2 movies and a bag

We had a holiday last Thursday and it was cold... the 4 days on holiday were spent under covers drinking massive amounts of hot tea and watching a lot of tv shows + 2 movies.. Today the sun is shining again and it's almost unbelievable! So pretty!

Thursday we went to the movies and watched Snow White and the Huntsman
The story... good. The effects... pretty cool. The forest where the dwarfs live... wow! Charlize Theron (aka the Evil Queen)... absolutely stunning. The woman is gorgeous, and she delivers a role that wins over the movie. Absolutely incredible. Chris Hemsworth (aka the Huntsman, aka Thor), is great in this role. His acting is great and his emotion is stunning. Besides having that voice... no words are enough. Two of the dwarfs are actors I like, Ian McShane and Bob Hoskins. Now to the problem... the movie would be great if not for Kristen Stewart. While she is pretty, in no way could she be considered the fairest of them all, especially compared to Charlize. Besides that... the girl only has one expression, so acting skills... none. When she's happy, sad, devastated, scared, weak, finds courage.... it's all the same. And her same is bland. I kept thinking of other actresses that would have rocked that part, like Meghan Ory, Katie Holmes or Zooey Deschanel. Kristen ruined the movie for me. I tried to ignore her and focus on the rest, but since she played Snow she was there all the time. Bummer. Worth watching for the rest, though. 

Yesterday we watched The Vow.
I absolutely loooooove Rachel McAdams (aka Paige) and Channing Tatum (aka Leo). Both make me want to watch movies they are in without even checking what it's about. The movie is based on a real story, this couple is crazy in love, they have a car accident and she has no memory of him, their marriage, anything in the last 6 years. They are both great in this movie, it's sweet, funny, sad, dramatic all rolled up in a beautiful, captivating movie -- + the gorgeous people. She would also have made a better Snow. Jessica Lange is great in the role of Paige's mom.

The best part of my holiday was probably this bag.
Gorgeous, right? I know!!!
It´s from Jo Totes, they make camera bags for women. Yes, that´s a camera bag, it´s gorgeous, perfect, and after 3 years of working with photography I guess I deserved it. :) 
Beautiful gift from my hubbie. I´m in love... with him and the bag.

Have a great week!
