Christmas TV and Films
Dec. 28th, 2013 12:01 pmWhich was complicated by finding things that at least 2 of the family would watch.
TV-wise we watched:
Jonathan Creek, 'The Judas Tree', which was pleasingly fiendish. I sort of guessed part of the resolution, I just couldn't figure out how they'd done it.
The Tractate Middoth - which was based on an MR James ghost story and was suitably terrifying.
Mark Gattis's documentary about MR James afterwards was interesting too. Admittedly I was amused by the bit where he thinks collecting gory saints's deaths is a bit odd and I'm like "you mean everyone doesn't do that?!" Apparently, no, not everyone collects gory saints's deaths.
Film-wise there was:
( Jane Eyre: The Mia Wasikowska version )
( The Mummy 3 - The Curse of the Dragon Emperor )
And ( Dracula (1958) )
And also, last night, ( Top Hat )
