We watched The Name of the Rose last night. We had a decent-sized TV at our disposal and thought that film would look "pretty". It looked pretty good, but it's wasn't "pretty". God, those Medieval people were dirty! I sure appreciate my shower.

It has been a while since I last saw this film and enjoyed it once again. Sean Connery is yummy and whatever happened to Christian Slater? Good period piece in a period I don't seem to see protrayed in many movies.

The young monk/crazy girl sex in the book is one of the most deliciously lusty passages I've ever read. It's not quite as yummy in the film, but it'll do.
