Movies - To see or not to see ....???

The Iron Lady: As usual, Meryl Streep comes out with flying colours. I am a BIG fan and she did not disappoint. Her mannerisms as the old Margaret Thatcher suffering from dementia were so authentic. How does she do it, I wonder? Definitely, a must see.

The Newlyweds: Ed Burns directs and acts with complete competence in this movie which has some documentary elements to it. The story line is simple and real. And the message is clear - Don't think you have the perfect marriage!!! Definitely, a must see.

The Artist: Jean Dujardin plays the Artist and has excelled. The film recalls the years of the black and white silent era. Director Michel Hazanavicius has the courage to risk going back to bring out this wonderful creation. Everything worked and I enjoyed the last scene which finally allows sound to creep in. The dog was great coz the film was silent! Don't miss this one!
