dinner and a movie: Take the Lead
August 11, 2008Dinner was not memorable. The rice noodles were a different brand than what I usually get, and did not survive stir-frying. They became a gelatinous mass in the wok. Luckily, there was a shrimp/potato salad from last week, roast pork and lots of Tuscan cantaloupe.
When I spotted the movie at the library last week, I thought, hmmm. Antonio Banderas dancing. Who cares how the rest of the movie is.
As it turned out, very entertaining, much more than I bargained for. As in Remember the Titans and similar films, it’s the transformation from rough to sublime that is so fascinating. Now I have to find the soundtrack.
