Movie Question

[smello]

MC, are there any plans to show "Don't tempt me" (Sin noticias de dios) with Penelope Cruz anytime soon ?? OR, does anyone know where I can get a copy ??
Thanks.

This looks like the movie you want, Smello. It’s available from Take 2 (here) (http://www.take2.co.za/dvd-dont-tempt-me-612489.html) at R112. Take note, however, that it is an NTSC (region 1) DVD, so ensure that your player is capable of handling it.

“Penelope Cruz and Victoria Abril are arch enemies in the Faustian tale DON'T TEMPT ME. Sent to Earth to determine the fate of boxer Manny (Demian Bichir), Lola (Abril) is an angel from Heaven, and Carmen (Cruz) is a devil pulled out of the vortex of Hell. For Lola, the mission is a chore, a nightmare, and puts her at risk for losing her cushy celestial spot. For Carmen, it is a gift, a vacation, and the one chance she has for redemption. Manny is stuck in the middle of these two manic forces, who must influence his decision to either stick with his competitive boxing career and risk a brain hemorrhage, or quit and save himself. At either end of the spectrum are higher forces. Gael Garcia Bernal plays the slick and slimy Davenport (read: Satan), ruling the chaotic, violent red regions of Hell from which Carmen was sprung. In Heaven, a lovely white oasis of cabaret and leisure time, Fanny Ardant is a graceful Marina D'Angelo who encourages Lola with her singing career. A witty and amusing film in French (Heaven), Spanish (Earth), and English (Hell), with many moments of tongue-in-cheek insight on the battle of good versus evil, director Augustin Diaz Yanes has spun an entertaining yarn with DON'T TEMPT ME.”.

Looks interesting! :)

Now THAT is what I call a helpful reply. Many thanks for the effort, I appreciate it.

Further investigations have revealed that the whole movie is on YouTube. If you download the relevant free software, you can give it a try.

[Dennis]

Thanks for the info, smello. While I have the software, my current 3G bandwidth doesn’t allow for too much downloading. However, with ADSL prices starting to drop, I’ll be looking at better options when my contract expires in 2 months.

:D

[Dennis]

I shall certainly take that advice into account. Thank you, Linda.

Enjoy it while it lasts! All new providers are good in the beginning -- the trick is does the services STAY good as their system gets loaded and is expected to service more customers!

It would be very interesting if you post periodically what the performance is like

[linda]

So far so good.going into our 3rd month with them.no problems..queries dealt with quickly and efficiently..very happy with the service...and if by anychance you use up the 5 gigs it's R29 per gig to top up..Also no contract ..so should you wish to cancel no problem..will keep you updated

[linda]

I forgot to say Geoff D..dont be so pessamistic..enjoy it while it lasts...bah humbug...you have to be optimistic in this life otherwise whats the point..and if we don't support the newcomers what then..you have to give them a chance..

[Theo]

I'm thinking of changing as well, FaceBook takes a lot of Megs. :-(
