Just want to tell you that I watched the last two thirds of "Around the Universe" the other night and I was riveted by it.

I'm planning to watch it again soon with my spouse.

Um, Across the Universe (none / 1)

You can drill out the rivets if you want to be able to move again.

Glad you enjoyed it, perhaps we should make a diary to discuss it, though no discussion is as good as seeing it. That way we try to recreate your old film threads.

Re: Um, Across the Universe (none / 1)

I'll see if I can get a handle on it. The film is of particular interest to those of us who lived the sixties, which may be the reason for its lack of commercial success. There's not enough of us old guys around who are still able to get to a cinema ;)

The problem with doing a film diary is getting enough people to watch the film in advance.
