La Jeune mariée De Cadavre

So, like, I got to watch The Corpse Bride last night with The Lady.

I was sorely disappointed at the fact that there was no badly translated Malay subtitle for the movie's...er...title.

I mean, I was expecting something like "Si Perempuan Mahu Kahwin Yang Sudah Mati" or something like that. That would have been cool.

But nit-picky, waste-of-time comments aside, the movie was fucking BEAUTIFUL. Everything was textured and layered like a motherfucker with pretty glowy bits and butterflies and swirlies. The human figures were wonderfully stylistic.

And the MUSIC. OMG. I want the soundtrack to this movie. But only if it has the two piano pieces.

Shame about the story. 'Twas badly paced and and lacked, as The Lady put it, focus.

Lovely movie. Must buy the DVD for the pretty pictures.

Yes, will be going to see Corpse Bride!

Another movie that's out that you must catch if you can is "The March of the Penguins" It's a movie-style documentary on the life of the Emperor Penguin. Apparantly it's grippingly full of drama - and belly-sliding penguins. =P
