For this post ...Agree about the sex scenes, Paul. <br /><br />For this post I am sorry that I had not more space to talk about her - without being unfair to the other (outstanding) actors. She would have deserved more.. If I had to do a rating I think after of course Helena Bonham Carter being my #1 in this film and Eva Green being #2 with just a smidge distance Michelle Pfeiffer would be #3.. Or maybe #2, too.. Well.. Eva Green has the bigger part here.. There are great actresses in this film..<br /><br />Oh.. yes! BATMAN RETURNS! That was great! Loved that.. Would love to see her again in a Tim Burton film for sure! Great we agree on that, Paul!Irene Palfyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13271957738785829189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964198014203898099.post-64083450337820051782012-06-03T05:28:42.339-07:002012-06-03T05:28:42.339-07:00I do find overdone sex scenes one of the negatives...I do find overdone sex scenes one of the negatives of modern films, but I'll try not to let it spoil my enjoyment of this one.<br /><br />By the way Irene, I really enjoyed your assessment of the talents of Michelle Pfeiffer in this post.<br />It never ceases to amaze me how little attention and respect Michelle receives from the general public, so it's always nice to read the thoughts of someone who's on the same wavelength.<br />Tim Burton certainly seems to bring out the best in MP, who could forget their previous collaboration in Batman Returns?<br />Hopefully we'll see them working together for a third time in the not too distant future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964198014203898099.post-82396720182702983042012-06-03T04:08:08.829-07:002012-06-03T04:08:08.829-07:00Aww.. Thank you, Paul! That's such a wonderful...Aww.. Thank you, Paul! That's such a wonderful compliment! I am sure you will enjoy the performance of Michelle Pfeiffer - since we both ate fans of her I think we'll agree on that.. but even if I wasn't I would love her here. She did a marvellous job. As I said before there are just two things irking me: The performance of Chloƫ Grace Moretz and this overdone sex-scene (which I found not very exciting..) - besides that it really is a solid film. Anyway: In case you'll watch this film I hope you're going to have a great time with it!Irene Palfyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13271957738785829189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964198014203898099.post-51821631480326958462012-06-03T01:33:11.583-07:002012-06-03T01:33:11.583-07:00I was looking forward to Dark Shadows but reading ...I was looking forward to Dark Shadows but reading so many negative reviews prior to its release had put me off watching it at the cinema.<br />Your wonderful post has caused me to re-think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964198014203898099.post-19383000639965204952012-05-26T11:26:40.879-07:002012-05-26T11:26:40.879-07:00I hope you're going to enjoy it, Kate!

So I'm definitely going to give it a look.
