I have never seen "The Taming of the Shrew" before, but I admit it was worth watching. This adaptation was fantastic. So were the main characters, Shirley Henderson and Rufus Sewell. They were so good together - they really connected.

I did not know who Rufus Sewell was, but he was really funny too he made me laugh. Especially when he got out of that taxi with heavy eyeliner and nail polish, almost stripped to the waist and top of it all knee high black boots, he looked like a real Glam Rocker from the seventies what a sight it was!! For a moment I thought he wanted to boogie, instead he decided to get married and down towards the altar he tottered.

I think Rufus's a brilliant actor, remarkably appealing and very fascinating too. I really hope he will make more plays like this one in the future.

I saw Parenthood I think it was a few years ago and I liked it. The scene in the movie that stands crystal clear to me, that I responded to right away, is where Garry Lampkin(Joaquin Phoenix) phoned his dad and the dad didn't show no further interest in his son. I remember I felt so sorry for him that I bursted into tears, to see that sad expression on the boys face. I really felt like hugging him. Parenthood is a great movie that gives you something to think about! That's why I think Joaquin Phoenix is such a great actor when he plays a part he does it in a very sweet and vulnerable way that really brakes your heart.
