So far, I’ve only seen 4: Cinderella Man, Pride & Prejudice, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and The Chronicles of Narnia. Clearly, I need to get cracking.
I have seen… none.
The Constent Gardener – Good
Pride and Prejudice – Best version I have seen
Shopgirl – I liked it
Though several of the others sounded good to me.
I have seen … wow, I actually saw one of those (Narnia).
We don’t get out to movies much …
More than I do, Dave. More than I do.
