In Other News
Jon and I watched the original Manchurian Candidate on Monday night. In short, it was excellent. Tonight, we gave the remake with Denzel Washington a go. I wasn't really expecting it to live up to the first one but I still was hoping for a little something. What a major disappointment. I don't understand why modernizing a movie means changing it completely. (Here I could reference that bloody awful rendition of Cheaper by the Dozen, the raping of one of my favorite childhood books.) If you're not going to do it right, then don't do it at all.
