My theater is showing an unprecedented number of old women films. We actually had a row of walkers lined up outside the theater for these shows. And I've had to watch them all. Anyone else see these?

The Prize Winner of Defiance, OH - C-. It thinks it's much cuter than it is. Stop talking to the screen, Julianne. You're no Ferris.

The White Countess - D. I'm starting to resent movies set against the backdrop of war. It lends your movie an often unearned gravity. Like this one.

Mrs. Henderson Presents - C. Judi Dench would get an Oscar nomination even if she weren't in a movie that year. I'm surprised she didn't get one for Chronicles of Riddick. She does her same ol schtick here. Chris Guest is wasted. There's actually quite a bit of female nudity in it, if you're into that. I get naked Bob Hoskins. Thanks.

I liked Mrs. Henderson. Quite a bit, in fact.
