My husband took me yesterday to Interstellar, the new film with Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway. First, I want to state that I don't particularly like McConaughey. I like some of his films such as Two for the Money or Frailty, but what went wrong when he made The Wedding Planner or Failure to Launch? The only explanation I found for rather good actors making bad films: he had to pay his long overdue rent and, when offered a bad script he said to himself: "This film is horribly bad, but I'll do it for the money" (I won't bring up the much praised Dallas Buyers Club).
So let's go back to Interstellar. I liked it. It made me laugh, it made me cry and stirred a little my new found feeling of motherhood. Wouldn't it be great to be able to set the percentage of honesty and sense of humor for the ones around us? So if and when you have the chance, I think it is worth seeing. It's not in my top10, but it's not bad at all. It must be the Christopher Nolan blessing.
PS: I would have preferred seeing Eliza Graves (or Stonehearst Asylum) because I love both Jim Sturgess and Kate Beckinsale. Plus who doesn't love an Edgar Allan Poe story? I plan on seeing it next week.
