Hi all, I watched "Jack Reacher" for the first time
the other night. It was a really great movie, but what
really stood out was the beauty, Rosamund Pike, playing
the female lead.
You, who have followed the blog, know the one who
I think is the most beautiful woman in the world is
Faith Hill. I think Rosamund is a very close second.
I had to use comment moderation again ... sorry.
There's a spammer out there that has me in her
crosshairs again. When I deem it safe we'll
go back to normal. Sorry Folks.
We give you dispensation, good sir.
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, she is worthy of most fulsome praise.
edutcher, I hope this blows over.
DeleteI don't disagree with you on Rosamund or Faith or the movie. One thing I found amusing in the movie was choice of Tom Cruise for the part of Jack Reacher. If you've read any of the Reacher series by Lee Child, you know Jack Reacher is a former MP, stereotypical "over 6ft over 200lb of muscle" and Tom I think is 5'9" in cowboy boots.
ReplyDeleteThat aside, Tom did a good job with the character.
Another good movie is "Shooter" with Mark Wahlberg.
mer, I haven't read any of the books, but Mrs. Woodsterman has. She said the same as you as to not staying true to the character. I thought Tom Cruise did a great job though.
DeleteI agree that's she's a beautiful lady and a great actress , but to cast Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher was a very poor choice....I can't believe that Lee Child approved...
ReplyDeleteDemaca51, I have not read the books, but I did enjoy Tom Cruise in the part.
DeleteI like to read both books and warch great movies. . . .especially if there are ladys.
ReplyDeleteAZDave, I fell in love with her, and what more can I say.
DeleteShe was in the 2007 movie "Fracture" which is one of my favorite movies. Bob Gunton plays Judge Gardner who is Pikes characters dad in the movie. Gunton makes this little speech to Ryan Gosling in the kitchen about being a prosecutor instead of a hot shot corporate lawyer that Pike wants him to be. "You know what nobody understands about certain kinds of low pay public service work, every now and then you get put a fucking stake in a bad guys heart. I'm not supposed to talk about that when I visit third grade classes for career day and it doesn't get you very far in the country club locker room, but its hard to beat when you actually get to do it."
ReplyDeleteMikey, I'll look that one up.
DeleteMy wife made me watch "Pride and Prejudice" with her a few years ago. Rosamund Pike played the "pretty sister". Perfect casting. Imagine a younger and even hotter version of Rosamund back in 2005!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBig Dog,, I'll look that one up too.
Delete"Jack Reacher" was a pretty good movie, and she was one of the best parts. WHATTA BABE!
ReplyDeletedrjim, exactly!
DeleteWell I certainly wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers....
ReplyDeletedanielbarger, She could cover me in those crackers.
DeleteSorry to tell you this, but Roseamud is a transvestite.
ReplyDeleteCregg, oh stop.
