Austenland is ridiculous and rather demeans the Brits but its good ridiculous fun.

In Bruges should be better known, so quirky and fun. If Colin Farrell couldn't get awards recognition for his work in this I despair of him ever getting any. He's wonderful. Love Roman Holiday! Both Audrey and Gregory Peck are effortlessly charming and the setting is captivating.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128401155527497521.post-19757088076906641892015-12-24T15:20:53.695+08:002015-12-24T15:20:53.695+08:00I love Roman Holiday-so beautiful and such a bitte...I love Roman Holiday-so beautiful and such a bittersweet ending.

One of Colin Farrell's best performances. He was just outstanding. So is the rest of the cast. And yes, darkly funny is a perfect way to describe it.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.com
