Movies

Sunday, December 9, 2007

Recently, I saw two very different but great movies. First was August Rush with that fabulous child star Freddie Highmore. Wonderful movie, very mystical and inspiring. Whoever was the musical director blended rock with classical seamlessly. Kerri Russell is luminous.

TodayI saw The Golden Compass...one of the best roles I've ever seen Nicole Kidman in. And Daniel Craig, yum!!! My major complaint was not enough air time with him. I also questioned one thing about the story, but won't say anything here for fear of spoiling the plot for others. Of course, the special effects were fabulous, particulary the armored polar bear. I hope they don't delay on the sequel the way the producers did on Chronicles of Narnia. The movies need to come out like Harry Potter, one a year.

But both movies are 'must' buys for me when they come out on DVD; I also have to get the CD for August Rush for the music. :) Carol
