I am not as "highbrow" as some people might think...tonight I went and saw The Hunger Games and it was my idea!

It isn't the best film ever but I had low expectations anyway. The actors were rather good, it was effective and entertaining, and even though this isn't the kind of material that makes an actor shine, Jennifer Lawrence still has that incredible screen presence and is – to quote P-H: "une belle plante" (not sure she can play teenagers that long though)

But above all, I was so happy to see Paula Malcomson play her mother! John Hawkes was her uncle in Winter's Bone, and now Paula is her mother!!!!! Sol and Trixie are connected again through her. :- )

BTWKatniss' family is very similar to Ree's. I don't know if it was in the book, but it's obvious now why Jennifer has been picked for the part after her unforgettable performance in Winter's Bone.

PS: Just realised, by checking  a thread on someone' s else journal that I don't receive comments notification from LJ anymore.
