So what to do? Neither of us up for our normal "hit the bars and play last man standing". A film, sounds nice but what? Google the local theatres and there's nowt really to interest both of us ... BOTH, that's the operative word.
Dean Spanley sounded quirky but ... and then Liz had an idea, let's go to Empire Cinema at Island Bay and luxuriate in the large chairs with a wine and the film being shown didn't really matter.
And so we did.
And the film, Dean Spanley, was an absolute joy.
Funny with Peter O'Toole delivering some of the finest one-liners ever.
Quirky with ... well, the whole story.
Story-centric with a fantastic plot/purpose that made ya think.
Actor POV - the 3 main actors are in top notch form delivering on all levels. The supporting actors bring just the right amount of gravitas.
Overall, it was a perfect ending to our Wedding Anniversary.

beautiful film, great performances from Jeremy Northam, Peter O’Toole, Sam Neill and Bryan Brown! A real jewel in a thriller-oriented market.
