Not usually a fan of Kidman either, but I've been surprised by how good she can act in some of her lesser-known films.Yanting Guehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04788603550626277974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-61263562359196248462014-12-04T05:54:12.539+00:002014-12-04T05:54:12.539+00:00Hi Tracy,
I haven't watched any of the films ...Hi Tracy,<br /><br />I haven't watched any of the films you mention in your excellent post, but rhen I have to say, that by the time I get in, sort dinner and do a few chores, I generally spend the remaining hour or so of the evening, catching up on email and posting on the blog, rather than watching television.<br /><br />There must have been a series of Liam Neeson films on this week, as Mr.G wtached his third one last night! I did catch most of 'Unknown' on Monday evening and thoroughly enjoyed that and Mr.G has since watched 'The A Team' and 'Taken'.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your great finds, I can see I shall end up with a 'To Be Watched' list soon!<br /><br />YvonneYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-49584489599048745962014-12-03T20:53:08.129+00:002014-12-03T20:53:08.129+00:00Love the reviews.

Interesting to hear your thoughts and Mr. T's too! I learned about a lot of movies today. :) Stephanie@Fairday's Bloghttp://thesecretdmsfilesoffairdaymorrow.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-16387376314343365082014-12-02T21:29:31.524+00:002014-12-02T21:29:31.524+00:00Thanks for sharing your views!

I really did think it did justice to the book. <br /><br />The only other on your list that I've seen is Monuments Men. While I enjoyed it, I didn't consider it to be anything special - much like Mr. T summed it up.<br /><br />I may have to look into Gothic and The Railway Man a little more closely. <br /><br />I thoroughly enjoyed this offering from the two of you and hope we can see this as a regular feature.

I too find that the movie doesn't usually do justice to the book fully but if one starts with a title they weren't happy with, the outcome can usually be predicted to match on the film. Thanks for the share! ^_^Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01067420839553243250noreply@blogger.com
