I think that's about the most accurate description of The Libertine I've come across. It's not really an easy movie to explain. "It's good at dying of syphilis"? "It's filmed to look sootier than Silent Hill"? I really do GET what they were trying with it, and I think they succeeded pretty masterfully, but...it's not one to pop in for multiple viewings. Hats off to Johnny Depp for that one, though.

And I thought Keira Knightley was pretty out of place compared to everyone else in P&P, but oh man most of this was indeed eclipsed by the ~*HOT*~ of Darcy... I...may have to look into Spooks.
