It's one of her best performances, but yes, she is always at least interesting, and sometimes really impressive (but not in her American movies).

Thank you. And to think I've been saying 'gravity' the past four years.

It is always very interesting to me when i see how differently people may react to something, or how a person, a film fan, can be totally delighted and amazed by seeing a movie and the other person, a film fan too, would say ''This is the worst thing i've ever seen in my life''.

Eyes Wide Shut, Barry Lyndon and The Shining will always be the trilogy of great Kubrick for me.

Cheri (Stephen Frears, 2009) 3/10

What crap. Lovely costumes which should get a nod. Rupert Friend is such an insipid leading man. Kathy Bates is amusing.....but the film is another misfire for Michelle Pfeiffer on her quest for an Oscar..
