Movie
We went to see The Secret In Their Eyes, a film from Argentina. I had heard that it was really good, but hadn't gotten around to seeing it. It is a thriller, but more than that, like all good films. I liked the main character, a desk cop, Esposito, who was a very talented detective, but didn't have the status to gain that job officially, I think. All the characters were interesting and quirky, and the story, about a cold case involving a young girl who was brutally raped and murdered by an old beau from her home town, was compelling. I won't tell you more, in case you go and see it, while you still can.

I keep meaning to tell you that based on your recommendation for the Woodbridge Theaters and Ocean, Elsie and I took the kids there on 4th of July. Thanks for the tip,
You're welcome Lou. I hope all enjoyed it and will revisit that theater, which is a real neighborhood bargain!
I really enjoyed the movie! And Darin isn't the handsome guy, but he has such a beautiful eyes n_n.
My favorite character was Sandoval he is so funny and charming (I luv when he answers the phone and the passion speech) .
Here is a photo of Darin from a magazine(I think he looks rather cute in this picture):

Damn Quilty
He does have beautiful eyes, doesn't he? Thanks for your comment, Quilty.
Who are you, Quilty?
Yes he has and your welcome. My nick is because of Peter Sellers´s Claire Quilty from Lolita -Kubrick´s version of course- (what a character!)I just was searching critics and reviews for the movie TSITE and your site pop out in the list.
Quilty,
I asked because I wrote my dissertation on Nabokov, so I wondered who could have known that. I figure you are female, and that canceled out most of the people I thought might have written the comment.
What are you doing with Kubrick, if I may ask? And are you also studying Nabokov's novel?
Well, I read Lolita four years ago. And I liked it. And Kubrick is my favorite director since I watched The Shining in 1998. I didnt know about your dissertation. I have this nick since 2000 or 2001-Im not sure- (The nick stands for the Quilty in the movie not in the book). And yes, Im a woman. And this are my two blogs if you like to check them:

And by the way the books and the movies list in the second blog had changed that one is from when I oppened the blog.
Damn Quilty
I like Kubrick too. I would like to teach a class in his movies some time.
That would be nice!
I wrote a monography and made a speech about Kubrick´s movies to aprove a subject back in highschool it was entitled "The ´K´s mirror".(I analyzed his movies from a psychological and a social P.O.V.).
Damn Quilty
