BookJumper Posted June 8, 2009 Author Share Posted June 8, 2009 I'll bring the Pinot I do not tolerate white wine anymore sadly, although it doesn't sadden me as much as the thought of suddenly not tolerating red does. I do like the idea of a BCF film night, although I'd have to get someone from home to send me a bottle of Sangue di Giuda (yes, it does mean Blood of Judas and despite the slightly blasphemous name it is the most scrumptious sweet red I have ever tasted... and I have tasted a few) I think. A special occasion warrants a special drink. I absolutely adored Dragonheart and Stardust too. Have you seen Inkheart the movie? I saw it today, it wasn't a bad wee movie. I've actually acquired that, although I plan to afford (I want the pwetty sparkly hardback!) and read the book before I watch the film - I hardly want to read the book having spoiled the entire plot for myself. I was also gonna suggest Return to Oz and Legend, but they're not exactly in the 'feel-good' category, i find them pretty freaky After obtaining Legend and watching a few scenes I realised that I had indeed seen it and removed it surgically from my brain lest it scarred me - a bit like the Dark Crystal, or The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (both of which gave me nightmares as a child). I don't think anyone mentioned Amelie, and although it probably won't fit everyone's 'fantasy' bill, it can't be denied that it's like an explosion in a feel-good factory Beautiful film that. Such an adorable love story betweel odd but lovely people *sigh*! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I concur with Scarlette's assessment of Pan's Labyrinth. It's excellent. Me too Mac! In fact, I think I'll watch it now. I have the house to myself for the night and I'm spoilt for choice! I was going to read but I think Pan's Labyrinth sounds better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kell Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 ... Pan's Labyrinth. It's excellent. I agree Pan's Labyrinth is a fantastic film... Pans Labyrinth, ...some great suggestions. I was going to read but I think Pan's Labyrinth sounds better I'm afraid I'm in the minority - I thought Pan's Labyrinth was severely over-hyped. It's got some of the most beautiful cinematography I've ever seen, along with stunning makeup and art design, but the film itself? Meh! I wasn't grabbed by it, to be honest. But, like I say, I know very well I'm in the minority on this one. Oh, and it's definitely NOT a fee-good film! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
