Shine

Shine was really good. And with an amazingly good soundtrack. Although Geoffrey Rush was definitely really effective in his performance, I actually preferred Noah Taylor's descent into madness. A lot less like an excuse to get an oscar. Armin Mueller-Stahl was also impressive. But Noah Taylor was my favorite part of the movie. Well, that and the Rachmaninoff. Which was really impressive. Scott Hicks isn't a great talent, but he clearly can make good movies, with this and Snow Falling on Cedars. May have to suck it up and watch Hearts in Atlantis. Or maybe not.
