[icon name="film" prefix="fas"] | "Elvis" - Interesting story, annoying in-your-face editing, too much mumbling. But it has inspired me to read an Elvis biography... | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="headphones-alt" prefix="fas"] [icon name="book-open" prefix="fas"] | "What Abigail Did That Summer", Ben Aaronovitch. Liked this one too, nice and tightly focussed, foxes rule! | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="book-open" prefix="fas"] | "Heretics of Dune", Frank Herbert. Drawn back to the Duniverse but a bit hard-going, slow story lots of talking | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="tv" prefix="fas"] | "Night Sky" Season 1 - should have checked that season 2 hadn't been canned before I started. Slow going at times but a fun and touching watch. | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="scroll" prefix="fas"][icon name="book" prefix="fas"] | "Why We Get the Wrong Politicians", Isabel Hardman, interesting, frustrating, well written, still want to keep away from politics! | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="scroll" prefix="fas"][icon name="book" prefix="fas"] | "The Idea Factory - Bell Labs and the Great Age of American Innovation", Jon Gertner - would have preferred more science and less personality but that's just me... A great read, and thought provoking, recommended. | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="headphones-alt" prefix="fas"] [icon name="book-open" prefix="fas"] | "Reconstructing Amelia", Kimberley McCreight - Enjoyed this, although the final reveal was slightly too much of a coincidence but the plotting and story structure was intriguing. | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="film" prefix="fas"] | "The Phantom of the Open", tour-def-force acting by Mark Rylance in a enjoyable caper - the sort of movie that seems to be coming something of a British cinema staple. | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
[icon name="film" prefix="fas"] | "The Duke" - great fun, clever cinematography and an BAFTA worthy performance from Jim Broadbent. | [icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"][icon name="star" prefix="fas"] |
