Tonight I have just been to see “Warren Miller’s Children Of Winter Never Grow Old” and loved it. This is the next era of Warren Miller movies as he isn’t involved in any part of them, I do miss his narration. Oh well, here’s the trailer. Enjoy.
Why did I go to see this movie? Well last year (10/2005) I went to the Palace of Versailles. This building is stunning so I thought it would be interesting to see what it may have looked like through the eyes of an American movie with all the costumes and opulence. It is slow and gets a bit artsy at the end. The story could have been more gritty, cutting from the French royalty to its people. Sound track was ho hum (in places just plain bad). Kirsten Dunst did very well but is just a little too cute. Five stars from me. * * * * * * * * * *
