OK, back to business

Light blogging until at least Monday night. I have to submit nominations for Cinemarati Awards by midnight Monday, and that means I have to stuff as many movies as I can into my brain by then. So far:

  • House of Flying Daggers - a spectacular first hour, followed by a draggy second hour that grows increasingly preposterous. But certainly one of the most beautiful films of the year

  • Hotel Rwanda - A wonderful film not about the genocide per se, but about one man who made a difference simply because it seemed like the thing to do. A great, powerful, moving film. don't miss it.



Tomorrow, The Aviator - three hours. OY! Then The Motorcycle Diaries and hopefully Spring Summer Fall Winter...and Spring.
