More December films..
Dec. 15th, 2006 12:35 am48. Secretary. OK I'd seen it before but it's a film!
Actually I liked it much better this time - I think it was too mortified to enjoy it when I saw it in the cinema as best Pal and I had planned to go and were in end joined by BP;s daughter (sub age of consent) and BP's sister in law (rather very well OVER age of consent.) I didn't quite know where to put myself.. (under the seat mostly) but this time I thought James Spader was far more shy and worried than sleazy, and Maggie G far more in control than sexually harassed - which is as it should be. I'd also competely imagined a coda in which the neighbours get up in arms at having a respectable married S & M couple living in their neighbourhood - I was waiting for that, and then it was the end of the film!! We-ird..
