Killing Me Softly
The logic behind the title of the post is that i'm in a very romantic mood today & 'Killing Me Softly' by Perry Como is one of my favourite romantic ballads.
Haven't been able to download a decent web-based aggregator. But the search is on..
It rained today & the weather was really chilly all day, really romantic i must add.
Anyways, saw 'Finding Neverland' today & it was a brilliant film. The moment i think Johnny Depp has run out of roles, he comes out with a brilliant performance & manages to surprise me.
Last time he did that with 'Pirates Of The Carribean' which was an unlikely contender for the oscars last year considering the academy does not have a very high regard for films with comedic leading roles or for period costume dramas for that matter.
Some of my fave Johnny Depp movies are - Edward Scissorhands, Arizona Dream, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Nick Of Time, Finding Neverland.
Kate Winslet was ok but she couldn't pull off what she did in 'Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind'. The story is about the early 20th century playwright J.M Barrie, the author of Peter Pan, who finds inspiration from a bunch of children he comes across in a chance meeting & their mother(Winslet).
I've always had a special thing for period dramas in cinema. I feel filmmakers who can paint a picture on the canvas of a bygone era are artists in the truest sense of the word.
Did i mention the weather was really romantic today.
