The movies this summer have been difficult to navigate, for various reasons. It looks like I'll be waiting for the DVD release (BTW: I wasn't aware that the singing First Lady Of France made an appearance. Apparently Woody still has French cache!)<br /><br /><b>do</b> - Nice blog! Also interesting to hear your thoughts about <i>Arthur & George</i>, a book that's on my "to-read" shelf.Whisky Prajerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14076228013022881173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-12142981524361403792011-08-03T13:59:04.183-04:002011-08-03T13:59:04.183-04:00Hooray for Hemingway!

I must have read A Moveable Feast six billion times, first all at once, and now I go back and open it randomly to read passages whenever the book catches my eye on the shelf. <br /><br />Also, hooray for Julian Barnes. I'd never thought about it, but the prose of Arthur & George has a strange similarity to Mr. Hemingway's. <br /><br />Cxx<br />http://desoeufs.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-74090453813595186192011-07-29T15:01:24.601-04:002011-07-29T15:01:24.601-04:00WP, Excellent post.

Light fare, yes, but the ideas behind the story were interesting. Corey Stull as Hemingway was fabulous as was the gorgeous First Lady of France, Carla Bruni. Owen Wilson was solid, surprisingly so, and Rachel McAdams was a disappointment, surprisingly so.<br />.....and the cinematography was, of course, fantastic.<br />But, the main reason I brought the movie up was the inclusion of Ernest Hemingway as a character. He speaks well for the craft.DarkoVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572734667248592785noreply@blogger.com
