War Horse Was Great

Saw this movie yesterday, and while it is slow in parts (at least in comparison to the action segments), I thought it was great. It accurately depicted an ugly, violent, cruel war in which many died, were maimed, but in which some humanity survived. If you are looking for a sanitized view of war in which everyone dances through the fields and no one gets hurt, this isn't it. It is, however, about the triumph of the human and animal spirit. If you're up for a happy ending movie, with a lot of mess between the beginning and end (sort of like life), you won't be disappointed.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Charming, Funny, Sweet (& Savory)

My friend and I loved Julie & Julia - Meryl Streep's characterization of Julia Child was dead on. She brought Julia's joie de vivre to the screen and her joy in cooking and eating (and BUTTER)! Amy Adams as Julie is a delight - fresh, funny, sympathetic, and in her way, as determined as Julia. I recommend it wholeheartedly!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
