    I watched 2 more films last night keeping me well on track for this years target - this weather is good for something!
    Watched Dodgeball which wasn't great but an easy mindless couple of hours. This is going on the cs pile.
    Also watched Brief Encounter which I really enjoyed (after I'd stopped giggling at the scene which was very similar to Victoria Wood's sketch about it). This is to go back in my keep folder. :D

    Yes, that one is very good.
    We are Marshall is based on a true story
    Coach carter, excellent
    Best game ever played, never thought I would put a film about golf in my fave inspirational films list
    Drum line another worth watching
    And I think it was called fast girls about runners

    They are the off the top of my head ones.

    I watched We Are Marshall over the weekend Mrs-Moneypenny. What a brilliant film. Thank you for the recommendation. Thought it was very good and they dealt with the tragedy and towns feelings really well. Back in the keep folder!

    Finished watching Cirque de Freak: The Vampires Assistant last night. Enjoyable film. Very easy and funny in places. Doing well with my years target so far :D

    Watched The Anomaly over the weekend. Very strange film. It took most of the film to work out what was going on! Definitely won't watch it again so off to the cs.

    Watched Duets last night. I was dubious about it but thought it would be fairly light as it appeared to be about Karaoke! It was actually much better than I expected and was more about the lives of the characters and the difficulties each were trying to work through (with the help of Karaoke!)
