I thought so, too, Abby. And like I said, it overcame my mother's eyerolling and she got into it too. The Long Way Down sounds dirty. Not that that's a bad thing.ETA: I had Bravo last year...how'd I miss that?Too many channels.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I love the Long Way Round. It's on my tivo wishlist permanently, so that I can rewatch it a lot.

Newsflash: Originality is dead.
I found this disheartening: " The Taking of Pelham One Two Three starts shooting later this year." Although not quite as bad as when they were talking about remaking The Women.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Pelham doesn't sound like a good remake? I mean, it's a decent thriller that's slightly slow now and can be adapted pretty well. They better hurry before they fix South Ferry, though.

To me, the NYC-in-the-70s vibe is so strong, I can't imagine the remake.

OMG, I take it back. This is even worse: Tony Scott's LA-set revamp of that quintessential New York movie, The Warriors.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We loved Long Way Round. Lots of Ewan for me, motorcycles for the DH and exotic locales and interesting folk for the both of us. It boosted my Ewan love to the stratosphere, and it was already pretty high up there.

Sorry, Charley..no offense. You seem cool...I'm just not always good with names. Satellites rule the world now if Russian border guards know who Ewan is.
