Factotum and others

Err...I don't suppose anyone knows why my lj has suddenly decided to begin the second entry on each page with a huge space, as if there's a picture missing? It's really annoying!

Last night I went to see Factotum, based on a novel by Charles Bukowski. More on that movie and the Q&A with Matt Dillon afterwards. )

Also, since I'm talking about movies, two others I saw recently are Phenomena and The Man Who Laughs )

The Wicker Man--not

A friend sent me a link to this article on the *gag* remake of The Wicker Man here and not that I'm surprised, but I'm already annoyed by it. )

p.s. I find it fitting that I'm reading this about The Wicker Man after this week's re-read HBP chapter made me think of Britt Eckland's naked dance of temptation in the movie. (If you know the movie and the book HBP, it's the scene where Harry's trying to get into the RoR and feels a wonderful sense of power thinking of Draco on the other side of the wall.)
