Atonement — 

I love war movies, I am only 31 but I was clearly born in the wrong era judging from most of my tastes. This includes, my romanticizing of WWII. It's wrong I know, I've done the research I know, I know. Geeze, but still the 40's hold a place with me, forget that I was born in the late 70's. I long for orange juice can curls, red lipstick, and boys with grease in their hair and trouble in their smile. I really like Keira K as an actress, I actually do find her believable no matter what period dress she's poured into. and James McAvoy... good gravy, is he the dreamiest thing ever or what.... holy smokes. So to see their tortured romance, nice and steamy moment, and the emotion surrounding, with a WWII backdrop... I was sold before the first words were spoken, I was not disappointed.
