Cultural Cuisinart

Just watched The Squid and the Whale on DVD this weekend. What a great movie. It was certainly snubbed at the Oscars this year. Though I enjoyed Capote (which I also watched this week) and thought Phillip Seymour Hoffman was great, I enjoyed The Squid and the Whale much much more. It was a lovely, intimate little film and it felt really... true. I liked that a lot about it. Also, it has Laura Linney in it, who is one of my favorite actresses.

Jeff Daniels also stars and it freaked me out how much he looked like a blond version of my father. Crreeeeeeppyyyyy!
