Got Something You Want To Say?

Shouldn't you guys be discussing this movie in the movie thread? Or specifically the thread for Memoirs of a Geisha?

Went to the movies, mowed the lawn, usual stuff on a Summery November weekend. :mrgreen:

I was on one of those once but didn't get selected by the attornies - guess I looked too weird to the prosecution and not weird enough for the defendant.

Hope you nail a murderer or two. :metaldevil:

Hey Anime Dad,
Good luck with the er, crims! (until proven guilty, of course!)

Just a minor correction. The contacts weren't blue, although they might have looked so on screen. They were grey. The main character was supposed to have these unusual greyish eyes. Actually I read the book
Memoirs of a Geisha years ago. I recently caught the movie on TV. The book was a millions times better than the film. The book covered quite a bit of the true education, rigorous preparation and formalities it took to become a geisha.

This is a very interesting discussion. Thank you!

Forgive me, bmwracer...but...

Reading these disparaging comments about the Memoirs film has put me off.
I know and love the book, but i don't wanna see the film if it's awful.

And yeah, the eyes thing is annoying. Like Enna said, the main character was said to have grey eyes in the book. And they DO look blue in the film poster. Huh. :bleh:
