Movies Watched in 2008

1. Atonement -- Very good. I think I liked it better than the book, but I need to read the book again.

2. Juno -- Loved it.

3. Hairspray -- Not nearly as good as the original movie. I think I would have liked it more had I not seen the original movie.

4. Jesus Camp -- I learned two things. First, evangelical Christians are batshit crazy. Second, I'm never moving to Missouri. Also: It's very scary to me that these people vote.

5. Ma Vie en Rose -- Very good. It came out in 1997, and I've wanted to see it for a while.

6. 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days -- OMG. Really. It was such an incredible movie, and yet so painful to watch. I actually called my mother about 20 minutes into, and was furious. No woman should ever, ever have to have an abortion in a hotel room, or sleep with someone in order to have said abortion.

7. Sex in the City -- It was good. I was disappointed with the ending -- Hey! Men are jackasses, but if you marry them, it's all good. Good clothes and bags, though. I still want the tutu.

8. Gone Baby Gone -- Eh, it was OK. I probably should read the book.

9. Margot at the Wedding -- I understood the movie until the final scene. I even actually liked the movie up until that point. But how does someone just get on a bus without paying?
