I met Dan for brunch today. He suggested going to a movie, and explained that I wanted to head right back home and resume hacking. He really knew how to twist my arm. The movie he wanted to see was The Brothers Grimm. How can I possibly turn down a chance to see a new Terry Gilliam film on the big screen? And it was showing at the Century 21 theatre, one of the nicest theatres in these parts.
As usual with Terry Gilliam films, it was visually stunning. Matt Damon and Heath Ledger were great as the brothers, but I thought Lena Headey stole the show. Jonathan Pryce had a role reminiscint of his performance as the Right Honorable Horatio Jackson in tThe Adventures of Baron Munchausen.
Saw the trailers for both “Corpse Bride” and “Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit” again; I can hardly wait to see them.
