Danes & Dunst

Neil Gaiman's "Stardust" is not what I would count as one of his finer pieces of work seeing as how it essentially is your generic fantasy novel - boy meets girl, the rest is forgotten a week after reading, yadda yadda ya.

But that Claire Danes has a substantial role in the filmitization of said novel changes things. It's time she get back in the spotlight, and I hope this fantasy moie by the epic Gaiman does for Danes as Shakespeares's epic "Romeo and Juliet" did.



Also looking foward to Sofia Coppola's portrayal of Marie Antoinette, because along with Danes, Dunst needs more love more love more love. Especially after her role in the brilliant "Virgin Suicides".
