The Orphanage
The film was like a diet coke. Lifts you up via the cafiene but does not load you up on sugar. It is elegant and takes it time with this story. Reminded me of The Innocents.
Funny thing is that during a reel change the screen goes black for about 5 minutes. When the film comes back up we have missed not only the demise of a character who we have no idea who is (in a very grusome way, I might add) but another character who we have managed to follow up to that point disapears never to return again. I really want to go and get a refund, but my girlfriend does not want to spend another few hours watching it again. Neverless I ask for a pass since I was kind of lost because of the missing fotage. The person selling tickets flat out refuses, assuring me I did not miss a thing. Then I ask him since he knows so much about what I missed that he can tell me what I did miss. He gives me a blank stare and finds something better to do that look at me. I talk to the manager, who assures me that I did not miss a thing, but he did give me a pass. Handing it to me he assured me again that I only missed about 30 secounds of film, then I ask agian if he could tell me what happened. He gives me a blank stare. I walk out with a pass and a good story for filmspotting. B
