Went on retreat this weekend. We saw Sister Act, with predictable results (Maggie Smith. As Mother Superior. MAGGIE SMITH. NUNS. MAGGIE SMITH. Seriously, that woman is unreasonably hot.

I heard on NPR this morning about a movie called Melancholia [IMDB link], about a depressed woman who saves the world? It sounded almost like the hero was mentally ill in a non-completely-faily way. Can anyone verify that?

Haven't seen it, but the reason I haven't seen it is that I personally don't trust Lars von Trier as far as I could throw him -- a couple of his other films go right through "no. Just no." and into "But... why would you do that?"

On the other hand, that actually does sound rather interesting, damn him. I may check it out if/when it hits the intertubes.
