June proved to be disastrous for movie appreciation. Films vanished after short seasons, DVDs didn’t come out, reading took precedence. July optimistically beckons:
- The most hyped serious film in Melbourne is Disgrace – I was smitten by the book, so this is a priority
- Bruno – the few scenes I saw of this offshoot character of Borat had me in stitches
- Jim Jarmusch’s The Limits of Control – sure to intrigue
- Noodle – I know little about this Jewish film but my brother wants to see it and his taste is good
- Last Ride – I’ve seen the trailer for this moody outing for wonderful actor Hugo Weaving
- Star Trek – is it Stoicism in action or not?
- The Hangover – I need a laugh
- Vicky Christina Barcelona – this and the next two are leftovers from June
- The Wrestler
- The Singing Revolution
