Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

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.

Hmmm. I've been meaning to watch Winter's Bone. Guess I'll move it to the top of my Netflix queue.

It's good, Rayne. Ozark noir! And she's basically in every scene of the movie. I can't think of one she's not in.

I never saw Winters Bone either, but I heard she was excellent in it. Still, I wish they had picked an actress who is still a teenager. I think one of the most horrific things in the book is how young all the players in the Hunger Games are.

Punishingly Intricate
She was excellent in Winter's Bone but I'd had my heart set on the girl from True Grit getting the part! Especially after discussing it with my physical therapist last night.

Me too. Friends and I were just discussing the books last night. I earned 3 new toasters passing my copies around.

Because books.
I initially thought Steinfeld was too young, since she's just fourteen (although maybe fifteen by now?), but the good thing is, she would age into the role pretty well if they make all three.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
From reading around, it looks like this guy [link] is in the lead to play Peeta and has said casting someone 14 would make it weird for him to do.

Oh, I'd prefer him to Alex Pettyfer, who I know nothing about.

I have never seen him in anything, but he was in Beastly and I Am Number Four earlier this year.
