OMG Baz Lurman wins 13 AACTA Awards for The Great Gatsby!

Thanks for the warning Icy, we might go & see The Book Thief instead lol

It's funny isn't it but I also loved Moulin Rouge and the one I didn't like at all was Australia.  

The second time it was on tv I enjoyed it a little bit more but the first time it was so different to what I was expecting that I thought it was really dumb.

Haha Joono, I thought Moulin Rouge was really dumb. It just shows that we all have different taste lol

[j*oono]

It couldn't possibly be dumb, Deb.  It had Ewen McGregor in it 

[debra9275]

Lol it was so dumb, I couldn't bear to watch it.

What about Strictly Ballroom!  I love that movie and I only found out last night that it was one of Baz Luhrmann's.

That one was better than Moulin Rouge -:)

I didn't know that was one of his.  It seemed more low key than some of his others.  But very good, I loved it.

It was good wasn't it.  Even that one when you think about it did have Luhrmann type characters in it.  Very full on and in your face.
