Do so! The "pupil" scene alone is worth it. And any movie with Jennifer Connely in it is definitely worth it.

Without giving away spoilers...there is one scene in that movie that annoy me's and is pivotal to the entire movie.... and that is the non treatment...that would never happen as a doctor takes the hippocratic oath, and while there are no recourses for going against it any doctor worth his or her salt would not.

 

"Whatsoever house I may enter, my visit shall be for the convenience and advantage of the patient; and I will willingly refrain from doing any injury or wrong from falsehood, and (in an especial manner) from acts of an amorous nature, whatever may be the rank of those who it may be my duty to cure, whether mistress or servant, bond or free."

I have not really seem much of interest recently but over  the weekend I watched EXODUS which I enjoyed immensely. Its a Hollywood blockbuster and not historically accurate, but its good entertainment and I would recommend it.

 

However if possible you need to watch it in 3D to really do it justice.

Anyone seen Paddington?

Got dragged along with kids yesterday to watch it. The kids talked for 1 minute about it after leaving the movie. It's forgotten now.

 

They still talk about big hero 6

 

Paddington story of bringing the bear into human society not well scripted. Like nobody noticed there is a talking bear.

Pity, I'd been looking forward to it! Oh, well, my kids are too old for it anyway.

My friend, who is a female vicar in Dibley the South of England, thought it was spiffing.

Read mixed reviews. Seems people of our generation will like it!

My, my, my...

What superb movie-making

Haunting, intense, drama

 

And what a performance by Mark Ruffalo - did not expect that!
