so no one told me about this?

And I only found the ad on the NYT because it was placed on an article about India Day and the airport clusterfuck with Shahrukh Kahn, presumably because Mira Nair is the director.

Considering how Amelia's story ends, I really wonder how Nair is going to make this the big inspirational film this seems to want to be (and that she tends to make). I know what choices I'd make to pull it off, but I also feel like... no way, do real creative professionals make those choices?

Also, Hilary Swank -- always good, but she sorta irks me. I'm always aware of it being Hilary Swank Being A Serious Actor.

My brother and I refer to Shallow Grave as The Doctor versus Obi-Wan: Cage Match!

Remember the Coen Brothers movie A Simple Plan? We called Shallow Grave "No Plan At All".
