I really want to see that. Streep and Hoffman. It doesn't get any better than that. Tonight was movie night with the cuz. I wanted to see Doubt or Valkarie, but ended up seeing the Spirit.  Horrilbe piece of chit. I had trouble staying awake.

I too would like to see this movie.
I did watch Slumdog Millionare last week at Downtown West and it was extremely good. I highly recommend it.

I notice your sig is from another awesome Eastwood movie. I'm looking foward to seeing Gran Tarino too. I saw Doubt Thursday night. Thought provoking and great acting. About what you would expect.

PV, I just got home from "date night" with the wife and we say Gran Torino. It was absolutely OUTSTANDING. We both agreed that it was one of the best movies that we've seen in a few years. Clint is probably my all time favorite actor. The Unforgiven was one bada$$ movie, but I MAY have liked this one even better (I know, totally different genre, but what a great movie).

The character was a crotchety old retired blue collar worker that tinkered and fixed things. He always had a put down to any non white person and was burned out Catholic. Carol said I was younger version of that old crotchety bastard
