You know how often in the movie theatre there is someone who laughs out loud, sometimes even when it's not even appropriate? Well, today, I am afraid that was me! We went to see Run, Fat Boy, Run directed by David Schwimmer and starring Simon Pegg and Thandie Newton. It was just my kind of humour. I am going to have to see it again because I am sure I missed bits because I was still giggling from the last funny bit. Look out for cameo parts by David Walliams from Little Britain, and Stephen Merchant from Extras.
It was in complete contrast to Margot at the Wedding, that we had out on DVD starring Nicole Kidman and Jack Black, which was also supposed to be funny. The whole thing was shot in such gloomy lighting that we totally failed to recognise anything amusing. And it ended abruptly in the middle with absolutely nothing resolved.
My Greek Goddess of Hope in Pandora's Jar idea for March's QAL just wouldn't work out in my head, but then I had another idea that just manifested itself straightaway. It was a much simpler idea - luckily as I was fast running out of time. I did The Light at the End of the Tunnel
your quilt block is really clever! I'm generally not a fan of comedy films (too disappointing when they're rubbish) but I do fancy Run, fat boy, run...... you may have just persuaded me!!!
