After the final Gold is given...

I'm looking forward to re-entering the world of good films after the Olympics madness passes. For now, I'm going to continue to stay glued to NBC throughout Track & Field and the gymnastic final round but here are a few flicks I "must see":

THE FALL starring Lee Pace/ Pushing Daises.
I missed this one when it was in the actual theatre because it was a tiny film and only up for a few weeks so I'll snag it when it comes to DVD and invite myself to impose upon the largest screen I can find because the visuals are supposed to be amazing. Plus, it's a movie that stuck with my brother for days after-- and that is hard to do so I know it was good. Check out the trailer. You'll be intrigued!
A must "save" for your Net Flix Que.

HENRY POOLE IS HERE starring the brooding and oh so endearing Luke Wilson.
Christian magazines are ALL over this one because of it's "message about Hope" -- the story was written based on the true experiences of the writer's own life trials and faith. The cast is top notch and the trailer expresses a dark, dry wit. Something I always find incredibly brilliant.
Now Showing.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON starring Brad Pitt & Cate Blanchett
Need I say more with a cast like that? The trailer immediately mesmerized me in when it started showing up during the commercial breaks between Olympic Track and Field Heats and has my official vote for our traditional Wanke Christmas Night Movie out.
Opens Christmas Day.

See you at the movies! (But first, I gotta go see how the gymnasts are holding up)
