Two more movies

Swedish movie “Tur och retur” felt like a “Parent trap” rip-off and a bad one, very predictable. Then I watched “Becoming Jane” and it felt like a cheaper version of “Pride and prejudge” (2005), never really appreciated Keira Knightley before but she is a better actor than that Anne chick, and Rosamund Pike is better than Anna Maxwell Martin (still can’t believe she won BAFTA best actress over Gillian Anderson in “Bleak House” Gillian was way better!). Dull and pretty eventless (like my life), better off watching “Pride and prejudge” one more time.

Best was Julie Waters, but I just started thinking of Brenda Blethyn… All the characters were so similar to P&P and maybe that was sort of the point, to understand where the stories and people in Janes books come from but it felt like they had all sat down and watched P&P and studied it and based every facial expression from it.
Love Maggie but she was barely in the movie…
