home again, home again whatever-y what.
34 hours, home to home, is perhaps a little short for a trip to Toronto, but fun. And, due to vague shopping malaise, cheaper than I expected. We did accomplish the stated goal of the trip which was...
Okay, so I was sitting there the entire time the movie was running (and oddly enough, it did not last 90 minutes +/- 5) trying to figure out how I was going to recap it on livejournal. So far I've come up with: quirky. I liked the movie. I liked the main characters, the three Field daughters (Norma, Lou, and Sandy, but mostly Lou). Callum played their dad, and, uhm.
1) Aside from one "pitter patter let's get at 'er," he didn't appear to have written any of his own dialogue.
2) Period piece (1969/70) so he wasn't wearing any of his own clothing or jewelry
3) V. short hair
4) By the end of the movie, I'd decided he wasn't unsympathetic.
Really. If you think about it.
5) However, his first line, spoken after he limps drunkenly into his wife's funeral and stops to stand several feet away from the casket, is "Horseshit." This kinda sets the tone.
Will cheerfully go into more detail for anyone who's interested and doesn't mind being spoiled.
Have to eat now, so will cover the hockeyhockeyhockeyhockey part of the weekend a bit later on...
