Ok, yeah, that explains it.. I was looking for it at the art house, and like PDL, it's kind of feeding off the multiplexes like a drowning fish.

I saw The Hours finally, it was pretty much what I expected, kind of mellow dramatic but entertaining. I wish they would have gotten in to what makes these women so depressed a little more.

A suggestion: copy all the text before you hit the submit key into Microsoft Word and run that mother fucking spell check.

spell check wouldn't catch that, though.

The movie was quite MELODRAMATIC (sorry, just felt like being a dick), but it definitely sticks with you. It's really a movie for women, not exactly a chick flick, but it's not very appealing from the male point of view. The makeup was very good. Julianne Moore looks very old and they somehow made Nicole Kidman ugly. Whodathunkit?

EDIT: And what's up with John C. Reilly playing an asshole in all of the 500 movies he's in this year?

The Hours - The insensitive husband who just doesn't get it
Chicago - The insensitive husband who just doesn't get it
The Good Girl - The insensitive husband who just doesn't get it
Gangs of New York - The jerkoff police officer who turns his back on the old gang

Chicago - The insensitive husband who just doesn't get it

He's plenty sensitive in Chicago, he's just kinda dumb.  He's also the only likeable character in the whole film, but ends up getting shit on in the end.  I kept wanting him to show up with a gun and shoot that bitch.

I never actually saw the film, that's just what I heard. Sorry.

Piece of shit?  I loved this movie.  I thought Streep's acting was especially outstanding.  She managed to capture someone on the edge totally real.  Having had a mother going through similar problems, trust me when I say she nailed it.  Julianne Moore's character was under-developed...but that's what made her character strong.  She was so void of anything...her life was empty.  Nicole Kidman did an excellent job as well.  It seems, though, that if she wouldn't have been completely re-done for the movie, physically, she wouldn't have been taken as seriously.  Ed Harris over-acted the smallest bit, but was also pretty good.  I loved how for each story the dialogue type was changed.  For the 1923 story, there is this very high-society like tone to it.  The 50's story had the "Gee-golly gosh" feel to it.  And the 2001 story was very supercharged and well...modern really...I was completely emotionally envolved in this film and it...wow...
Bottom line: I really liked it.  

Maybe Mr. Gold Trumpet could give a bit of his opinions on this film?

Shes really good at these rolls
