At first blush. Against all the evidence, certainly. <br /><br />But yeah, if I gave in to the "apparent" ending, I'd be furious.<br /><br />Still, go see it, kids. It's very stylish. <br /><br />Pierce Brosnan, by the way, is a swell actor. Exhibit A, The Tailor of Panama. Exhibit B, The Matador. Exhibit C, the non-singing parts of Mamma Mia! Which I enjoyed anyway--I kind of liked his bellow-y singing. It was tres amusant(e) (masculin/feminin? who can say?).<br /><br />I have never liked a first line more than I like this one:<br /><br />"Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendia was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice."Lisa B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10646181766775405935noreply@blogger.com
