Monday, September 10, 2007 Here is a wee review of the five movies we saw at the festival this year. When Did You Last See Your Father? Wonderful movie with Jim Broadbent and Colin Firth. Jim plays Colin's dad who steals the spotlight and embaresses his son, but by the end of the movie you still care about him. The actor that plays young Colin was excellent. I cried at the end. Then She Found Me Oh hey... lookee here... Colin Firth again. How did that happen? Heh. Helen Hunt directed and starred in this film about a 39 year old woman dealing with a separation, wanting a child and meeting her real mother. The dialogue had a jilting, abrupt quality to it... very much Helen's style... which was odd to hear everyone conversing like that. The story is great though and Bette Midler was awesome. I cried at the end. The Passage There were tunnel scenes that I had my wrap pulled up to my eyes for. Scary.  Jane Austen Book Club This was by far my favorite movie for the weekend. Esp being a Jane Austen fan. Each member of the book club had a story going on and some of them reflected an Austen plot. This film was warm, funny and charming. I esp liked Emily Blunt (from The Devil Wears Prada)... her character is a Francophile and wearst the cutest outfits. Hugh Dancy is quite nice also. Nothing is Private I hardly have words for this film. I was completely uncomfortable throughout the entire thing. There are scenes that are shocking and horrible. My only consolation is the young actress was not 13 as she is in the film, but 19. It is a well made film... the writing, the acting the plot. But there are too many terrible things, I could have gone without seeing it... and esp wish it hadn't been the movie we ended the festival with.

They are both just ridiculously adorable and romantic and dreamy! By  Tina, at 11/9/07 4:53 PM I second Tina's comment. By  ljc, at 18/9/07 10:10 AM I just saw this movie...I love EMily Blunt's clothes and hair! (Wondering if I could pull off that hair...) If you check my blog, you can see how I took a photo with Hugh Dancy and he's wearing the same shirt he did in the movie :) Sorta funny..."borrowing" clothes from his wardrobe, how convenient!
