MOVIE TRAILERS

great cast, will check this out

I absolutely love Wilkinson. He is one of the best actors out there and it's worth me seeing it just because he's in it. Some movies you want to see because of the director or the screenplay. I don't even have to know what the movie is about when Wilkinson's a part of it because he gives 110% to any role he's in.

Abited breath, what, ok, I feel compelled to correct you so you don't walk around sounding like an idiot. I pasted this btw... The correct spelling is actually bated breath but it’s so common these days to see it written as baited breath that there’s every chance that it will soon become the usual form, to the disgust of conservative speakers and the confusion of dictionary writers. Examples in newspapers and magazines are legion; this one appeared in the Daily Mirror on 12 April 2003: “She hasn’t responded yet but Michael is waiting with baited breath”. It’s easy to mock, but there’s a real problem here. Bated and baited sound the same and we no longer use bated (let alone the verb to bate), outside this one set phrase, which has become an idiom. Confusion is almost inevitable. Bated here is a contraction of abated through loss of the unstressed first vowel (a process called aphesis); it means “reduced, lessened, lowered in force”. So bated breath refers to a state in which you almost stop breathing as a result of some strong emotion, such as terror or awe. Shakespeare is the first writer known to use it, in The Merchant of Venice, in which Shylock says to Antonio: “Shall I bend low and, in a bondman’s key, / With bated breath and whisp’ring humbleness, / Say this ...”. Nearly three centuries later, Mark Twain employed it in Tom Sawyer: “Every eye fixed itself upon him; with parted lips and bated breath the audience hung upon his words, taking no note of time, rapt in the ghastly fascinations of the tale”.

Sexy Beast was truly awesome and that was my first exposure to Ray Winstone (that I can recall), and I thought he was fantastic. This looks like it should be right up there. Decent trailer and there's some absolute heavy hitters on screen. Should be a good one! Now if only they could dust off Don Logan...

@linkwonthechef: If you're so worried about 'bated breath' turning into 'baited breath', how come you don't care that 'abated' became 'bated', who cares really, the hardcore word trackers will still no where it comes from. @E: Because they had inches before america did, just america hasn't changed their standards at all, whereas the british use both depending on the situation. This movie does look pretty good, I'm interested, on my to see list.
