Not The Casino

Thanks to mom for the six-month Netflix subscription, we saw Stardust yesterday. Not a bad film. Not a great one, but an OK one. I had no idea who the female lead was, and my thought upon seeing her was: "She looks like Michael York." Not a female version of Michael York, but Michael York. To be fair, she looks like Michael York from his Three Musketeers days, as opposed to now. Turns out the woman is Claire Danes, which still meant nothing to me. However, according to IMDb, she was voted one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world by "People" magazine.

Somehow, I hope that makes Michael York happy.

You need to watch more TV. Clare Danes was in My So-called Life, waythehellbackwhen. And she's cute, too. But I can see the Yorkieness...

I'll watch more TV when they make an all Stargate SG-1 channel. "My So-Called Life" doesn't mean anything to me, either. I don't see "cute", I see Michael York. I only see D'Artagnan.

And I'd give up TV if it was all Stargate SG-1. So... Did Clare wear a huge, funky hat in this movie, or what?

Oooh... wow, Sam. Cut me to the quick, why don't you?

She actually wore lots of long, flowy dresses. Which, when I first saw her, caused me to say: "Why is Michael York wearing a dress?"
