Ahhh. Thanks, Ipomoea.
I thought it would have been something more like, "Keira Knightley shouldn't have accepted the role. I was so angry at the cinema I fought an usher. Fighting an usher always gets a few pulses racing." You know, something completely fabricated. But, as you've shown us, it's legit! Horrah.

I heard this movie was bad...Perhaps I shall see it.

what, you're a keira fan who hasn't seen it? no you're right, i apologise. if it makes you feel any better, the graphic imagery will make up for the lack of suspense.

It was excellent for that split second. The beauty of the Pause button.

But the movie was, in my opinion, a bit too contrived. Hell, once the story kept going after the first alibi, then I knew Thora Birch did it all. And the way she was amoral about it, it reminds me of every other existentially amoral psychopath on film.

It wasn't a bad movie...it was quite good. I liked it.

I'm going to have to disagree (what a surprise). Not only was it a pretty shit film (had potential, started well but the plot just became too contrived, as DR said, and you knew what'd happened before being shown it...so as Bob pointed out, severe lack of suspense) but even the sight of Miss Knightley's breasts for a split second wasn't enough to save it.

I'm going to be incredibly gay and say her performance was actually not too bad...then again...the other performances were so shoddy hers would seem oscar-worthy by comparison. Thora Birch especially was abysmal.

LoveKeria · 23-10-2004, 12:31 AM

Yeah ok, I agree with you on the Thora Birch performance. However, not conceeding to the fact that it was actually an English film [half the reason i liked it - i quite like most english films] it was still a very good film. I really liked the story line, and i don't think it got complicated at all, more like it was just twisted and turned so we didn't know what was going to happen. I hate knowing what happens in films.

By the way i think its horrid to say that Keiras breasts didn't save the film. Poor girl.

I didn't say complicated. Said contrived...it was actually TOO simple, and TOO obvious what was going to happen...and I TOO hate knowing what happens...which is why I didn't like The Hole so much. It was transparent as glass.

Better to say they DID? I would LIKE to think an actress would be offended to hear her breasts saved a film from being shit.

bob · 23-10-2004, 01:59 AM

well to make up for possibly offending her, they put her face on the cover. woopa!

LoveKeria · 23-10-2004, 02:03 AM

I think its still mean. But if you wanna say it.

Haha, actually the Hole cover in Australia had Thora in front.

You can't say I'm an idiot in one post coz of another....:P Rude person. Anyway, well, we have no re-release...so there. Only cover i have ever seen for it. Plus...re-release cover or not. Its still a point that Thora was on it.

Err...Thora was on ALL the original covers...so that's like stating the sky's blue. And yes, I said you're an idiot using the exact same post you'll find, just two snippets from it. And I stand by it.

Well you do that. I'm not an idiot. Someone has to stick up for me, and it shall be me. We all have our blonde moments.

True that. Just introducing people to the banter, to the unique style of the Wavefront.
