Caught Hero today at Crown Village and as expected, it’s simply gorgeous on the big screen. And this was despite a piss poor screening (subtitles cropped off initially than overcorrected so that the top of screen was cropped; dumbasses!). Theater was surprisingly full! Not surprisingly it took top box office honors again (good!! take note, miramax, next time you consider sitting on a film for 2 fucking years. assholes).
Nominated for an Academy Award in 2003 but finally gets a theater release late in 2004?! Bullshit. I had already seen this on the import DVD I own but could not resist seeing this gorgeous film on the big screen (I’m at least happy I had that chance). And it’s one of my very favorite movies. Love this movie so much.
