It's All About The Dark



I've been sitting in the dark a lot lately and I'm loving it. The Melbourne International Film Festival is well underway. I've only seen three so far: Balibo, An Education and Tea with Madame Clos (I did not see that ending coming!). I was also lucky enough to catch Coraline...based on Neil Gaiman's wonderfully spooky novel by the same name. I've loved everything I've seen so far but what I really, really can't wait to see is Where The Wild Things Are... this film by Spike Jonze looks truly special. Fingers crossed it will be.

I got goosebumps the other day when I saw the trailer for Where The Wild Things Are, I can not wait. I love the anticipation, hope it is as good as it looks.
