Good Movie

I don't usually use my blog to plug any type of entertainment-related events but every once in a while, I see a great movie and I feel the need to share it with others.

Let me preface this recommendation by giving you a bit of background. Last weekend, Rob and I watched 1957's "Witness for the Prosecution" starring Tyrone Power, Marlene Dietrich and Charles Laughton. It was nominated for and received six Academy Awards. The plot was thick and full of twists and, when it was finally over, we both agreed: "They don't make movies like that any more!"

But we were wrong! "Fracture" starring Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling is such a movie. There are no car chases. There are no tired and trite cliches. There is good writing, tight dialogue and a plot that will keep you guessing right up until the last scene. If you get a chance, go see this mind bender and try to figure it out yourself!
