The picture is one of unremitting darkness and ignorance with the central character a young girl trying to take care of her family the only real moment of redmeption. Terrific though.

It was a terrific movie! I recently watched another movie situated in another part of the US that isn't often portrayed in popular film (Upstate NY) called Frozen River. Lead actress was also outstanding.

what a depressing movie
April Bride (2009) - IMDb

"rise of a foot soldier" left me numb.that's what i call a gangster film

Last night I watched a French/German/UK co-production of a 19th century story which combined elements of Dickens, Hardy, Zola and others, called Verborgenes Feuer. Beautifully acted and well-paced.

And it did have Sophie Marceau as the female lead, another of those beautiful and sexy French women who can act everyone else off the screen.

'Nuff said.

Watched fan boys and grown ups. Didn't think much of grown ups, Fan boys was ok if your a star wars fan.

The next last film you see might be the film you saw before the last one: remakes are all the rage according to an article in today's Observer -can you believe a remake of Don't Look Now where the excuse is as follows:
"The original was very atmospheric, so we'll provide a little more of the narrative that audiences expect," producer Mark Gordon said.

I can't think of a director whose visual sense and editing style is so individual as Nicolas Roeg, and I can handle all sorts of 'narratives' Mr Gordon! A remake is an insult -not just to Roeg, but to me as well...

That film scared the living shite out of me when I was kid, and thinking back, still gives me a bit of a shiver.
Can't see a remake having the same effect!

I hated this movie...to me - one of the most disappointing endings in a movie of this nature.

..(not to mention, the whole thing plays like a bad television movie)
