true but you get a much better idea what they felt when you have no idea what the hell the somalis are talking about!

(Friends have had same issue)
We had that problem, but finally found a copy with the subtitles hard-wired in.

Wait until you see Chiwetel Ejiofor..............

Recently watched:

Inside Llewin Davis - good film altho if long slow thinking flicks are not your thing then maybe avoid. Great old 60'd folk tunes

August - Osage County - great film, adapted from a play. Star cast blitzed by Meryl Streep. She was amazing, Julia Roberts also a standout.

Blue Jasmine - great film, Cate Banchett was awesome, altho some may find it harder to watch or not buy in to the whole experience of her history. A solid Woody Allen film.

That's the first decent review I've read for that August - Osage jobby.......... mind you, I have been in anti-Streep mode for some years now.

I love the Coen brothers so I'll be there for Inside Llewyn Davis......

As a further twist, I'll offer up de Niro being ruined by anything in recent years that attempts to be a comedy.

I don't get the Cage-hate......... I know he's not Olivier but.......... Raising Arizona, Face/Off, Kick Ass and that Port of Call - New Orleans Lieutenant jobby (sorry - I can never remember the actual title). Even Con Air had its moments..............

Yeah, in recent years I suppose - but hasn't he earned the right to relax and have a bit of fun? Off the top of my head, he is in about eight of my all-time Top 20............

I watched Blue Jasmine recently too and enjoyed it. Also Blackfish - good documentary movie.
