How do you know?: This was one of several movies I watched on the plane, if you're flying transatlantic you should really try to get one of the planes with the tv in the back of the seat in front of you, then you can have a choice of what movies play for the next 9 + hours. Anyway the movie, I wasn't overwhelmed, it was a chick flick, so there was a lot of stupid (but Owen Wilson is in it, no surprise there) and a fair amount of cute. It was okay, but I wasn't satisfied by the ending, it's not going to be something I turn to again and again.

Lifeboat: Yet another Hitchcock picture. This was a very interesting movie, it takes place in a lifeboat as the title might suggest, in looking back it seems that Hitch made multiple movies confined to perhaps and equally small space, Rope, Dial M for Murder, and Rear Window come to mind, but this one was the first, it was made during WWII. It's a good movie and explores a lot of difficult situations. I think that I'll come back to this movie and watch it again and again.
