly recommend -- he's even broodier, very British, repressed and vaguely cruel, if that turns you on), and he starred as The Driver in the online BMW short film series. I wonder if they're still available at bmw.com?

And now, I'm all excited about King Arthur, which is dangerous, 'cause what if it sucks? It's totally going to suck. meep

I've decided even sucky movies work for me if there's enough eye candy (the two Fast & Furious flicks come to mind, for example). I'm so excited about King Arthur that I've arranged child care so I can see a matinee on opening day. Between Clive, Ioan (Horation Hornblower!!) and Keira Knightley (who I liked a lot in PotC), my expectations for enjoying the movie are high, regardless of the quality of the movie itself.

Does that make any sense??

It does, it does. It so does. And also love Ioan and Keira. A lot.

*gets jitterly*

And you're the second person to recommend Croupier. I am so there.
