Movie reviews for the day (FM&LB)

Rico says he's watched a couple of good ones, and stopped watching a really bad one:

Fat Man and Little Boy, starring Paul Newman as General Leslie R. Groves, Dwight Schultz as J. Robert Oppenheimer with Bonnie Bedelia as his wife, and John Cusack, along with a host of other good actors including Laura Dern, Natasha Richardson, and John Considine, about the Manhattan Project, the secret wartime project, located in Los Alamos, New Mexico, where the first atomic bombs were designed and built.

Simon and the Oaks, starring Bill Skarsgård as Simon Larsson, about two boys coming of age in Sweden during World War Two.

A Southern Yankee, starring Red Skelton.  Excruciatingly bad... (And note that the poster is in color, but says 'in glorious black & white'. Bait & switch?)
