saw: pride & prejudice
Keira Knightley is expectedly luverly but I may have to recuse myself from commenting on the movie as a whole. Truth is, I find Jane Austen's drawing-room sensibility to be so overstuffed with innumerable sighs and a general, unrelenting "chaise-longueur" that I am frequently rendered narcoleptic in the presence of her work. And it's not like I'm some dude's-dude, "Movies For Guys Who Like Movies"-TiVoing adrenaline addict. Epistolary handwringing just strikes me as an un-cinematic motivation for romantic intrigue. Okay, I'm a boor. Grade: B-
