the ghost writer which the palace that does not have a guy on a bike with his
head on fire they should never named at this but does it sells more books
the ghost writer also based on a book the book called ghost by robert harris a
book that i also read
about that finished
unlike shelter island which i did not finish this buyout robert harris this is
about a essentially about the guy
who is ghost writing
tony blair's memoirs in this book tony blair is named adam lang
but heat is so close to tony blair that there was concern in england that there
would be
alive election
an inning when they're very serious about that there was some thought that
even robert harris is very close to tony blair that if they hadn't had a close
relationship that there might have been
thought that they might in in england you can actually
sort of you know you can stop it
north and there'd been some thought that that might have actually happened
so what is pretty obviously we're talking about tony and sherry blair here
olympia williams playing the wife and actors bras and doing a nice job as out
of line the tony blair character u_n_ mcgregor is the ghost writer he comes on
after the mysterious death
of
of the previous ghost writer who dies
upon the fairy i would like to point out also that in the other filmography which
you can check out on youtube shutter island the movie opens with leonardo
dicaprio on a fairy
probably the biggest week in movie history for the ferry boat industry
mcdonough now that surprisingly know far chords of its own yeah and there's no
doubt doesn't think it's a real movie i don't know what i get actually i thought
i don't fees who is a really auto surreal movie
but it felt smaller the shuttle right because welfare with this one directed
by uh... relentlessly
and so you have a greater are hired to finish the now more started by the by
his predecessor
who'd been a close aides who are the tony blair character at a blank
and in the process of writing the memoirs stumbles on what may or may not
be a content anglo-american conspiracy
to as we learn in the film
to kidnap terror suspects that essentially the story in the question is
is it true and who's behind it and uh... interesting and i thought
impressive cast casting in the movie which will get into his week
as we talk about
director might be slightly relevant as well i mentioned it's a it's a a twelve
a point right now i'm saying to this was our conversations with aren't
madam curie songs that with you or you think
this movie maybe went completely over my head and i'll
hot i'll be right off with that the three meters in the high seventies right
now reviews this document
mostly critics are saying are last night uh... well had stopped a bit but most
people are saying that it's
you know
most the critics are really really like him so it's probably get are certified
fresh designation
while people are saying score sickening claims he is back
kind of a return to form for him
that being said had mystery what right over my that hide
i'd interfaced with etc it would you say lead over your head are you saying that
the plot confused biltmore saying i just didn't like it was not permit i don't
think that apply confuse me there was more along the lines of at
as good as the acting wise and i think that the forms as were good
just felt like it wasn't going to be where the whole middle of the movie the
second act
just dragged on forever for me
i felt like he's kinda you know that you regret your character
who which i thought was interesting that it was never really gained yeah
he's just just kind of i've never felt like
he's really
passionate about getting to the bottom of things i felt like
he's got this kind of casual interest in what's going on
and then the big reveal at the end
i don't think was at the video i thought
you know i i'll say yes it if that was reality that would be a big deal but
with all of the political so i think that's going on between the u_s_ and
england
and note is tony blair popat of
the americans
having to reveal be what it was about transport really i thought
all yeah okay so you've got any was a little twenty one way i'd kinda like the
movie atmosphere there for a second ben lev baoan
but we don't know what you thought
seems they were all over the board on this
ahm i did not think any of the year
but the book was actually you know i i think frequently when you really like a
book and i really like this book the film adaptations frequently disappoint
you know in
our previous review which again you could find on youtube
we should arrive on the was a book i did not like at all which is surprising
customs will handle of all for a life
so
i was not surprising then that film adaptation was better than the book but
here are the film adaptation was everything
that the book offered at the author robert harris adapted screenplay along
with rome lansky
but it all round about being responding
i thought that
this screenplay was quite funny there were a lot of lighthearted moments
from ewan mcgregor from peers bras and from olivia williams from can patrol
with the british accent and of course charged at what i didn't really know
control
born in england race in canada and went back to britain
few british and release their nobel here
and then i thought in a really brilliant that accounting which is a real credit
thrown point you've when i was doing when it comes om
uh...
james belushi
now we have to have a twin a bold new york publisher who i thought it is one
scene stole the scene
uh... and i think again that was really a stroke of a lasting and writing
i want to talk about the you know i won't
you i will come to experience again
uh... epitope i watch and he was great that you know five minutes he's got
companies w's goat
the disordered week well not weak but middle middling
uh... a romantic comedy with it you lol and cameron d
great-great brilliant kate winslet
and jack black without dragging down the hall of that year
massively elevated
with eli wallach as and aging screenwriter
you know i liked helps everything always always helps everything
have seen a great career for me when i walked
but uh... you know i thought this was a political thriller
at its best
edits
your best and you know we had seen a to keep referring to shelter island at
which you can see on utube now that the uh... are you know that but you know we
had maxthon seato in
in shutter out who i don't think we mentioned in the review but i think
every movie admit
a movie that max fussy doubted dot make better
mhm you can't imagine that and my huffington post review it campina
uh... and he was in one of my favorite political thrillers of all time
through the condor
this movie
uh... had you know if you can't do the sydney pollack three of the condor rump
lansky herewith
the ghost writer you know the stories lines not that similar but there is one
thing that they do shared common and they
i had three days of the condor feelings in the ghost writer and that for me at
least uh... very significant koppel this is a
again a tense and i thought
complicated but totally
plausible and believable
political thriller that
totally public i'm kind of between you guys i guess i'm closer to penn i liked
the movie it was think it really works as a political thriller i like to acting
i thought pierced rosin actually did the best job part of the bunch although
you know his tagger maybe did not have the death of some other characters but i
thought it went really well but you're right jim belushi reason that very small
role really stole it was awesome obligate felt a little smaller to me
you know that's what i was they're talking about before like almost like
you should see it on dvd
but i'm glad i saw it in the fifties it was
it made it a little bigger baseball
well i don't think that that's part of the budget insults movies or smaller i
know i know of course of course it's it's not fair to hold it at that
a budget against that but overall i like it again lovett elected with it do the
ratings are saying but what i won't work of systematic rhone-poulenc ski eight is
should that be relevant inner act because i kept thinking about it like
a mile of the latest week purple as he's the director that end of the equation at
all
political you know where you're allowed to work have
ut
you know uh... beat it
come on the radio and like it
yeah of course
mileage actually musical genius
i mean i'd seen the police report are only a very question in western
unfiltered
i don't have any doubt
mhm allen michael jackson is a
i think the evidence against michael jackson's offenses against children
await roman polanski's
i think they're both back but i think you can look at roman polanski's efforts
as a filmmaker and obviously well-motivated in less than a michael
jackson right courtyard
through kinda bringing another example into this you know picasso was notorious
for being asl and
slap in winter in bed
that doesn't mean it was a great trainer
right stylistic
it's it i've been catherine uh... i'm really really families if i had a
representative of the a target now i hear you got right so if you end
allegedly no real quick you believe that you can't help but watchable empty movie
exposed to be set in martha's vineyard boston and you can't help but think
that's obviously not by the vineyard in boston
please jump in germany and you know these due in post production
from prison
i mean it's two thousand from present is a prison as an alpine ski chalet in the
resort town of goods dot of present
sort of epithet yeah
but it's not my idea of president oregon and i i i like the movie i did love the
movie
seven point two is when i went with
unsettle the seven point o_ but you know what
we got the point stuff in there was my idea so i was like act like they're a
little more than a seven seven point
to effective at work
of defense work you know i liked a lot
tried not to go overboard so well
but i gave it an eight i think this is an excellent though
okay and it's a solid score economy that so that's a big time score
and are tentatively resolved a complete waste of time i guess my biggest
reactions that with the support
i was expecting something more you know i act the old school seventy zero
clinical thrillers
like three days the cover like paralyzed you are really enjoy and i guess it was
something about
maybe the humor didn't sell me in this there was something about it just didn't
sit right with me and i got to do with the low score like of four point oh now
crazy talk except that lazy
you will bring that advertises lucy that ability of our businesses can we drop
below stores me
rohan cryptologic terrible is swedish girls really does is outrageous that
this is outrageous thing everybody's gonna be alright alright as gets a six
point four overall for
the ghost writer
