Katherine the Great
I like to think of myself as a storyteller. Mostly I tell stories about knitting.

First, the previews:
I’m looking forward to “Flight”. With a cast like Denzel Washington, John Goodman, and
Don Cheadle, it has a lot of potential.

“Argo” looks good too, but I need to research because it is based on a true story and that doesn’t bode well for a happy ending.

The preview of “42”, the Jackie Robinson story, had me tearing up. It looks excellent, but is not coming out until next April?!? They’re killing me with these long lead times.

“Alex Cross” looks like an advertisement for really sturdy office furniture (think explosions); I’m looking forward to it. Although…Matthew Fox as a bad guy? We’ll see.

Trouble with the Curve
Trouble with the Curve:
While trying to convince the husband this was a better pick than Dredd, I predicted that there would be one crying scene at most given the character that Amy Adams was playing. I wasn’t wrong.

Now, I want to take up clogging and watch more baseball.

This movie is more about her relationship with her dad than a romantic comedy, but there’s a nice balance and an overall lesson about priorities.

I really enjoyed this film. The husband thought it was a little slow, but I can’t really think of a way they could have improved it. Everyone involved in this movie pulled their weight. Solid A for sure.

Ps. ONE week ’til Looper!
