Wow! Seems I saw a bunch of movies this weekend. Friday night was "The Edge of Heaven", which, for all its very good intentions, I found predictable. Paths that don't cross but should, paths that do but shouldn't. Fluke incidents that, funnily enough, have major implications for characters who remain ignorant of those incidents. Fluke incidents that have major implications for characters who become all too aware of those incidents. Still, a better movie than most.

Next up was "Elegy", based on Philip Roth's novel, "The Dying Animal". Sadly, I was bored (mostly) by the movie. Dennis Hopper was fun. Penelope Cruz was beautiful. Ben Kingsley was hard. But the movie was dull. Which, given the novel it came from, is a pity.

Last was an old Neil Jordan film, "Breakfast on Pluto". It was the most fun of the three. And, by a long shot, the most original. If you haven't seen it, you should.
