I took the day off Friday and Sweetie went to see Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. What a great movie! It is indeed about an effort to bring salmon fishing to Yemen but it also a great romantic movie. It stars Ewan McGregor as a nerdy fishing expert and Emily Blunt as a financial assistant to a super rich sheikh who is financing the venture. The movie reminded Sweetie and I of Local Hero.
I love this movie. I give it five stars out of five. Go see it while you can

Sounds like something good and intelligent and free of action figures on steroids! Ha. Thanks for this review.
I’ll add that one to the must see list! 🙂
Daughter went to see this film on Maui about a month ago – she too gave it top marks. Just as an aside, how odd that a tiny island should have seen it before Tulsa.
Sounds good. And since it features fishing, maybe steve would agree to go see this movie!
I thought it was a strange title for a movie, but someone else also said this is a great movie. Thanks for seconding the recommendation.
I keep hearing good things about this movie .. Toonman is not a movie theater goer .. he prefers NetFlix DVDs or streaming on the BIG TV
