I saw this movie Stardust recently. I was feeling a bit blue and wanted something to perk me up. For once all of my other friends had seen this highly rated movie before I had. So I decided to spend another lonely Friday night at the theatre watching Stardust. The movie was excellently made with a great production value. The story though simple and probably based of so many fairytales put together ( I sure a lot of you will end up saying it is copied from hindi or tam cinema) but it was refreshing all the same. The movie had Claire Dane in the lead role with Michelle Pfieffer playing a witch, At 50 you couldn’t tell her apart from a blossoming 25 yr old. The surprise element in the movie for me was Robert Di Nero for I did not know he was in the movie. He was a touch brilliant ( as usual!!) playing an eccentric hip captain. The movie was so cleanly taken with no swear words or even a nipple shown and yet managed to keep me enthralled. All in all a mut watch at a theatre near you!
