I had really big expectations going into this movie and it really didn't let me down at all. It's the best I've seen this year. But I still need to see Revolutionary Road and I feel like that will take the cake for me. |

Quixotic, surreal, touching, melancholic and even a jet of black comedy running through. One man's promise to his friend that he should be buried in his birthplace produces a gem of a movie. First half hour is a little loose but once the 'journey' begins, you are sucked right in. Brilliant cinematography of the Texan landscape by celebrated British cinematographer Chris Menges.

It's school holidays in Australia at the moment, so I have had a triple threat of crap films: High School Musical 3, Twilight and Bedtime STories.... but I have been sowing my wild oats on DVD with Thriller: A Cruel Picture, Ilsa: The Wicken Warden, The Cabinet of Dr Caligari (the original), Long Weekend and Fair Game (the Australian one, not that piece of **** with a Baldwin in it).
