I was fortunate enough to be given preview passes to watch The Secret Life of Walter Mitty yesterday in the theater. The official release date is Christmas. It stars Ben Stiller and Kristen Wiig, along with Shirley MacLaine and a handsomely rugged looking Sean Penn. This movie actually originated from a short story written in 1939 by James Thurbur. It was first made into a film back in 1947 (of the same title), which I had no idea about until just now. Either way, all I need to say is that I loved it and everything about it was beautiful. Seriously, some of the shots were breath taking. The colours, composition, everything. A total treat for your eyeballs.
I'd like to visit runaway to Iceland one day.
If you get the chance, go watch this film. It was entertaining throughout, with just the right amount of humor. The visuals and special effects were really quite stunning and it had a story that I thought was both enjoyable and relate-able to some if not most people. Not to mention the soundtrack; which was perfect. I would definitely watch The Secret Life of Walter Mitty again.
P.S. I want a slice of clementine cake.
