pleasantly surprised

Last night, I finally watched Masked and Anonymous, starring, among others, Bob Dylan. To be entirely honest, I was a little nervous that it might suck, especially when I saw that Roger Ebert had it on his list of the worst movies of 2003. A lot of the reviews have been, uh, less than complimentary.

So, I watched it. And I liked it. Yeah, the story was a bit complicated, a little too obtuse in places, but overall, I was not at all sorry that I bought this dvd. I wondered if maybe it is a film strictly for Dylan fans, but Gram is not particularly fond of Mr. Dylan (although she tolerates him) and she was fascinated, too. Check it out of your library (usually for free or a very nominal fee) and see what you think.
