What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;

How peaceful life would be without love, Adso.
How safe.
How tranquil.
And how dull.
-- The Name of The Rose

Not many worthy new movies to steal lately, so I resorted to re-watching good old classics. It's been ten years since I last saw The Name of The Rose. Darn but it was great to watch it again. I was also pleasantly surprised to see a scene I haven't remember: a young monk getting his first taste of carnal pleasures. I bet the Pope would call it sinning, but hey, what's in a name, right?

Sean Connery and very young Christian Slater. Dark monastery full of creepy monks. Murder. Intrigue. Gore. Sex. Great atmosphere. As intelligent entertainment goes, there is not much better than this.
