A night out

[eumelia]

Went out to with tamara_russo last night. Had a very nice dinner and conversation and then went to a movie.

We saw "El Labertino Del Fauno", and it was one of the best movies I'd ever seen, it was also the most horrifying!
Leigh, if you're reading this, so not a movie for you!!!!
Anybody whose looking at the poster of the film and is thinking "Hmmm, I could take my son/daughter/nephew/niece to this", let me tell you, you are so wrong because you will be spending the majority of the movie covering their and your eyes!
It was visually gorgeous (even with the vast amounts of gore, since it wasn't about the gore, but just very realistic amounts, which is what made so terrible to watch) and the premise and plot were gripping and beautiful.
So you of love for Magical Realism, War Dramas and Clever Child Heroes, this movie is for you.
I might write a spoilery review of it later on.

Me and ridds went to it last night as well, the 19:30 screening at Cinema city.

It is as good as they say it is, but it's also very hard to watch. When you write your spoilery review, I'll write a spoilery comment on it.

Ach tell me about it! About half the movie was me and Tami burrying our faces in each other's shoulders.

I thought it was beautifully disturbing movie. Not for the faint of heart.
