About That Popular 'Black Films Don't Sell ...Watch Now - Anika Noni Rose Haunts Pierce Brosnan In Adaptation Of Stephen King's "Bag Of Bones"
Anyone catch part 1 of A&E's 4-hour miniseries, Bag of Bones (an adaptation of Stephen King's award-winning 1998 novel), which co-stars Anika Noni Rose, when it aired last night?
I didn't (no cable TV).
The 2-hour conclusion will air tonight, by the way.
If you missed part 1, and are interested in watching it, and, like me, don't have cable TV, or just didn't DVR it, you can watch all 2 hours of it right now on A&E's website HERE.
The two-day event, based on the Stephen King horror novel, also stars Pierce Brosnan, Annabeth Gish, Melissa George, William Schallert and Caitlin Carmichael.
Anika plays Sara Tidwell, a dead blues singer who was raped and forced to witness the murder of her young child, and now wants revenge. Her ghost haunts the house of bestselling novelist Brosnan who is fighting a bitter custody battle - according to the Stephen King novel anyway. I'm not sure if all of that is translated to the screen adaptation, because I haven't seen it.
The images above and below are Anika in character.

Watching the first part was like joyless sex: a lot of effort was put into it, you knew what parts were supposed to affect you but you just couldn't force yourself to feel anything. 2nd part didn't make up for the first part. At least they got paid.

Not bad, maybe a little melodramatic. It picked up in the 2nd half. Anika was good, as was Bronson. Good thrills too.
