amy....sure i'll buy ya junior mints .... or i would if i knew what they were...*L*

me... i like a mature, serious full-bodied mint

movie was not bad, pretty damn long though clocking in at almost 3 hours! i ran out of popcorn way too soon

i kinda have an issue re the costumes...part of the time they looked as though they were floating around in issey miyake tie-dye muu-muu's [img]eek.gif[/img]

peter o'toole looks a bit silly (permanently surprised expression) after an obvious facelift...while julie christie looks awesome without any work....a beautiful naturally ageing actress is such a rare sight on the movie screen...and a lovely one

Somehow I can't imagine the demon sitting still through a 3 hour movie to eat ANY quantity of junior mints... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And Fi...

I agree with you about Julie Christie - she looked amazing, and I would have loved to see her get more screen time [img]smile.gif[/img]

My problem with the movie is the adapted plotline - it bears only a passing resemblance to The Iliad...there are too many liberties taken with the characters and their ultimate fates...

i left my earlier readings of literature at the door and just took it as a hollywood epic... [img]wink.gif[/img]
