THURSDAY MOVIE CONNECTION. Every Thursday in 2012, I am connecting movies through actors.

March is all MUSICALS!

In honor of Alfred Hitchcock's death on April 29, 1980, April is dedicated to Hitch, and all my favorites.

In a Day, 2006




Director: Evan Richards
Stars: Lorraine Pilkington, Finlay Robertson







I don't know how I found this. Netflix is so great! This is one of those indie-dramas, and usually I am not into those, but anything that takes place in the UK I have a bit of interest in, and then as it went on, I found I really liked it!

Ashley (Pilkington) is having a very bad day (I almost turned it off when a guy started using the most awful language toward her, and then threw his hot coffee on her! Actually, I did turn off at the language part, and then just as it turned off he threw his coffee, and I was curious as to how she was going to react so I turned it back on, and after that I watched the whole thing.). Then a stranger, Michael (Robertson), offers to buy her a drink, then they go shopping, then lunch, then she gets her hair done. Michael tells her that someone wants her to have a great day, and that is why he's doing all this.

Besides the language- which for England is normal, I suppose- I loved it. So I don't want to say anything else about it. I will say, though, that I liked how they weren't super famous people, and they were very normal-looking. I mostly watched it because Michael was so sweet and real. I could imagine him as my own friend.
