I liked that she was more 'flat' than your typical theatrical, over-the-top newsreader. When she was reading out the part about people over 50 not being included in the 'raffle', I thought you could tell she was struggling to keep her cool. I really liked her character.<br /><br />I also LOVED how things turned out for her in the end. I thought it was really original, compared with other movies where the heroes all survive except for the odd one you don't care about all that much.Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-57364240107670863592011-10-11T10:30:21.525+08:002011-10-11T10:30:21.525+08:00I read this blog a few days ago actually, and it p...I read this blog a few days ago actually, and it prompted me to watch Deep Impact again. Thanks, I was in the mood for a good old disaster story. I forgot about that one; it was a great story, but... was it just me, did Tea Leoni seemed stilted in her performance? I just didn't believe her, and felt sorry for the good folks of America that this was how they were hearing about armageddon. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed it again. Been watching lots of others too, such as Titanic as well as, for whatever reason, downloading a great deal of movies from the 1930s - something very familiar about them. Perhaps its the rain. PS, been following your blogs too, my you seem to have committed to a lot of stuff, the Chrysalis and NaBloWriMo... if you watched Deep Impact for the writing, and you get a spare moment, which doesn't seem likely, may I recommend Moonstruck for its - I was surprised how good the screenplay was.Sam Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01042888599773098090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-47887957346223732592011-10-09T18:03:05.301+08:002011-10-09T18:03:05.301+08:00Danette - I missed a day early on (day 2 I think. ...Danette - I missed a day early on (day 2 I think. hehe), so you're not alone!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-53893228798891627642011-10-09T09:05:57.528+08:002011-10-09T09:05:57.528+08:00Well, actually technically I did, because I posted...Well, actually technically I did, because I posted on my political blog.
