OK a 5 year old film, but I video'd it a while back and watched it last night.

Wow, what a great film. No wonder it was nominated for a few academy awards.

I followed it up with the Transporter wink OK, a ste film but fun all the same. biggrin

Certainly a good film and a hard subject to tackle, but it just felt like a made for TV movie to me

harrowing film, but beautifully done. A real must see, if only to remind us that st like that happens (ed)!

In what way? It had Nick Nolte, Don Cheedle, Joaquin Phoenix and Jean Reno. The sets and props looked decent enough, certainly didn't have a cheap feel to it.

I also watched this the other night, and was really impressed... The weak link in my mind was Nick Nolte, and Joaquin was also totally under utilised.

biggrin Yes, a digital VIDEO recorder. I V+ it when it was on last week.

Recording stuff to digital or tapes is all still video-ing.

Some people still say they "taped" this that or the other and yes, those are technically not taping unless they really still use VHS biggrin
