It's only available to paying members, so I couldn't see anything other than the title.<BR/><BR/>Here is the link, by the way: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0959385/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29654538.post-46623979781870656382008-04-04T19:13:00.000+10:302008-04-04T19:13:00.000+10:30Good call DM.

Let the shiny box office flops keep their giant showy special effects that (although they might sell movies) just aren't good silver screen material. MBT deserves the kind of eternal film-fame that comes from being understated...

I definitely see what you mean about "Master and Commander" - I've not read the book, but I love the gritty real-life feel of the film, and the attention to detail. Who've thought a director could pull off such a riveting narrative when the whole film is set on a small boat?. I guess my feelings about MBT (so far, at least) is that it isn't an *epic* fantasy as such. Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00713529103175706859noreply@blogger.com
