OK, I'm on a movie kick - just saw "Stranger Than Fiction"
and I absolutely loved it. Totally redeemed Will Ferrell after the atrocious "Bewitched". STF was just a sweet, sometimes melancholy, funny movie. I highly recommend.

I also just saw "The Prestige" and thought it was a steaming pile of poo. Wish they'd expanded on the Tesla scenes/information and left a lot of the other crap out. Crap!

Anyone have any opinions on either STFiction or The Prestige?

2. I'll keep that in mind - it was a toss-up at the rental store,
literally my husband held "The Illusionist" and "The Prestige" behind his back and I pointed at one arm and we got stuck with "The Prestige". I'll check the other one out soon.

And I was pleasantly surprised with STF -- sometimes movie premises seem like they are too "clever" to be entertaining, but I thought this movie pulled the cleverness off well without being irritating. :hi: back! Hope you're well, wildhorses.
