My Week With Marilyn

Not happy with this.  I like Michelle Williams.  I think she is a doll truly.  But I didnt like her as Marilyn Monroe.  And I am not a Monroe fan but all I saw was Michelle Williams NOT Monroe.  It was silly.  I didnt see the point in the movie.  Hasnt she had enough grief over her life to make this movie.  The more I think about it, it was tasteless to make this flick. 

Posting

I cant always post every day...........That would be like watching a movie everyday.  I guess I could write about a movie I have already seen, but then I would have to think back and then pick one I have seen and write about it.........Soooo, yeah, not doing that now because I am tired.  Oscars tomorrow...........

Hugo

I must of missed something when I watched 'Hugo". I was cute. I liked the very ending when they did the old times movies screening. I just dont think it should be Best Picture. I got a little lost during some of it and really wanted to find out what happened to his father. Did I miss it?

Moneyball

"Moneyball' was not enjoyable for me. Jonah was not funny. Brad was boring and looked old. I dont think he is going to age very well probably because he doesnt take care of himself. I did like the economics fundamentals of the movie and enjoyed that their is some kind of intelligence added to sports but overall I thought the film was dry.

War Horse

I enjoyed 'War Horse". I liked that the horse traveled to many different places and encountered various people who all tied together. I also enjoyed the human aspect between the other horse. Very endearing to me.

The Artist

"The Artist' is a silent movie. The acting was so good though that they didnt need to talk. Every once in awhile a few words were displayed but you never need words when love is involved.

The Descendants

Another Clooney movie. 'The Descendants". I do not believe it is all that for all these awards and nominations. I know he is in the Boys Club so they have to "nod" him every year but make something good Clooney.

Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

I really wanted to see more of Sandra in 'Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close' but that was fine because the young man in the movie carried the whole film. He needs a nominations instead of Clooney or Pitt. I still get very emotional at 9/11 films. Time has past but it will never be forgotten. RIP the souls who passed away.....

Beginners

‎'Beginners' is another movie about love and finding out who you are. I love when a movie sneaks love in and then it hits you at the end and you realize "yay, that is what its about".

Midnight In Paris

'Midnight In Paris" was a genius of a movie. I am not a Woody Allen fan but really loved this little gem. I was excited each time Gil went back in time to the 20's. I sat in anticpation for who he would encounter next and how the interaction would take place and play out. I think I would have been good friends with Zelda.

Oscars

With the Oscar coming out soon and being a movie lover, I thought I would start a blog about the movies I watch.  I normally try to watch all the movies that are nominated for an Oscar.  Yes, it is hard to do giving only a month to do it in and I have recently moved to a smaller city that doesn't host many movie watching opportunities. So without further ado...Welcome to Caffeine and a Movie....Enjoy!!!!
