City Lights IV

'It's Complicated" and other movies

By GHS63Sandy - January 03, 2010

On a lighter note, I don't want to complain when some of you are facing single digit wind chill but it is very cold in FL also.....before you sneer at me we are facing the possibility of a FREEZE tonight. Anyway, the weather sent us running inside today. We chose to go to the movies and saw "it's complicated". We both were thoroughly pleased. Alec Baldwin was very good in the madcap comedic role, Meryl Streep was wonderful as always and believe or not Steve Martin played the straight man. Last week, when it was cold, we saw Invictus. It's hard to imagine so much forgiveness in one person. Again we were satisfied. "Up in the Air" however left us cold. We were thoroughly enjoying the movie and then the end hit as cold as the blast of air outside. It wasn't the kind of emptiness that causes discussion, it was just emptiness, as if they forgot something. Perhaps that was what they were going for.
