Buffy ,'Get It Done'
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.
I just got back from a free screening of The Fall, starring Lee Pace and directed by the guy who did The Cell. The premise is that Lee Pace is bedridden in a hospital, and he starts telling this story to a girl with a broken arm, and the story sort of shifts and evolves as she gets into it. It's cute. The girl is adorable and totally hilarious. She's either a brilliant actress or just so naturally cute that anything she says is gold.
Also, Lee Pace has got ARMS. Dude.
Emma Watson's official website says that filming on HPHBP has finished and that they will update with promo pictures and trailers as they become available.
ooh, found maybe half a dozen clips on YT of the Fall and it looks gooood.
From what little I saw, big fat Word on the little girl, P-C.

It was generally neat. Good but not great. The story-within-the-story is mostly deliberately cheesy nonsense, which is sort of disappointing. But the relationship between Lee Pace and the girl is solid, and that's the real point of the movie.
The girl is really funny. She cracks you up and breaks your heart. She's a very believably naive child.
I was a little underwhelmed by some of the fantasy stuff, but from the premise, I understand that's not the point. I did like that even when in the story, it was still very much in the room, like when the princess chick is fidgeting and Lee tells her to go pee.
Found a promo for it too, and am afraid that it just spoiled the plot of the whole damned movie.

Yeah, there are a lot of cute bits like that. What I really liked about the movie was that although it starts out as a story he's telling her, it becomes a story shared between them.

A trailer I watched last night, which may have been the one I watched weeks ago when I first heard of it, did seem to spoil the whole movie, but I had forgotten what I was spoiled about when I saw the movie. There isn't a whole lot of plot to the movie, anyway. And what's also fun is that it's from the perspective of the girl, so you don't really understand all that's going on with Lee Pace at first, and you have to piece it all together from things people around him are saying (and what he says) that she doesn't really comprehend.
