My first review for the wonderful film site The Dissolve went up today. The Dissolve is a relatively new site, but they have an amazing stable of writers as well as an incredible community of commenters. Knowledgeable, positive, great discussions and disagreements, civil and fun. The Dissolve has been doing great things, reviews, features, round-tables. Very pleased to be doing some stuff for them.
I wish Last Weekend, starring Patricia Clarkson, was better, however. Oy.
GREAT LAST LINE.
Tee hee! Thanks Bren!! It was so annoying!
Um, not to mention the “hides the newspaper”??? When was this film set, 1979???
hahahahahahahahahaha Bren, you kill me.
To be fair, there was iffy wifi around the palatial lake house, which seemed arbitrary as well – and yeah, like these big moguls could somehow live without internet connection? Or wouldn’t have heard about a 30 million dollar typo?
No.
and Bren – go over there and check out the 3 comments people have left so far. See what I mean about a great comments section? I’m laughing at almost every one of them.
I just commented over at Dissolve-sad you didn’t like the movie because I love some of the actors, but always happy I can view more of your reviews. Plus it sounds like they have great comments sections, so I am excited! I’m so happy when I am pointed to a new, interesting blog.
Yeah The Dissolve works hard to create a certain tone – in their reviews and features – which then spills over into the comments section. It’s very rare!
Have you seen the movie, Maureen?
No, not yet!
