open casting call for moviegoers
Mer and I thought it was so good we're willing to see Lost in Translation again with other like-minded folks. It's only at the Shoreline now.
Other movies we feel we need to see sometime:
Seabiscuit: yeah, it's all done through hazy filters and maybe sepia-tinged schmaltz. But we've heard it's got solid performances all round, and we're definitely Chris Cooper fans ever since we saw Lone Star.
thirteen: it looks like an after-school special to me, or at least a Partnership for a Drug-Free America ad. But Holly Hunter is usually pretty good, when she's not playing an accident fetishist.
The Magdalene Sisters: one of those movies that'll be really hard to watch -- who doesn't love a good night out watching atrocities of the Catholic Church? -- but it's actually the movie I'm most interested in seeing for some reason.
Whale Rider: so many people have given us so many positive blurbs about this movie that I figure we have to see it eventually. Gave one or two of them shivers.
And yes, Lost in Translation -- I already have a soft spot for it.
