    Secondhand Lions

    I just saw the new movie Secondhand Lions staring Robert Duval and Michael Caine. It was a fun and entertaining movie and it had fencing.

    The sword master for this film was the whip master for the Mark of Zorro.

    Secondhand Lions has fencing? We're talking the movie with Haley Joel Osment right? He calls the pig a dog? Wow, didn't expect fencing in that one.

    Osmont is not in any of the fencing scenes. That is a releif. Well he is in the scene with Duval and a toilet plunger. I won't tell you, you will just have to see it.

    The 'fencing scenes' are all flashback of Duval as a young man, so none of the scenes are with the stars. This is all done with large sabres and scimitars.

    ooo Interesting. I was already planning on seeing it, but this just adds all the more reason to go.
