I haven't seen the film, but I've seen her in other stuff. She really impressed me in Bridge to Terabithia (you should see that Nat, you might like it), and I've seen her in episodes of Unfabulous and a Drake & Josh movie, she's quite good. I'm glad to see she's expanding, and it's great you got to talk to her mom. I'm hoping she was nice about it, and I look forward to seeing more of this little girl (though I might have to see Brothers first to see her performance).Richter Scalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09820925728032551527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-30927846104365936542009-12-06T01:37:09.190-05:002009-12-06T01:37:09.190-05:00I thought 'Brothers' was amazing all aroun...I thought 'Brothers' was amazing all around, great storytelling in particular - the director went from one point to the next without messing aroundEric Davidsonhttp://psoriasisguru.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-59935320024699362002009-12-06T00:43:18.351-05:002009-12-06T00:43:18.351-05:00I watched the original Danish one way back when be...I watched the original Danish one way back when because Leonard Maltin (I think) called it the best film of the year.

Technically it stands next to the original one, at least in terms of innovation.<br />It's flawed yeah, but even the flaws brim with pure love of cinema (the whole pit attack scene...)<br />And Naomi Watts gave the best female performance of that year.<br />Too bad she always goes on so unnoticed, she should be on her fourth Best Actress nomination by now.Notas Sobre Creación Cultural e Imaginarios Socialeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423835555933819338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-90029287733506638032009-12-05T17:47:23.841-05:002009-12-05T17:47:23.841-05:00Chris Na Taraja,

I haven't seen it, but the director Kurt Hoffmann also directed "Das Wirtshaus im Spessart" (starring an extremely charming Liselotte Pulver), which I've loved ever since first seeing it as a child. :)annanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-6933276338884225182009-12-05T16:39:04.431-05:002009-12-05T16:39:04.431-05:00I just got back from seeing this and although I th...I just got back from seeing this and although I thought it was mostly unremarkable, I'm thrilled to see our reaction to the young actress who played Sam and Grace's oldest daughter.

Lo...Didn't like this American version at all. <br /><br />Loved “The Departed”. I think it's better than "Internal Affair".<br /><br />Also loved "New Dragon Gate Inn" with Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin.joynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-2909076702346530892009-12-04T14:38:49.639-05:002009-12-04T14:38:49.639-05:00The movies I absolutely love that get remade are h...The movies I absolutely love that get remade are horror films, like Halloween and The Wolf Man.
