D.I.A.L.O.G.U.E

Breaking and Entering goes on my list of films to watch when Im writing my next film. Jude Law will be Jude Law and no one should let that bother them but this is truly a wonderful movie to watch if you just want to be completely awed by the power of good dialogue and clean dialogue and honest dialogue and dialogue that comes from hard work and sweat and just writing the same scene over and over again and actually being two different characters in a scene with whole, unique voices. Here's the trailer.

That said, Jude Law needs to not be Jude Law. He needs to figure himself out, its pathetic how he cheats on every screen relationship of his. Its cliche, not surprising and I don't feel for him anymore. He just looks pathetic doing it, like some idiot infant who doesn't understand what they are doing. You can't just stand there looking cute and puppy doggish and kiss people and not know why you are doing it. You can do it once and twice but movie after movie it does not work. Cant cast him anymore. Can't do it.

93% full glass, that Breaking and Entering is. And Vera Fermiga is a complete revelation. She is also the only saving grace in that pathetic mess of a movie, The Departed. Martin Freeman, Juliet Bincoche and Robin Wright Penn are all delicious.
