But the script was murky.<BR/><BR/>Forster alternates between arty/stylish (Monster's Ball, Stay, Stranger than Fiction) and square/plain (Finding Neverland, The Kite Runner).<BR/><BR/>I wonder what a car chase, shoot-out, and explosion will be like under his tutelage in the new Bond installment.Actionmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16513109522731313470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765008161115599620.post-21063138788366858642008-01-09T21:51:00.000-08:002008-01-09T21:51:00.000-08:00thanks for sharing your thoughts...i share many of...thanks for sharing your thoughts...i share many of your sentiments in terms of the film style.<BR/><BR/>i don't think i mind the length of the film, as much as the artfulness of the film. so many of the scenes seemed to be shot so squarely and directly.<BR/><BR/>i hope more people see this film, and i hope that as long a Forster and Beioff are going to work together and get strong projects, i hope that both there skills and production teams will continue to improve. Anything is better than Stay.RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11340006144797496514noreply@blogger.com
