So, about that Les Mis trailer

Taking a break from Kristen Wiig week so I can just post about this delightful little trailer, which looks to be inspiring and heartwarming.  I'm very impressed by Anne Hathaway's singing chops here. Granted that those are them. Boy, I wonder why 19th century French peasants were so....MISERABLE! wah wah wah 

More Movie Hype: Letters to Juliet

So guess what? I just saw Amanda Seyfried in "Letters to Juliet." Unlike Prince of Persia, I saw this ONE! This is not my normal type of movie that I go and see, and the overall result is : Not Bad. This shows Amanda Seyfried playing the fiancee of Gael Garcia Bernal. Yup, tis true. So the movie is set mainly in Italy, and Amanda helps an older lady reconnect with a love from her past. The movie had some really interesting moments, which did surprise me. It also had moments that felt tacky. This is how I describe the script: Imagine listening to an orchestra playing Mozart, and then, randomly the violinist drops the instrument and there is a deep thud. So by that the movie goes really well, but then all of a sudden there is a moment that just makes you kind of twitch and think "Ick." I mean, it was fun to see, and that's why I say it was not bad. I rarely use the star system, but I will give this movie "3 out of 5 Stars." I wish I had little star icon...
