TWD was awesome. Mother Dick!

First three episodes of "The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" on Netflix. It's funny, but a bit sappy at times.

My friend had the world premiere of his necrophilia film yesterday at SXSW. He tells me that a girl vomited during the screening.

How did the rest of the audience receive it (the movie, not the puking)?

[celedhring]

Really well, apparently.

[Syt]

Glad to hear.

So me and the wife watched the first episode of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt kind of on a whim Saturday night.

They we watched the next nine episodes, and the last three last night.

Great show. Really, really well done. Quirky, fresh, a little bit bizarre at times, but it works.

I posted about it a page or two back.

It really is good.  I still have the last three episodes to go - might have to wait till Tuesday night though.

And the theme song is still caught in my head.

On episode 6 now and really enjoying it. Also, Ellie Kemper.

[spoiler]3 known characters, all still alive right now- that's way ahead of the curve. Course, two of them were introduced this season. /shrug [/spoiler]

Suite Francaise

I haven't read the book, so I can't compare, but I think the film really worked. There wasn't anything that was particularly unexpected in the narrative*, but then I don't think that is expected or even needed in a movie about a German occupied town in WWII.

My only critique would be whether or not the narration was needed. It wasn't overbearing by any means, but I wonder if the film would have study just as strong if those parts had just been left to rely on the visual image.

I am, of course, now suitably depressed and need to find something vapid and shallow to boost my spirits.

*though previews were a bit misleading, I think, as the focused almost exclusively on the romance plot.
