Remember when I posted about this movie a little while back? Well, tonight Taro and I attended the New York Premiere, at the gorgeous Ziegfeld Theater.The movie was beyond wonderful. Inspiring, funny, moving, educational, suspenseful. One of the best flicks I've seen in ages. Oh, and the Academy should just cut to the chase and give Mr. Firth his Best Actor Oscar already. His performance is freaking phenomenal. Unforgettable.
We had a glorious, glamorous time and I loved every moment of the film, but I have to say, the highlight of my evening was when we arrived home. We've never stayed out so late (10:30!) so the boys have never been put to bed by the sitter before. Well, we tiptoed in the door to find the two kiddos asleep, entwined in each other's arms in the bed. It was the sweetest thing I've ever seen, and it gave me such a sense of peace and happiness to know that they have each other. The fact that they already rely on each other for comfort and security is just so beautiful. I love them so much individually, but the image of them cuddling and snoring in our absence really clarified my sense of loving them so much as a unit. And I know this is just the beginning of a lifetime of camaraderie and closeness. They are so lucky.
And I am luckier than both of them put together.

ReplyDeleteI missed getting to go to that premiere by seconds (our CEOs gave away their two tickets and it was a first-to-reply situation). Now looking forward to asking my colleagues about it.
i'm so glad you were able to go, and that the boys were cuddly asleep when you got home!
ReplyDeleteThat is just about the sweetest image I've heard in a very long time.
ReplyDeleteFlooded with goose bumps & tears picturing them ...
Picturing you picturing them.

Ahhh! Oh my gosh, the image of your boys cuddling makes me smile so much! And it gets me excited for the bond Devon will share with her little sister. Happy you enjoyed a much-deserved date night...sometimes we need them, right? :) xx

love.
ReplyDeletethat is so, so sweet.
ReplyDeletewow, what a sweet sight to come home to!
ReplyDeletecan i ask what made the movie rated R?

Allegra, in my view the R rating is unwarranted. There is no sex, violence, untoward themes, or language -- with the exception of two very short scenes where the king curses very prolifically. Basically, he says the f-word a bunch of times in a row. The outburst is played for humor and shows the character basically trying to loosen-up and express himself in a private therapy session at the encouragement of his therapist.
