Movies, May 2011

*** The Adjustment Bureau. Entertaining, fun to think about, nice hats.
*** Cranford. Disappointing, actually. We watch a lot of period miniseries around here, and this has a terrific cast etc etc, but it ended up being only pretty good. A lot of it was episodic, without getting us that interested in the characters.
*** Modern Family. Funny, well-written. Completely throwaway but enjoyable.
** Glee. There are some great moments, but overall it’s kind of dumb.
*** Rashomon. Classic, but far from my favorite Kurosawa.
