Re: Random movie talky stuff.
I just watched the two part British miniseries of Doctor Zhivago tonight and really liked it. It had a lot of happy moments, the romance and love triangle was pretty believable, and had a lot of interesting but sad historical events. I liked a few things like how fate seemed to creep up in interesting ways.
Don't expect to feel good after the ending though... unless you enjoy watching human suffering. I know its a tragedy and all, but sometimes I think these authors take some perverse glee in tormenting and playing with readers' and viewers' hearts. Sorta like putting yourself out there with the cutest, most innocent smile and getting smashed with a hammer. Anyway, I guess that's how life was like at the time, and the tragedies like to make everyone suffer.
I definitely recommend it though if you don't mind being sad. Keira Knightley and Hans Matheson were both pretty delicious looking... minus the scenes where he looked like a caveman.
