Wow, it's interesting to know I'm not the only person who spent his New Year's Eve at the theater watching a less-than-stunning movie with his parents (I saw Something's Gotta Give. I didn't cry, but I certainly didn't fall out of my seat laughing at Jack Nicholson's naked butt, like much of the fifty-something audience did, for some reason).

I'm sorry, though, that Mona Lisa Smile didn't meet with your approval. You'd think with the incredible amount of talent in that movie, they'd be able to put something worth seeing together...

Oh God - Jack Nicholson's naked butt was one of the more painful things I have ever been forced to see. Although that wasn't New Year's. We've spent too many past New Year'ses watching painful movies as a family to do it again. So instead we ate dinner really late and went to bed. Even more exciting, isn't it. Glad you had an (at least partially) good holiday, Charlie.

alas, it is sad they couldn't put the acting talent to good use in 'mona lisa smile' ... but then again, julia roberts is kind of a tool, so it's not that unexpected, really.

glad you had a similarly enjoyable/bizarre new year's with the middle age folks (but sorry about jacko's ass).
