This movie will, sadly, go unwatched by most of us. (I would never have noticed it except it was recommended to me by a friend.) Best movie of 2010, by far. Wonderful script, outstanding acting performances by everyone involved. The fact that it's a true story just makes it better. Glad the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has noticed it (to the tune of 12 nominations). I thought it would be boring. I was pleasantly surprised. Not my type of movie, but I still loved it. |

Cool, I've been thinking about seeing this. I've always enjoyed Colin Firth. |

Hmm. Guy Pearce, huh? I may have to watch this sooner than I anticipated. He hasn't been getting much of note, lately, despite being quite awesome. |

The man he plays --King Edward VIII-- is less than impressive, but that's just history. Of course, King Edward VIII (and his abdication) was responsible for the very first "Time Woman of the Year," thanks to Wallis Simpson. |

Entirely different type of movie. I'd say yes, but I don't like the type of gimmicks that go into "****" movies like Inception. |

I loved this movie. FYI: My daughter noticed 3 actors from the Harry Potter series. I noticed 3 actors from the A&E's Pride and Prejudice. Can you figure out who they are? |

LK and I were going to see it but I talked her into True Grit instead. I still want to see it. |

I'd like to see it, but Phe's not interested, so it'll be a rental. Serious doubts it'll top True Grit as my film of the year, though. |

I enjoyed True Grit, but wasn't completely wowed by it. (The girl's performance was unbelievable...especially as she was actually only 12 during the filming of the movie.) |

I would never have picked this movie to see either...but Taly, I have loved everything you recommended so far, so I'm going to see it tomorrow. |
