and i love that she's beautiful but not plastic in any way
Exactly. Just like Viggo.:D
i didn't dislike renee in this, and that surprised me a bit
Well, it appears you're not the only one. Roger Ebert said in his review that she was fabulous, or something to that effect (which completely stunned me, btw). But to me she just seemed so... artificial. But then again, maybe that was because the character she played was meant to be like that... There wasn't one ounce of sincerity about her, and it just completely threw me off. In comparison, Ariadna seemed even more appealing - she was who she was and didn't even try to pretend to be anyone else. If you know what I mean.;)
I just couldn't for the life of me comprehend why Virgil did not jump on his horse and ride off after Everett at the end.:P
