You make me broke with your recommendations but you haven’t steered me wrong yet. I’m most interested in the book and that groovy CD. Thanks.

White Collar’s premier episode was one of the best! Hooked!

This was some busy weekend for you, PCN. Chéri still sounds like one of those kinds of film that SWMBO might watch with me (I guess I can gaze at Michelle Pfeiffer, for a short bit, at least). And if the sound engineers didn't work their magic on her, that is one impressive voice on SJ, and that track. And we still seem to have that eerie thing going - check out Corey's review of that same novel (and the comments). Wonderful post, as always, PCN.

I admit I’m ambivalent toward Scarlett Johansson’s “talents”, but since the recommendations came from you, gave the video a chance and was pleasantly surprised! It reminds me a little bit of the Matt & Kim duo from Brooklyn (check out their “Daylight” song).

Thanks for sharing what seems to have been a great PC weekend!

I love that Yorn/Scarlett song! I’ve listened to it 5 times already. You’re right—can’t get it out of my head.

I saw that Chéri came out last week and was going to rent it because I love Michelle Pfeiffer. It’s too bad you can’t recommend it more highly. I might see it anyway because you at least said Michelle was good.

That book has a gorgeous cover! I’m all about the cover so I think I’m going to check this out. Oh, and your review helped, too. 🙂

Busy weekend much?

Saw CHERI because of Michelle, but agree with your assessment. She’s wonderful, but I was really apathetic about it.

Knew Scarlett and Yorn had collaborated, but hadn’t listened to any tracks. You picked a good one to whet my appetite.

Everyone’s gushing about WHITE COLLAR, but I thought it was just okay. The visuals were pretty good, but I kept nodding off. Even during a re-viewing, it’s just not compelling enough for me.

Not such a big fan of the new additions to the cast of GREY’S ANATOMY. They barely have enough story to involve the current cast, why are adding people? The ax in the chest was pretty cool though.

As for VIOLET HOUR: You were right about A BAD DAY FOR SORRY (finished last Thursday night. Thanks again), DARK PLACES (finished a week ago). So, VIOLET gets added to the stack.

O.k., I had to jump over THE VIOLET HOUR since it is in my TBR stack, but loved reading about your PC weekend. I had DEXTER and CASTLE from the library but didn’t manage to get either one in my DVD player before the end of the weekend. I’ll have to borrow them again, I guess. Sheesh, this blasted day job sure gets in the way of everything fun!! LOL

Oh, another smorgasbord ~ you’re truly a quality nerd, PCN! I’d listen to something else in an attempt to drive that Peter Yorn/Scarlett Johansson song out of my brain, but I’m kind of enjoying looping it at the moment. I like the timbre of her voice!

Thanks for all the other reviews, too. I’m not sure how far away we are from starting up with Grey’s Anatomy again ~ last season we were only a few weeks behind you, so hopefully it’s nearly upon us.
