LUST CAUTION

MOVIE SPOILER: DON'T READ IF U INTEND TO WATCH THIS MOVIE...

Okay ever since i moved to china, i have become a non-serious movie person. It's different when u watch dvds in the comfort of ur own home, one is more likely to multitask, have toilet and snack breaks, so light hearted movies are generally preferred.

Anyway, if u want to spend time watching another show with quite a number of naked bodies, catch Viggo Mortensen in the Eastern Promise. Its one of those surprisingly nice mafia shows (of course picked out by Les not me)Viggo was a pleasure to watch, i am glad that he didn't get typecasted into Aragon-like characters his whole career.
