Heh. Yeah what can I do its her pick. From what I've heard from everyone its a real fantastic movie with a real nod to some of the great musicals of our time, so i'll keep my mind open.

Always dug Hugo Weaving but this may have been his greatest role. The dude owned every single scene he was in and completely mind ****ed everyone else involved.

Partly about jazz but yeah. I wanted to hate it because I really don't like being forced to like something that everyone else does or that award season and critics are saying I should like. I appreciate for what it was but I only need to see it once. It was good though. I might end up seeing it one more time because I went to a solo matinee instead of taking the old ball and chain with me which I will end up doing some time this weekend.

I thought it was pretty great but like DJ, I only need to see it once. They really nailed it with his response to her when she said she hated jazz though, I think I've given that speech verbatim almost ten times.

Totally agreed. I can watch it multiple times and still laugh my ass off.

I think it resonates with me so strongly because I was that person once and I never followed my dream...instead I started using heroin. So it really plugs at my heart strings. By far my favorite numbers are her audition and the lovely night number.
What are yours? |
