During daylight hours, Nevile drives round scavenging whatever he needs, and looking for clues to where the "Family" hide out. (They cannot go out in the sunshine). If he fancies taking in a movie, he goes into the local cinema and turns on the projector, when it's time for a new car, he jumps into the latest model & drives through the showroom window, All good fun type stuff. After dark though, it is a different matter, he locks himself in his fortress, and defends it with automatic weapons, floodlights, and fights the enemy who use nothing newer than spears and fire.

After a tiring day it is refreshment watching a romantic comedy but there are evenings when I need some more touching films. Yesterday I watched When A Man Loves A Woman. It is a drama about a family and although there are several other characters in the film the focus is on this family.

and love for them. He worked very well with Brad Pitt who played the role of Tristan, I would have to say that he was definitely the main character in the film as the majority of the story was based around him. He was excellent when working with the animals but I think he looked quite stupid with his long hair. He was a good character and I loved how he had 2 sides. I think the scenes when he was releasing the bear inside him showed him in a bad light but when he was at home with the family he changed into a very caring man.
The other brothers were played by Aiden Quinn and Henry Thomas and they too gave great performance and I loved the relationship they all had. There were a lot of supporting actors in the film but the main one for me was Gordon Tootoosis who played One Stab, the Indian who lived and worked on the ranch with the family. He ...
