Nice interview with Dan on GMTV, which includes an even longer look at the Burrow scene with the Trio. Though their dialogue there does bring up a canon inconsistency, ( SPOILER )Anyway, there's obviously a bit of romance talk, and Dan said something really lovely about Harry/Ginny, as it contrasts with the movie's other relationship, Ron/Lavender. I actually had to watch it twice, because while he's saying it, they're showing a bit more of the kiss scene, BTS-view that is, and I was too busy watching it to pay attention to what he was saying at first. :P I think in this film it's demonstrations of two very different types of teenage relationships. There's the one, which is Harry and Ginny, which is all absolutely love's young dream, and Harry is completely besotted with her, and it's that kind of all-encompassing that you have where nothing else matters when you're about 15. And then, on the other side of it, you have Ron and Lavender, who really don't know each other that well, but boy is there a lot of energy in their relationship, and it's very touchy-feely and just about snogging as much as you can for as long as you can, essentially.(ETA, because I only just realized I hadn't indicated that there was even a quote in here at all!)

Drew McWeeny, formerly on Ain't It Cool News as Moriarty, has posted a SMASHING review of HBP at his new web home, HitFix.com. It should be noted that Drew, while a fan of the series, has been rather critical of it, and the films in particular. I used to be kind of annoyed at how he complained about the school-year construct of each chapter in the saga. But his is an opinion I highly respect, as much as Ebert or anyone else. So imagine my glee to read a rave from him about Half-Blood Prince, calling it the best film of the franchise, even better than most film buffs' favorite Prisoner of Azkaban. Warning: It's somewhat spoilery. Not so much about what's left out or whatever, but he fairly specifically describes the first few minutes, as well as a couple of other key scenes, so if you're avoiding spoilers you should be aware of that before you click. ( ENJOY! )Be still, my beating heart. NO DON'T - I NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE FIRST! Current Mood: YAY!

Went to see this week's free movie in Bryant Park, Gold Diggers of 1933, which was fabulous. It reminded me a lot of Footlight Parade, which was one of the vintage picks from BNAT 7. Mainly because it featured Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, Joan Blondell, AND musical numbers by Busby Berkley. The movie was delightfully "blue." One of the musical numbers, called "Pettin' in the Park," was particularly risque, at least for 1933, and included a - wait for it - chastity suit gag (not just a belt, but a bathing suit of armor). It also featured a SMOKIN' hot kiss which I loved so much I've got to show you. We'll call it a bonus Kiss of the Week (clip should start just over halfway through the actual video, right at this scene). This got the best crowd reaction of the entire movie. I must add that the second best reaction of the night accompanied one of the trailers they showed before the film - the trailer for Half-Blood Prince. :D Can it be two weeks from now, please?
