I've been reading Meg's blog of ex-boyfriends, book & movie reviews for as long as I've been reading D2D. I found her essay about DC in early November. But this forum has taken up so much of my free time lately, I forgot all about it until just a couple of hours ago, when I stumbled upon it in my favorites list. Enjoy!

Meg's Boyfriend of the Week
Crazy!
Elaine - I really like how this woman writes - my kinda gal. Thanks for the link - lots of other celeb writeups as well.
That said, when I heard the final choice was Daniel Craig, I will confess I did a slight double-take. Not because I approved or disapproved, but because I'd never even heard of him, and since when are we casting total nobodies as James "Household-Name" Bond? I filed Dan's name away for later investigation just in case there was something I didn't know that everybody else knew, but I never got around to it. And then one Tuesday evening I came home from work to discover a red envelope from Netflix in my mailbox. And inside that red envelope was the DVD of the latest Spielberg film, Munich, starring none other than. . . drumroll please. . . Daniel Craig.
Anyway, as I said, Daniel's character doesn't have a huge part in Munich. He's mostly just there, steady-armed and ready to fire. But despite the fact the film is packed with handsome devils, for some bizarre reason it was Daniel I had a dream about that night. . . Now, hooooold on there, girls -- don't get all excited thinking it was something dirty. The reality is a lot more bland. Instead, the dream essentially consisted of Daniel hitting on me in a bar, and my husband punching his lights out. Yes, sir, you heard that one correctly: my husband TKO'd James Bond!
In any case, I took this as a sign, and the next morning, I looked Daniel up on Netflix and put several of his films in my queue. First to arrive was a little movie called The Mother. I had no idea what to expect from it -- I didn't recognize any of the actors and had never heard of it. But damned if it didn't also completely blow my mind.
It's about an older woman named May whose husband dies suddenly. It takes her a few weeks to realize that instead of being devastated by her loss, she's liberated by it. Deciding it's time for a change, May moves to London and begins splitting her time between her son's house and her daughter's. Mostly, she has nothing to do, wandering somewhat aimlessly around the city, but then one day she happens to strike up a conversation with a guy working on her son's house. The workman, Darren (Craig), is a young man, strong and grizzled-looking (mrrrrow!), who is also, coincidentally, sleeping with May's daughter. The two end up enjoying each other's company and soon begin having tea together each afternoon. Tea eventually progresses to lunch, which eventually progresses to lunch out, which eventually progresses to. . . ahem . . . yep, cover your ears, kiddies, S-E-X. A granny and a young man! Hoo, mama!
