Are we having a round starting on Christmas day, I do hope so!!
Why do I have the feeling that I'll be the only one posting to that round?
(In Israel, we will be working on both December 25th and January 1.)
Fortunately I'm not reliant on the office computer; I'll be around. That's at least two of us. But my kids no longer wake me at an unearthly hour on Christmas Day, so it probably won't be early. |

Well, I'll be early (and probably start the thread).
Say, Koli, I was also thinking about doing a review with that scene from Casino Royale. What a great bit that was to watch!
(Got everyone so far!)

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
We are currently under two-feet-plus of snow here in Colorado. Had to shovel these reviews out from under the frozen flakes - hopefully you'll warm up to them.
One note on an obscure film:
Broken Rainbow is about how the U.S. gov't forced the Hopi Indians off of their ancestral homeland, and there is little hope of them regaining their land.

Inspired by Ali's previous comments I'd like to submit the following for your consideration.
FYC #259
Notes: William Shakespeare, an English Playwright of the 16th/17th Century (Elizabethan to Jacobean periods) wrote a play called "Hamlet". Considered the pinnacle of his dramatic writing it concerns the prevarication of a young prince attempting to avenge the murder of his father. It has been filmed a lot of times. Here are five of them.
Some further comments -
Marianne Faithfull played Ophelia opposite Nicol Williamson's Hamlet.
Olivier's version dispenses entirely with the characters of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern
Derek Jacobi played the Dane in the BBC TV version.
I hope that clears that up.  |
