The Interpreter

All I wanted to do on Wed night was pass time b4 the eagerly-waited Liverpool-Chelsea champions league clash.

But what I didn't count on was the bonus that came with it.

Caught The Interpreter with Kok Ann at Orchard Cineleisure at midnight, and was enthrilled by the sterling display of Nicole Kidman.

This was no Moulin Rouge-ish or Practical Magic-ish movie - it was an action-thriller, and one that probably stretched her acting ability.

Besides, it was the first movie actually shot at the United Nations HQ in NYC.

Amazing.

It helped that Nicole Kidman still looked so stunning at the age of 38 (I swear it's the hair plus THAT look).

The script was smart and engaging, the cinematography top-class, and her portrayal was haunting... loved the mind games, and the bus scene.
