Lost in the Movies

These are pictures of the Strand theatre, in Rockland, where I used to go to the movies when I was a child. It was an old fashioned movie theatre with a balcony. I loved sitting up in the balcony and throwing popcorn on the heads of the people below, after the lights went down and before the movie actually started. I was a mischievous child. I still am, only I don't throw popcorn at people anymore.
One thing I love about  movies is getting so lost in the movie when the lights finally come back up you feel as though you are the character in the movie.
I rented the movie The Tourist which I am sure would have been grander in the theatre.
I was looking forward to watching this movie because I love Johnny Depp, not only is he an incredibly talented actor, he's pretty easy to look at, too.
The panoramic view as they rode the train as well as the music playing brought tears to my eyes. It was an incredible combination. My sympathy was for Depp's character Frank, a plain ordinary man who was being used by a seductress, Jolie's character, Elise. As the movie progressed Elise became more of a character I could identify with, I think that's important to any script or story, there must be identification so there can be connection.
As far as being the best movie I have ever watched, the answer would have to be no, but it kept me involved in it. I guessed the ending, which turned out to be correct. However I am not sorry that I rented it. It was a pretty decent movie, Johnny Depp was good. Angelina Jolie was good too. You must pay attention because everything is said in her eyes.
I officially love James Newton Howard, the composer  of the soundtrack. I just want to close my eyes and listen to this beautiful music forever. The beauty of it makes me weep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61s6KoxgtDU
