Shades of Lavender...

Even with my classes and studying taking up a good portion of my non-work hours I still have the need (yes, need) to make time for a good movie. While I have avoided seeing the latest Star Wars film just because it will probably be around for months, I am jumping at the chance to see the latest release (2004 actually) with the wonderful Dame Judi Dench and Maggie Smith starring. Ladies in Lavender was released in the UK last year and is finally getting its due here in the states. From what I hear it is a wonderfully visual period piece with a great story. Ms. Dench and Ms. Smith will surely not disappoint. I am viewing it this Friday when it opens at The Charles Theatre in Baltimore, a cinema that I am glad is so close as well as willing to fill their screens with such wonderful films. I will let you all know how it was.
