...but somehow I don't think I will pay to watch that one.But see if you can catch the Creatures - they come from YOUR part of the world, anyway.
"A Beautiful Mind" is a 'must see' Vic - get someone else to pay but make sure you check it out.
Peter Jackson film, Kate Winslets best role

Kate's first film role... she was wonderful in it.Jackson & Walsh created a very sensitive and unusual take on a difficult subject, one which, in other hands, could have been repellent and exploitative.
A Beautiful Mind, OTOH, I found totally bogus, a superficial and calculating exercise in Hollywood crassness...in fact, the very epitome of what HC so deftly avoided.
Peter Jackson's flashes of surrealism in the film (i.e. Orson Welles) was great fun.
Very contrived. If they wanted to be true to his story, why excluded his homosexual affairs? Oh, I know why! I wouldn't have gone to see it!
