This weekend was full of movie-watching. I finally saw my two most recent netflix rentals (Bridge on the River Kwai and Full Metal Jacket), plus Big Fish (which I borrowed from my parents) and Brokeback Mountain (at the theater with my cousin and cousin-in-law). Quick thoughts on each:

I don't always love Kubrick, but I loved this one. Less bizarre and more cerebral with about a thousand fabulous lines.

I LOVED this movie. Spent the last 15 minutes of it sobbing, but it was beautiful and quirky and highly entertaining.

Well acted with some extremely funny parts and I cried at the end, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed by the plot. Other than them being both men, it was a fairly ordinary star-crossed lovers story.

Absolutely fantastic movie. Thought-provoking, complex characters, unpredictable plot, and surprisingly funny. If the movie was a boy, I would marry him.
