*grins* I knew you'd like it. Especially the part where Septimus and Tristian are duelling, and the ghosts all look at Septimus and he just spreads his hands in a "don't look at me!" type of way. That scene practically defines for me the value of having actors rely on their acting as opposed to spoken lines.
*love, love, loves movie* And I agree with you - the soul is what's important. It's really difficult to keep a good balance, though, and I respect the scriptwriters who manage it. It's especially difficult because everyone has their own interpretation of what the 'soul' truly is (because everyone, without exception, confuses some of the trimmings for the soul), but when they get it - ah, when they get it - then you get something like this beautiful little thing. It's beautiful.
...and if that last paragraph makes no sense, it's because I need sleep. Sorry.
Soooo, who else thinks that Stardust needs a good fandom right about now?
