Like the wife said when Bale showed her the bullet catch secret...once you know, it seems so obvious. Once you know the movie's secret, it seems so obvious! Watching it again, I wondered (SPOILER ALERT) how I didn't notice that Fallon never talked, how I didn't notice that Bale was playing two COMPLETELY different characters, and especially how he talked to the wife when he was the husband as opposed to how he talked to her when he was the brother. Amazing. <BR/><BR/>My dad had the same problem Esther did, I think, that there was no redeemable character, but my Mom and I convinced him that the Bale that survived was a good guy, really he was. <BR/><BR/>I want to watch it with you again!! argh, you guys should come up in the summer!Catherine_Creaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540489813336428811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32419152.post-27043960763618307632007-03-09T20:20:00.000-08:002007-03-09T20:20:00.000-08:00I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief.

(Except for when I'm very emotionally involved, and that was definitely the case here.)<BR/><BR/>I'm still only seen it the one time, but I keep remembering little things that change the way I was thinking about it. Sign of a wonderfully written script. (And I love the fact that the film follows the same form as the magic tricks: pledge, turn, and the prestige. Awesome.)"Father Barry"https://www.blogger.com/profile/03111823468395487534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32419152.post-69293802865897434512007-03-09T13:33:00.000-08:002007-03-09T13:33:00.000-08:00I don't need to find codes in the bible, that's wh...I don't need to find codes in the bible, that's why I'm a Catholic. Thanks to free will, I make my own choices and choose my own destiny. <BR/><BR/>I'm still debating whether you're being serious or not...of course, having no idea who you are isn't helping. As for the work I'm doing...well, at present it's mostly just trying to stay in the state of grace. How about you?Catherine_Creaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540489813336428811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32419152.post-75182112098513908422007-03-09T12:49:00.000-08:002007-03-09T12:49:00.000-08:00I was interested in THIS and your March 6th post, ...I was interested in THIS and your March 6th post, as well. I'm sure that you have a great 'feel' for the work you're doing, but wondered if your writings convey where YOU are in the great scheme of things.<BR/><BR/>Towards THAT end...<BR/><BR/>DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY READ 'CODES' RIGHT OUT OF YOUR OWN BIBLE, that 'CONTROL' your Destiny?<BR/><BR/>See the 'CHOSEN'Code and 'COLOR'Code; VISIT: http://quadcode.blogspot.com ! <BR/><BR/>Save or Print it to study.<BR/><BR/>HAVE A MUCH MORE 'BRILLIANT' DAY!Rudy Wellsandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09416686623169777927noreply@blogger.com
