Okay, you're going to have to forgive me for this one, because it is hella' late. I actually saw the movie about two weeks ago, but I didn't feel like posting. However, I realized I haven't posted anything up in this piece, for a long time.
I can't leave you guys shorted... So, in brief...
Kate Winslet does deserve the Oscar, she will surely get for this. I think Lena Olin should have been nominated too and... Because of the nature of a good chunk of the film, this was my thought process, during said chunk:
SPOILER!!
highlight the inviso-text ->*eww!jailbait!thatwaskindahoteww!kiddieporrrn!*
Anyway, the movie itself was good in an afternoon arthouse kinda' way. That is, filmed well, patiently unfolding story, moral ambiguity. It's a worthy effort.
Nothing earthshattering, mind you, but good. Oh, and uh, Ralph Fiennes bored me.
Do the arthouse, afternoon @ E Street, thing.PARENTS: If you've highlighted the invisotext, You know what's up. KEEP THE KIDDIES HOME

hmm
i watched enough of kate this year. lol
I enjoyed it, but couldn't really get engrossed in the relationship between the two. It just didn't feel all that intense that it would cause the guy to angst over it as an adult. Still, I liked it and Kate Winslet was great as always. Not as good as in Revolutionary Road, though.

You know? Me neither. I think that's why I was more detached about this story. And not so enthused about posting about it.
I thought David Gross did alright, but because of that spoilery element, I was kinda' skeeved out.
I don't know, maybe I've been brainwashed by the double-standard. :P
