I watched one called The Legend Of Lucy Keyes. Not a bad show, based on a true story about a girl that was murdered 250 years ago. Her ghost comes back and exposes some crooked goings-on. It was a little more than fair, better than some Ive seen lately.

We saw Three Days to Kill - it was the most violent chick flick I have ever seen, except for maybe Brave Heart
I rented that once and my husband fell asleep - he said it was a chick flick.
well, also we saw The Hobbit, which was amazing, and The Giver, also good if you read that.

I can't wait to see that!

My last movie watched was St Vincent with Bill Murray.
Pretty good, SO weird how different he sounds!

Lucy was the other movie we watched yesterday, right before St Vincent! It could have been sooooo much better!

Cool show. I saw another George Pal flick, When Worlds Collide last night. Pretty good show, not bad special effects for that day and age. Thats one they should have made a sequel to, the book had a sequel After Worlds Collide. Where after they land on the new planet, they find the Russians landed on the other side and they go to war.

That sounds pretty interesting, actually.

The books were very good. Kind of prophetic, they were written in the early 1930's.

I watched Truman last night. Good performances by all, Gary Sinuse may have been a little young for the part, but he did a good job as Truman.

Salt For Svantia. A silent Russian documentary from 1930 about a village in the mountains of Russia. These people were really backwards, no roads going to their village, they didnt have hardly anything. Strange beliefs, they believed when a person died they would banish pregnant women of the village to the wilderness to have their baby. One woman was kicked out and had her baby but wild dogs ate it. Salt was a luxury, they couldnt get much because of no roads. they would save urine for the livestock to drink for the salt content. A brutal primitive life, they were constantly being attacked by barons from the lowlands for taxes, cattle, etc. It ended on a happy note, I guess, their great and glorious leader Josef Stalin had a road built into the village. The photography was good, ahead of its time, and the soundtrack music was cool. Kind of rough and brutal, but all in all not a bad little movie.

Wolverine: Samurai. It was the Japanese version, so a lot of the Japanese wasn't translated into English like it probably was in the American version... at least it was good practice. I got the gist of it.
