Io sono l'amore (2009)
Artsy Fartsy Stink
Boring. Seriously.
Trying to muster up a scintilla of sympathy or even interest for the sadness of the very, very rich was simply beyond me. Who cares about a single one of these spoiled, empty, selfish people? And yes, I include Edo, who'd rather die than live in a world where his mama might have found some happiness. A good score does not make up for bad (excuse me, clichéd) lighting, boring, trite dialog and a message (excuse me, situation) telegraphed in by Western Union.
I Am Bubkis. Blech.
Two hours of dead brain cells I'll never get back.
Sons & Daughters (2006)
Missing Cast Member
Why isn't Trevor Einhorn listed as Henry Walker (Cameron's son)? He's a major cast member and as deadpan funny as Henry as he was playing Frederick Crane (Frasier's son) on Frasier. Everyone else is listed on IMDb but him.
The only way to find him is by doing an episode listing guide - but that doesn't make much sense since he's been in every episode since the show started a few weeks ago.
The really strange thing is that he wasn't listed as a cast member when Frasier was actually on the air - I checked after laughing my head off at the "Bar Mitzvah" episode.
I guess it makes sense that he might have been listed as a "guest star" on Frasier since he was only in occasional episodes, but not on Sons & Daughters since he's a major cast member.
Any idea why this might be so?
Henry VIII (2003)
Couldn't they find someone younger and not pregnant for Anne?
Good lord - the instant I saw Helena Bonham Carter appear as Anne in the first episode, I thought two things: one, she is definitely looking her "nearly forty" age, and two, she's at least four months pregnant! No one could miss her dress sticking out to *there* even if they tried, despite the voluminous material.
I knew it wasn't my imagination when I found this in her biography:
"Delivered her first child, a boy, Billy Ray, with boyfriend Tim Burton on October 6, 2003"
That would have been just after shooting Henry VIII. I've enjoyed Carter's work over the years, but still - there are a zillion terrific English actresses who could have done (and looked!) the part equally as well.
