Michelle Williams gave such a contained performance, with moments of sheer panic and despair. When she hops on the train to head to Alaska (I think) it was a real reminder of the days of the Depression. True North and Far North both look interesting, with True North particularly timely. Here's a link to the Bright Star website: http://www.brightstar-movie.com/ Ouch, Paul. Depends if he did the movie before or after the facelift. : ) Wendy and Lucy was a very interesting film.

Very excited. Douglas as Liberace is a great idea. I’m going to see a preview of ‘Bright Star’ in a couple if weeks. Very excited. Douglas as Liberace is a great idea.

True North : Scottish fishermen become involved in the smuggling of Chinese refugees Far North : A deserting Russian soldier is given shelter by an Eskimo woman.

Yes, the post-plastic surgery look isn't a good one. I was watching Madonna's Celebration (contains vidoes of all her songs, although strangely not "American Life", the "political" one) and in "Miles Away" she has just that look. I understand that she believes in the importance of staying young and fit, but I'm sure not sure when young and fit was equated with "anorexic deer in headlights". I remember Douglas having that look not so long ago. Perhaps he has decided to sacrifice "youth" for his craft. Tee hee, that’s funny Bernice.

Douglas is a good actor. Should be an interesting flick. I have no idea what Liberace was like beyond the image. I wonder who will play Jamie Redfern? Douglas and Damon. Douglas is a good actor.

Can hardly wait. I’ve trying to get my head around the notion of Douglas playing Liberace in Soderbergh planned bio-pic, with Matt Damon as his lover/driver. Can hardly wait.
