Crit

Variation on being annoyed at neighboring viewers who chatter through the end-credits music: annoyance at neighboring viewers who chatter through a recital of "Ode to a Nightingale"; but here's a tribute to the power of Keats's poetry: after a couple of stanzas, they shut up!

What this film shows us is that one of the greatest poets of the past two centuries can still employ the same clichés as any other 20-something when Cupid strikes.

Trailers

• Motherhood--Looks like a waste of Uma Thurman and Minnie Driver.
• The Young Victoria--Another costumer (yawn!).
• The Burning Plain--No.
