Just saw the Intouchables. A French movie based on a true story-subtitled. Fantastic and touching. I think it's only in LA and NY right now, but it's supposedly broken records in Europe that Hollywood has never broken. If you can find it see it. Heard there's a Hollywood version in the works but see the original if you can.

Not a movie, but after a long wait, we finally got the series Downton Abbey. It was great.

Just finished watching the second series. Great fun. Maggie Smith gets the best lines!

Haven't gone to a movie in decades, so I watch the trailers instead. {#Yes}

Saw "Melancholia" yesterday on netflix. Not sure if i liked it, but it was beautifully shot and it makes you think about stuff a lot.

Did you see it in 3D? Not a fan of 3D so I will most likely pass on that.

No. Plain old 2-D for us too.

I like DA but I felt season 2 got a bit tedious.

The bear should have been in the wild, the cats should have been in a place where they had room to roam. Animals are not entertainment, they are living creatures.

Yeah Free the Animals. That worked out really well here in Ohio a few months ago.

MS was of course excellent, but I didn't find Margaret Thatcher to be that interesting. She certainly was ambitious, and sure sounded just like the Republicans of today.

We saw this movie also:

It was kind of sappy and absurd and a solid PG, but a good family movie. The little girl is more than adorable, the story is based on a true one, but was somewhat annoying to me.

I kept shouting at the screen FREE THE ANIMALS! especially the poor sad bear.

Finally saw this last week, too. Meryl Streep, as usual, is a tour de force.

EDIT: I thought the direction was a bit spotty, however. Not having intently followed events in Great Britain during her tenure, at times it was difficult to tell reality from her advancing (post-PM) dementia.
