My Blueberry Nights


Just how terrible is this film, My Blueberry Nights, going to be? Any film with a lead who's a something-turned-actress is always going to be bad. We've all been tortured by Elle McPherson, Liz Hurley and Naomi Campbell onscreen. So Norah Jones playing a mysterious woman who eats blueberry pies and travels across America to find the true meaning of love is going to suck. Add to this the fact that Jude Law is in the film. He plays the shopkeeper who sells Norah the blueberry pies and falls in love with her. With that dodgy long hair, fake American accent and the same acting skills as a Louis XIV chair, Jude isn't exactly going to offset Norah's lack of experience on the big screen. If you're unfortunate enough to have seen Alfie you'll know to give My Blueberry Nights a miss.

However, Wong Kar Wai is directing the film. That, in itself, is pretty promising.

Your an idiot. Wong Kar Wai films rule undeniably. Debut actresses have had strong and even stellar performances. You pick the few duds who were models not performers. I'm sure Nora'll do fine.
