Being Julia

I was reading through the Oscar nominations. Besides the usual suspects there are always the smaller films I hadn't heard about.

Have any WENN fans come across the movie "Being Julia" with Annette Bening? The description of the diva actress of the London stage going through a midlife crisis in the late 1930s... ring any bells? Unfortunately I'd have to go to the hinterlands of DC theaters to even see it, so I may have to wait for the dvd. Or hope it gets a wider release with the nomination. (It's based off W. Somerset Maugham's novel "Theatre".)

LOL - I thought the same thing when I read the synopsis. I'll have to wait til it's released to DVD before I see it (unless it wins an Oscar, and then our Wynnsong 16 may deem it viewable in our college town).

No, I haven't... sounds like something I should look up! LOL
