Skyfall All Time UK Box Office Number 1...with help from Batman?

I love it!

You're so right about all the cleverly masked plot parallels - I was flabbergasted to read it spelled out like this in a compare and contrast.

:clap:

I saw two films this year, probably my favourite films
Take Shelter & We Need to Talk About Kevin - my husband and I can argue endlessly about the female lead roles in the films. I very much relate to Tilda Swintons self-absorbed and overly analytical character (knowing full well motherhood isn't what it's cracked up to be) and my husband loved Jessica Chastain's strong and "supportive" wife/mother role. It always brings us to city chick vs country chick, super intelligent vs average, university educated vs not, religion.
Does it make it easier to stand up for what you believe in when you are kind of ignorant of alternative views etc geek

Thanks for the kind words.


Haven't seen Take Shelter but I absolutely loved We Need To Talk About Kevin - I'm very much with you on being all for Tilda, but a great point about seeing it from other folks point of view. I'm notoriously bad for putting myself into someone else's shoes when I'm having a heated debate (normally 'cos I'm always right...hahaha!) but I love how a film can change your outlook on something so fundamental.

I think it must be out on DVD soon. I've only ever seen Michael Shannon in Boardwalk Empire, so its gonna be weird seeing him on screen not playing a complete nut for a change! biggrin
