did you hear how originally the main in salt was supposed to be a man but it feel through and they cast angelina jolie? it's true, which made me want to see the movie and watch the whole thing thinking about how it should be a man. and, chris and jill saw it on a date recently and jill said it was amazing but mostly she was glad to be away from her kid for a few hours.
so, salt is a badass who might be a russian spy or might be an american spy and someone took her husband and she's working her ass of to get him back.
this movie was impossible to predict and i watch a lot of movies and tv and could pretty much write any of them. there are twists and turns and unexplained ends but mostly there's a lot of action and freaky skinny jolie with her big lips. it's awesome.

I'm glad Angelina Jolie doesn't make all total crap. I felt so burned after Changeling (ugh, worth it only because I saw it in Brooklyn where people are not at all quiet or shy about telling everyone and the movie screen what they think of the movie). I retroactively hate Girl Interrupted. I still love Foxfire. Have you seen Foxfire or read it? It's about a girl gang, and it's written by Joyce Carol Oates. She's so good at making characters that are difficult to like or sympathize with even though bad things happen to them. I love that ambiguity.
ReplyDeleteI also love that the lead was supposed to be a man.
