I've got all of Palin's travel shows on DVD. I love them. Loved "Long Way Round" as well.
Sahara is really good.

I'll probably see it very soon. his other travel documentaries are great.
a bit of a different topic, but did you get to see any of the episodes of Terry Jones' Barbarians?

Can't remember. I know I've seen his medieval times doc's on either the History channel or Netflix. I don't think I've seen Barbarians. I'll have to check it out.

I'm a sucker for this type of film. I know I saw first one, and thought I had already seen 2nd one, but as plot kept churning along, I kept feeling more and more in dark, which is both good and appropriate for this narrative. For sci-fi thriller, I think these are great flicks. For something resembling good drama, these are not so good. Gotta be willing to take a few leaps of faith to have this sort of film work for you by the end.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
Just watched "Skin."
Skin2008PG-13106 minutes
Both her father (Sam Neill) and mother (Alice Krige) are white, but Sandra Laing (Sophie Okonedo) is born with dark skin -- a complex problem in the era of South African apartheid that soon drives a wedge into the family in this poignant drama based on a true story. Though her parents fight to have the government classify her as white, Sandra grows up in a divided world, and experiences her parents can't understand make her question her identity.
It was very good.

Jane Eyre.
Excellent.
Minor quibble. The story is set in Yorkshire so why film it in the Peak District? The landscapes of both are distinctive and quite dissimilar.
On the plus side, it was mostly shot at Haddon Hall where I've been, so that means Judi Dench and I have walked on the same floors
:bow:

:bow:Antichrist 3.5/5
The Tree of Life 1.5/5
I was so disappointed in The Tree of Life, I had such high hopes.
Harry Potter and the DH PT2 2/5

I saw The Descendents.
My judgement:
- Riddled with standard cliches & gratuitous plot devices.
- Oscar buzzworthy acting by Clooney isn't.
Note:
My opinion is worth what you paid for it.
Mrs Rev really liked it.

"Delicatessen"
Awesome movie.
Revently watched: Cowboys & Aliens (2011).
Barely worth the time it took to watch it.
Seriously, how do you mess up a concept like that... :sarcastic
