Rent the DVD and watch it with your family. And after that, maybe you can watch <I>Fellowship of the Rings</I> for Cate Blanchett with the elvish ears. <BR/><BR/>LK - I love it too. I quote from <I>Elizabeth</I> to often for any sane person.<BR/><BR/>imani - It's hard to imagine anything overwhelming Blanchett's screen charisma. Not sure about the naval thing though - since they are leading up to the Spanish Armada, I suppose there will be some screen time at sea. Great naval battle scenes perhaps, with Owen at the helm. At least it's not Russell Crowe on the ship.<BR/><BR/>bybee - Neither can I. But latest news <I>The Golden Age</I> will only be showing January 2008 here. When will it reach Korean shores?darkorpheushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565452271408221461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15914227.post-27826214761613783812007-06-30T16:10:00.000+08:002007-06-30T16:10:00.000+08:00Wow, I can't wait to see this movie.Wow, I can't wait to see this movie.Bybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061186489010154661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15914227.post-37265452040347935262007-06-30T11:24:00.000+08:002007-06-30T11:24:00.000+08:00Hmmmm.

I don't think that Owen and Blanchett can be overwhelmed by elaborate trappings but I don't want them to be the only stand out things in the movie. :p<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure about those ships-on-the-sea scenes.
