Wonders Never Cease

Saw the back-end of the movie Lincoln on the goggle-box just now. I watched it once on a flight and was impressed, but didn't realise just how beautifully shot it was. At least, I couldn't see enough to be sure it was beautiful though I suspected it was. Anyway the suspicion is now entirely confirmed and I simply must watch a full run of the film, and since they're showing it again on Sunday that shouldn't be much of a problem.

Watching something this good hasn't restored my faith in the cinema, because I never had any. But it confirms my belief that sometimes the transcendentally wonderful somehow becomes available, and then it's wise to grab it.
