In case you haven’t gathered, today’s strip references Down With Love – a delightful little film I encourage you to see.

Cami and I caught a matinee on Sunday, and I’m still thinking about it a week later. That’s saying something since it has to compete for real estate with the revolving head game that was The Matrix Reloaded.

I knew going in to see Down With Love that it would be a confection wrapped in period costumes, but I had a lot of fun with it. I’m really beginning to warm to the idea of remaking films from past generations with a modern filter placed between them. Kind of like what they did with Far From Heaven, but y’know… entertaining.

I have to admit that Ewan McGregor is cooler than cool and I’ve been a fan of his for a long time. He carries the picture on his back and is a joy to watch.
