Finian's Rainbow: 9/10 - love the cinematography, love Petula Clark, love How Are Things In Glocca Morra (in my repertoire) and love the sparkling Ray Heindorf arrangements.

DIE, MONSTER, DIE! - an interesting attempt to merge HP Lovecraft with the Corman/Poe cycle, only without Corman or Vincent Price. You do get Boris Karloff, though. Not bad, better than other versions of The Colour Out Of Space (specifically last year's cripplingly dull version, Colour From The Dark). And it's short - just 75 minutes.

Although I've seen it many times on TV over the years, finally bought the Region 1 DVD of Silent Running (extras that the region 2 doesn't). Managed to get my wife to watch it last night. She wasn't that enamoured but she picked up that a short story of mine was influenced by the film - in much the same way that Duncan Jones' Moon was influenced by it. I'd give the film 9/10 and I still feel sad about the drones Hollywood, please don't remake this film, it's good enough as it is!

The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009) - 8/10 This was a pretty solid action flick. Well, not really "action" action, but it was certainly enjoyable, and I think John Travolta and Denzel Washington gave great performances. One of Tony Scott's better movies, especially in recent years. Does Hayden Christensen follow the career model of Mark Hamill? Well, Mark Hamill may have never become a big movie star, but he's had successful careers on stage and in animation, and even in comics a bit. Plus, he seems perfectly content with having the career he's had, and he enjoys genre projects and participating in them.
