Read the book a few weeks back...and so compelling and well written now on the sequel.
....and we saw the film yesterday.......
I am glad i started with the book....
This is a bit left-field, but I watched the first episode of The Chinese Detective the other day. Really enjoyed it. From 1981, so there's bits that are uncomfortable, but Alan Ford is superb.
David Yip?
Couple of films we have seen recently and enjoyed
The Quiet Girl - Film 4
Past Lives - BBC

Jason Salkey - From Crimea, With Love.
A warts and all telling of the making of the Sharpe series of TV films. A lot of things make a lot of sense now...

Yes, it’s good. And would have been more diverse than most things of that time.

Watched this film yesterday.
Certainly pertinent for what is happening in the US..
A black comedy....
Well worth seeing
Great acting by Sean Penn

I've been looking forward to this, yorkie. Seen trailers for it in the cinema. Glad it's good.
Watched the Bruce Springsteen biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere on the plane back from Delhi and thoroughly enjoyed it. Not a fan of Bruce when he is rocking out but I have enjoyed his acoustic stuff. This is about the making of his fifth album, Nebraska, and where he was in coping with his rising star.
For my money, Jeremy Allen White does for Springsteen what Val Kilmer did for Jim Morrison... create a new found appreciation of the artist.

Excellent production faithful to the book.
Great acting, great direction, great cinematography.
Might give it a try. I remember having to sit through the 60s film at WBGS and being so bored that I fell asleep - much to the annoyance of our Welsh twat of an English teacher.
Another Saturday morning detention that I never turned up for...
I read the book at school and I saw the film. Can't say I enjoyed either. I can't abide bullies. Far too often these days cautionary tales are taken as instruction manuals, sadly.Might give it a try.

Remarkably Bright Creatures
Sally Field, Lewis Pullman (one of Bill Pulman's kids), Colm Meaney.
Netflix.
Absolutely delightful. Crack open a bottle of wine, a big bowl of nibbles, and keep some tissues handy. A real treat.
