Movie Thoughts: The New World
But then I read Will Gray's excellent and compelling review of this movie on his blog Explorations. So I added it to the top of my Netflix queque. It came in the mail two days ago, and I watched it this afternoon.
Will was right. It was beautiful. Much of the movie is quiet and thoughtful, and I loved the minimalization/understatement of key events (such as when the first indication of a baby's birth is a shot of his hand), which I think simply makes the emotion of the scene that more affective. I loved this movie. I would watch it again. And I highly recommend it.

This makes me want to see the movie now! (Of course, it doesn't mitigate the disappointment of knowing that, while I was in OH, none of my VA friends drove to W'burg to inspect Colin Farrell in person...)
