Friday Night Project with David Tennant

Accidentally find this programme from the youtube. David played Casanova before. He has a Scottish accent. Find out what he says about his bad habit. :P

The Weakest Link - Dr Who Special

This is so funny! With John Barrowman as Jack, Noel as Mickey, Andrew as Jake, David as Dr Who, Camille as Rose's mom, Darlek's voice-over and K-9 the tin dog, this episode is so interesting!

I Heart Huckabees (2004)

I Heart Huckabees Trailer

"Nobody sits like this rock sits,
You rock, Rock;
The rock just sits and is
You show us just how to sit here
And that's what we need."
---from I Heart Huckabees

I love the line "You rock, Rock" most. The opening of the movie is so funny! The background music Monday adds more interest to the film.

It talks about existential issues, which reminds me of American Beauty. Every actors are so into their characters. Jude Law is as sexy as usual. Naomi Watts is the hottie. Mark Wahlberg is impulsive and strong. Darlene Hunt's character is named Darlene again as in Help Me Help You. Dustin Hoffman wears a wig which looks like beetles. He's so hilarious. All of their actings are a bit exagerrated. I don't get the meaning of life from the movie. But it still triggers your thinking of why we have to live on.

Katharine Hepburn

There are two Hepburns in Hollywood. One is Audrey Hepburn, the other is Katharine Hepburn. The first movie that she caught my attention was Woman of the Year, which she opposited Spencer Tracy.
I bought a biography on her called Beauty and Sadness. She's so confident and charming.
The only female that I would admit beautiful are Vivien Leigh, Ingrid Bergman, Grace Kelly and Katharine Hepburn. They each has their own kind of beauty. If Grace is graceful, then Katharine is charismatic.
I will talk more about her after finishing reading her biography.

The Cranberries - Dreams

Have you ever watched You've Got Mail? The song Dreams in the early of the movie is terrific!

"Oh, my life is changing everyday,
In every possible way.

And oh, my dreams, it's never quite as it seems,
Never quite as it seems.

I know I've felt like this before, but now I'm feeling it even more,
Because it came from you.
And then I open up and see the person falling here is me,
A different way to be..."

1. Gone with the Wind (1939) (with Clark Gable and is one of my favourites)
2. Waterloo Bridge (1940)
3. A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) (I'm sorry but I think it's boring)
4. Fire Over England (1937)
5. Anna Karenina (1948)
6. That Hamilton Woman (1941)
7. Dark Journey (1937)
8. Sidewalks of London (1938)
9. Storm In A Teacup (1937)

I havne't finished watching all yet. But I found the acting by Cary Grant was versatile. He can act a variety of characters.
I realized that I prefer Cary Grant and James Stewart much more than Marlon Brando (coz his role in A Streetcar Named Desire was destructive). And I like Katharine Hepburn more and more because her roles are lighter. They make you feel happy.

Bringing Up Baby (1938)

Bringing Up Baby (1938) Trailer

A comedy by Cary Grant & Katharine Hepburn. The centre of the story is a leopard named Baby. They called to zoo to take it but have to find it back for her aunt. And then their tamed leopard was mixed up with another wild leopard from the zoo. Their acting are a bit exaggerated, but funny to watch!
I watched the other films co-acted by them, too. For example, the Holiday, the Philadelphia Story. All are terrific!

Torchwood

Torchwood - BBC


I like watching Torchwood. John Barrowman resembles Tom Cruise! Torchwood explores darker issues than Dr. Who.

Doctor Who

Dr. Who is a BBC production.

One of the compelling episodes The Girl in the Fireplace. The story is very touching.
