Yeah, I fear movies that try and inject modern music and stuff to period dramas! WTF? Keep that shit real. A Knight's Tale pulled it off, though, I must admit.
I'll admit to enjoying that. Still, that didn't really have a historical basis (it was NOTHING like the Chaucer!), and took a kid's comedy approach to it (although maybe the fact that I was watching it with family added points, if I was on my own...). Now, doing Marie Antoinette like a rom-com. :shock:
Right, no historical storyline, but the setting was long, long ago. Good flick, though. Not sure about Marie Antionette, though. I'll give it a shot. Have you seen Vanity Fair? That movie threw me, I thought it was going to be a chick flick, light comedy, but it was actually pretty dark and not comedic. I was surprised. I liked it.

Have you seen
Just Visiting? That's pretty good, and has my uncle in it (pluggety plug).
No, but now that I see the picture I remember the movie. I'll have to look out for it. What does your uncle play in the movie?
Vanity Fair I avoided, because of what you said and, well, it's Reese Witherspoon. Still, she did get an oscar, didn't she, for playing Mrs Cash, so I'll give it a try, based on your recc.
And it's a very small part, he plays the King. His IMDB page is
here, and I'm not just saying it was good because he was in it, I really liked it.
zomg, Zad's uncle was in Sharpe! :shock: That puts me a mere three steps from Sean Bean.
