Burn After Reading

He’s a good boy that lad of ours, getting the aged parents in to see a movie every now and again. Coen brothers “Burn After Reading” this time; another good movie. We both enjoyed it- mind you, I’ll watch John Malkovitch reading from the telephone directory. Daft plot which became dafter, but we felt better coming out than when we went in, and that’s what counts. We always stay right through the credits, by the way. It is frustrating for the staff who want to clearup the cartons, but how else would we hear the final track on the music soundtrack, and know that it was the Fugs. For the movie anoraks, you can find out more about the Fugs here.

While we were away took the opportunity to watch “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” again on DVD. You don’t need to know Homer to enjoy it, and all the cast clearly had a great time, plus another fantastic soundtrack of really good American music.
