Love, Actually--I'd passed it by a few times, thinking I really didn't want the typical old romantic comedy. I'd heard good things though. It was really great. Maybe i was in the right mood but I laughed! I cried! I spent 3 bucks! What a cast. Against my will I remembered how damn charming Hugh Grant can be...he sort of plays the same guy but he is a charmer. I was struck by how strikingly differently beautiful Keira Knightley is (once again), how sensationally not-even-trying sexy Liam Neeson is, how classic Emma Thompson is. Oh, and Laura Linney, Colin Firth, Rowan Atkinson...and the kid who played the little boy was darling.

Then I watched An Education, with Peter Sarsgaard and Carey Mulligan. Emma Thompson was also in this one (all three I watched today had ties.) It was pretty good, but I've always like Peter Sarsgaard. About an Oxford-bound 16 year old who meets Peter's character and sort of changes plans.

Last I watched Kinsey, which was of course about Alfred Kinsey. Very good movie. It starred Liam Neeson and Laura Linney, and Sarsgaard was also in it, along with Chris O'Donnell, Timothy Hutton, John Lithgow, Oliver Platt, and Tim Curry.

Quite a fruitful movie foray today, I must say.
