    Re: Beautiful Kate *SPOILER ALERT*

    I watched Beautiful Kate and I also felt uncomfortable with the theme of the movie, it was well acted though. Not one for my collection.

    Major fail alright. I wonder what she thought of it....I know my own mum would have walked out in disgust.

    Well you probably won't like "Precious" or "Blessed" one bit.

    Don't you sometimes want to watch a movie that mentality challenges you?

    Re: Beautiful Kate *SPOILER ALERT*

    I saw it last night and really liked it (despite the subject material), an epic performance by Ben Mendelsohn who never seems to get the kudo's he's due. I watched parts of it with the audio commentary on and Rachel Ward was saying some very interesting things about why they chose to cut some scenes and how it affected the overall tone of the film.

    It's disturbing in spots, but overall I thought very worth watching.
