SOUGHT OUT

Today's movie was the last episode on the current Legend of the Seeker disc.

I am way more than half way through the first season. One more disc to go.

In this one there is a look alike mirror that lets two con artists look like Kahlan and Richard.

It is a lot of fun. Mistaken identity always is. It allows the actors to be free of their usual straight laced performances and let it hang out some.

Best is a nude swimming scene between Richard and the other "Kahlan" which almost but not quite breaks the rule that they will never, ever be able to consummate their love.

And so on.

There are many permutations and combinations to be tried before the episode is over and, at times, the viewer is kept guessing about who is who. An old dramatic routine but very effective nonetheless.
