Not a big fan of the white blond hair, but she makes it look good. I prefer her as a brunette.

I envy all of you who have seen Married Life, I have to wait til the end of March for it to open in theaters where I live.

I have not seen this yet either since it's not out either. I am looking forward to it though.

**NZOCFan** · 03-17-2008, 03:54 AM

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing a new Rachel movie.

Whenever that will be!

**Periwinkles** · 03-17-2008, 07:42 AM

Yes, we've waited this long already, we can wait a little bit longer.

I just found out that the movie is going to be shown at my film festival sometime June or July, and the director is going to attend. I'm excited.

**Periwinkles** · 05-17-2008, 07:29 AM

That's awesome. Will you be going?

**NZOCFan** · 05-19-2008, 05:21 AM

Yep. I was gonna go to the film festival anyway. This year will be my third year in a row. It will just mean, however, that I'll be paying more to go to more films since I have to add this to the list.

Hopefully I can go to the session where the director will be attending.

**NZOCFan** · 06-28-2008, 12:19 AM

Yay I bought my ticket! 16th of July.

**Periwinkles** · 06-29-2008, 07:11 AM

Oooh, awesome, Jess.

**NZOCFan** · 06-30-2008, 04:32 AM

I'm hoping the director shows up at the time I'm attending. There's three dates schedule, and I'm going to the only day session.

Ugh, sorry for the double post again. DVD news:

Quote:

You can bring home an intriguing slice of married life home in standard and 1080p this September. Married Life will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray on September 2. The standard version will be priced at $28.96 SRP and the Blu-Ray version will be priced at $38.96 SRP. The film stars Chris Cooper, Pierce Brosnan, Patricia Clarkson and Rachel McAdams.

A strong blend of suspense, star-crossed romance and wry comedy of manners, Married Life is an unconventional human drama about the irresistible power and utter madness of love. Harry (Chris Cooper) decides he must kill his wife Pat (Patricia Clarkson) because he loves her too much to let her suffer when he leaves her. Harry and his much younger girlfiend Kay (Rachel McAdams) are head over heels in love but his best friend Richard (Pierce Brosnan) wants to win Kay for himself. As Harry implements his awkward plan for murdering his wife, the other characters are occupied with their own deceptions. Like Harry, they are overwhelmed by their passions, but still struggle to avoid hurting others. Married Life is an uncommonly adult film that surprises and confounds expectations. While it plays with mystery and intrigue, its ultimate concern is: What is Married Life? In its sly way, Married Life poses perceptive questions about the seasonal discontents and unforeseen joys of of all long-term relationships.

Special Features
- Commentary with Director Ira Sachs

Oh yay, I was just asking myself when the DVD would be out. Then I can finally see it.

The 3 alternate endings sound interesting.

**NZOCFan** · 07-16-2008, 09:03 PM

I saw the movie yesterday. I was a bit late in arriving to Ira Sachs' introducing the movie, but I got there in time within the opening credits.

I didn't stay after the movie for the Q&A either.

The movie has a few faults, like for one, I think the movie should've been a bit longer. But overall, I liked the movie.

I'm definitely interested in getting the DVD for the alternate endings, after seeing it. The acting is really good in it (particularly Chris Cooper's in the last fifteen minutes) from the four main actors.

But it was really good seeing Rachel in a movie I haven't seen over and over again.

**Periwinkles** · 07-17-2008, 10:25 AM

How long was the movie?

**NZOCFan** · 07-18-2008, 09:12 PM

I think it was around 90 minutes.
