52) Lost boys: The Tribe. New kids move to Santa Clara and end up needing help from Edgar Frog when they run afoul of vampires. Eminently forgettable. (p)
53) National Treasure. Ben is following the family path, seeking the lost treasure of the ages, clues to which are scattered throughout the writings of the Founding Fathers. Silly, fun and generally innocuous. Sean Bean as the villainous British man. (f, 1)
54) Gothic. Mary and Percy Shelley and Mary's half-sister Claire, spend a stormy weekend with Lord Byron and his lover, Dr. Pollodori. Sexier than I remembered, this smart little horror film just pants. Pollodori is slavishly devoted to Byron, Bryon is desperately in love with Shelley, Shelley adores everyone. And Mary is freaked by it all. Scary, stylish and not very linear. (f,3)
55) Saved! This was funnier than I expected. It traces friends in their senior year at a Christian school. One is pregnant by her gay boyfriend, one is Jewish, one is in a wheelchair. They face off against the holiest blonde girl in town. Macauley Culkin is hilarious. Very realistic. Much more fun because I was watching another recovering fundamentalist and we snarked it hard. (p)
