Re: What are you watching tonight?
Watched 'Chronicle' at the cinema today.
Really really good. Very enjoyable, and really quite dark in some places.
Someone should probably tell D'Angelo that we found Wallace, though.

Saw it the other day and enjoyed it myself. Turned up with zero expectation as I'd never heard of it and only got asked by my mate 20 minutes before, but it was well worth it. As you say, dark in places, but also pretty funny as well.Verbal wrote:Watched 'Chronicle' at the cinema today.

Don't know how many of you saw the first game between Boro and Sunnerlan, but it was, without a doubt, one of this season's outstanding games.
Hoping for more of the same tonight.
BTW - the good, good people have sent me Appropriate Adult. Yeay or neay?

I watched it, but didn't think it was that great.

Cineworld for 'The Artist'.
Loved it. Funny and poignant homage to the silents... goodly number in as well - often just a sprinkling for the 6.00 pm house...

Been watching Apocolypse: The Rise of Hiltler on the National Geographic Channel.
The story is what you would expect but what is remarkable is that the footage has been digitally remastered (I think)to be in colour. Some of the scenes showing Hitler's early life and the WWI trenches are really incredible. Well worth a look if you interested in this and have Sky / SkyGO.

Just watched the full five hour (fast-forwarded a few bits) BBC version of Pride and Prejudice again. Top notch production from the Beeb.

I have tried with Jane Austen, really I have. The books ('did' Persuasion for Level & Northanger Abbey for A Level), the audio tapes, the TV & the films and I cannot abide it ... any of it. 'Fast Forward' for me would take me from the opening to the credits and I'd still be bored.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Only fast forwarded because I know it so well Bobo. P & P is in a class of its own. Sense and Sensibility I found hard work without too much real story. The rest, Emma, ( which is probably J.A' second best work) and the two you mention aren't in the same class at all. I've seen other film versions and have the Kierra Knightley DVD but none touch the BBC version by a mile. I've read the book half-a-dozen times, each time gaining more insight into Jane Austen. A real classic for me although, I admit, not everyone's cup of tea.Full of admiration Tango.
