in a perfect world of yancies: Wendy and Lucy and Millionaires

Wendy and Lucy and Millionaires

As you may have seen from the Twitter feed, we saw a great movie the other day called Wendy and Lucy. Such great, quiet stuff. Times review is a good read.

Here's a trailer:

Such a rich, vibrant look into a small part of the world. Just loved it!

If you can, you should so see it!


Last year, we saw Slumdog Millionaire, which was good.

Trailer:

I'd have to agree (sigh) with David Denby, though, that overall it's not really "best picture" material, and that the whole thing has an slightly uncomfortable touristic/exploitative feel . . .


But the soundtrack is awesome.

Here's one of my favorites:

Ringa Ringa - A.R. Rahman
Composer may be familiar . . . there was another song I once mentioned on here, written by the same guy. Great stuff.


Also on there: MIA. Need I say more?

(Something to watch for this weekend: she's pregnant, and her due date is more or less the same as her performance at the Grammy's. Exciting!)

Here's a song, then:

O... Saya - M.I.A.

Cheers. Happy Weekend!
