I'm in the middle of law exams, jittery from caffeine and and bleched-out at the thought of two more weeks of this. Plus it is the kind of dull grey day where it never really gets light out.
This is exactly the sort of movie that almost invariably jolts me out of a slump like this - the Brits have perfected light comedies and I wish they could them together faster so that I could see one a week. Sure, the 'wind-shield wipers in my mind' will wash the slate clean in about two minutes after I leave the theatre, but its not like double-mocha lattes which kick you to the ground on their way out.
Oh, and Chiwetel Ejiofor smokin'. I don't care if he plays gay, straight, evil, saintly - he's got beauty, magnetism, grace, and amazing acting chops. I want to see more of him as a leading man.
