Sunday afternoon and a little bit of rain means a day in front of the telly. Channel 5 were showing While You Were Sleeping, a film I hadn't seen in forever. The Luce stopped over just as it started and we settled down to enjoy a spot of Sandra Bullock.

I watched the opening credits in awe, not realising how many familiar names were in the film. The Luce very kindly pointed out that a large percentage of the supporting cast were no longer with us, and I came to the conclusion that I have not watched this film at any point in this century. Now I know why. While You Were Sleeping is not a bad film, it just isn't a good film either. I often found my attention wandering - not the greatest of signs.

Considering how much of this seemed new to me, this film was predictable, and not all that interesting. Either I've matured, or it hasn't aged well. Or both.

I think it will be another 15 years before I watch this again.
