"We Need To Talk To Kevin". We need to talk about this movie!! Don't waste your time. Tilda Swinton (strange lady with big ugly feet) was nominated for some kind of supporting award and John C. Reilly was in it too........Big waste of 112 minutes..

Tilda Swinton reminds me of the male version of Gwynth Paltrow.....except she's a female.

Went to see "What To Expect When You Are Expecting" this afternoon. It was much better than I thought it would be although it is definitely not a "must see". Wait for it to come out on Netflix.

Saw this one today. Excellent movie. Charlize Theron and Kirsten Stewart both turn in stellar performances in a well written/directed/cast movie which is told from the perspective of the wicked witch. The special effects are outstanding. It is rated PG-13---I think had it been rated R it would have been a darker (and perhaps better) movie but they would have lost part of their potential audience. If you are looking for something to do this weekend I suggest adding this to your list.

I'd watch Charlize Theron read the phone book.
She has an interesting background...

Theron became a US citizen in 2007, while retaining her South African citizenship.
Her father died on 21 June 1991, after he was shot by Theron's mother. Theron's father, an alcoholic,[SUP][6][/SUP] physically attacked her mother and threatened both women while drunk. The shooting was legally adjudged to have been self-defense and her mother faced no charges.[SUP][7]
