I watched a few movies over the holiday weekend. I saw Liam Neeson in "Les Miserables" for the first time. That character stayed with me long enough for him to enter my dreams, but sigh, it was not a romantic encounter! I think that may be what is described as a memorable performance.
The other movie I saw for the first time is, "Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" What ugly, vulgar people... and crazier than loons! That movie left me feeling bruised. I guess movies/art can be ugly as well as beautiful, but there is too much ugliness in the world already. Martha reminded me of my two hateful and unhappy sisters.
Many of the best movies and movie classics were televised over the holidays. These were not the only two I watched, but they are the two that spring to mind; Les Miserables because of Neeson's outstanding performance, and Virginia Woolf because it was so completely offensive. Ugh!
