I just got back from seeing The Artist - that is the French-produced film which got 3 Golden Globes.
My daughters both really liked it. I'm not sure myself, I thought it bordered on being too clever at times. The dog was brilliant though.

Have just been to see 'War Horse'. Loved it! I think they'll be showing this many Christmases to come. And

Off the topic but on the small screen. Did anyone watch Birdsong, on Sunday night and find that they couldn't understand half the dialogue, due to whispering and loud music? I don't normally have a problem with music but dear me, they seemed to have some class act mumblers in that series.

Totally agree with you. The book is so blindingly good, how can they have made such a hash of the tv film?
