Watched His Girl Friday on Kg and salaam chennai's rekemendesan. Enjoyed it. The lead heroine possessed great attitude and Cary Grant was

. Boy they speak English FAST those times. The opening scenes in Cary Grant's office was funny. It's always a pleasant experience to watch Classical Hollywood Cinema.

Tarantino's films always have this as "fast speaking" template. He even referred it in script of "Pulp fiction". Scorsese showed it to cast of "Aviator" to get that style of dialogue delivery. Cate Blanchett, I thought, got that "code" of 30's and 40's well in "Aviator".

Sherlock Holmes - Liked it. RDJr

I noticed that part of the trailer, kinky attired Irene Adler looking down on fainting Holmes and kicking his crotch,etc - is missing from the film.

Up in the air - Likable than the director's previous film, Juno and better too. But a bit overhyped. Clooney is alright and so are other actors.
