Movie Favorite

"From my own personal tastes, my favorite horror film, I think, is a movie called The Innocents, which is based on this Henry James novel Turn of the Screw. The British picture from 1961 with Deborah Kerr as the repressed governess who goes to the faraway estate to take care of these kids who are seemingly possessed by the ghosts of the people who used to haunt the place. It’s a beautifully made movie and it’s not a rock-em’ sock-em’ movie, but its got really great psychological chills in it. And of course, there’s the eternal question as to whether the governess is imagining these things, or are they really happening? And it’s left kind of ambiguous, and it’s a really artful movie. I don’t think it was ever a particularly popular movie. I think a movie like The Haunting, which is somewhat similar, was a little bit more accessible to people than The Innocents, but, for my money, it’s, I think, the best horror film I’ve ever seen."

Surprisingly boring
The first 20 mins of the movie confused me as i wasn't really sure what was going on. I understood marks girlfriend broke up with him for being too exhausting or something and then he wrote in his blog about her as well as creating a rating site called facemash where girls at uni were rated depending on who was hotter, he was explaining how he got their pictures and uploaded them onto his site which i thought was unnecessary and wasted a good 5-10 minutes of the movie.
Some uni students wanted to turn his facemash idea into a social networking site similar to myspace and friendster based around people at their university with his help which he agreed to do. Instead of doing this though he created his own networking site called facebook which started a dispute with these uni guys claiming he stole their idea and took him to court and the whole movie is basically centered around that. Personally i lost interest very quickly as i found the storyline very boring.
