I watched 12 years a slave last night.

Not as good as I had hoped, but still worth watching. http://m.imdb.com/title/tt2024544/

I was disappointed. Some head injuries can cause a loosening of inhibitions. I didnt see that in this movie. I saw a depressed, unfulfilled, bored spouse searching for something elusive. She didnt seem too happy even being a clandestine sex worker, surrogate, therapist.

Dallas Buyers Club - good movie, but it felt somewhat "held back". In other words, I felt like it was building toward something huge that never happened. I would still recommend it.

I think that everyone that I've spoken with has loved Dallas Buyers Club, until now. I was not really impressed. It was ok, but not something I'd watch again.

12 Years a Slave. So well done but so profoundly sad.

I am still thinking about it days later.

Philomena

Judi Dench, Steve Coogan, Mare Winningham

Based on a true story.

In 1952, a young Philomena was sent to the convent of Roscrea in Ireland after becoming pregnant. When her son became a toddler, the nuns sent him to America for adoption.

Nearly 50 years later, Philomena meets Martin Sixsmith, a former BBC reporter looking for his next big story. Together, they embark on a journey to locate her long lost son. As the pieces of the puzzle come together, the unlikely travel companions form a comic and heartwarming friendship. Based on the 2009 investigative book by Martin Sixsmith.

-----

Very powerful. A mother determined to find her son, a son equally determined, and the Catholic Church determined to hide the truth.
