Latest on Becoming Jane
Here in the dawn of the New Year, I'm still nursing my holiday hangover, so I'm going to finish up with my three-part Overlooked and Underrated series of columns, starting with Julian Jarrold's Becoming Jane, a fictitious biographical romance about Jane...

This has become one of my all time favorite movies. Anne Hathaway is flawless and James McAvoy now takes his place as one of the best British actors... I have ever seen.

The love story broke my heart and all and all was a beautiful, beautiful movie. I have bought it and watch it over and over. Full Review

It was so refreshing to see such a beautiful love story, sprinkled with plenty of humor, and no sex scenes or profanity. I wish that Hollywood would... make more movies like this one. I can't wait until it comes out on DVD so I can buy it. Full Review
