Caught The Squid and the Whale last night at the Cumberland with Alison and Pavlina. A real spur-of-the-moment movie outing after we celebrated Pavlina's birthday dinner with Sarah at Saigon Sister. We wanted to see Jake and Heath in Brokeback Mountain but all screenings were sold out. Back to the film: Laura Linney is married to Jeff Daniels and they split up. The story follows the kids going back and forth between houses. Amazing performances by the whole family, although Jeff Daniels plays a pr*** and we didn't see enough of Laura Linney. Son #2 Frank is played by Owen Kline, son of Kevin and Phoebe Cates (he's got his mother's eyes). The soundtrack is sweet - just what you'd expect from the co-writer of The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Writer/director Noah Baumbach made a nice film about a sad subject (his friend Wes Anderson of Life Aquatic and Royal Tenenbaums fame produces). Alison is glad she didn't know that until afterward or else we might not have seen it. More movies on tap for this weekend.
N-E-1-4 Kong?
Brokeback Mountain? Family Stone?
