Dirty Harry (1971)
Dirty Harry (1971)
1971 | Classics, Drama, Mystery
The iconic masterpiece that cemented Eastwoods Hollywood career, and was one of the 1970's best vigilante cop movies to boot.
He shares screen time with a 357 Magnum and delivered the "Do you feel lucky, punk" phrase that has become synonymous with cop movies since.
Not the best film in Eastwoods career but one that sticks out in pop culture and is enduring.

The Sunflowers documentary is not just for art lovers, the production is a delight to watch for anyone that has or hasn’t got an eye for art, it’s a fascinating journey that is a pure delight to watch, I would recommend that if you get the chance to see Sunflowers then grab the chance and give your life a little bit of culture.

An exciting read (1 more)
An insight into another culture
A strong writing style and gripping story
Even though the story itself may seem far fetched, Kirino writes in a way that captures the bleakness and monotony of the women's lives and makes everything they feel, say and do seem so relatable and real that you don't question their motives or seemingly unrealistic decisions.
One of my favourite things about this book was portrayal of uncomfortable family dynamics and the odd state of limbo these women lived in, professionally and personally - something like looking into a window on another culture and generation.
It's a story that manages to be shocking, gruesome, almost inhuman but still somehow so comparable to our own world.

YA contemporary
For the most part I really enjoyed Darius the Great is Not Ok by Adib Khorram. This young adult contemporary novel was heart wrenching and at times heart breaking to read. At times I felt like the main character Darius was a little over the top with how sensitive he was but for the most part I was rooting for him to rise up. This was a great story showing the struggles of living with depression while trying to find yourself and dealing with the teenage awkwardness of growing up. I completely felt for Darius and could relate to a lot of his struggles throughout the book, especially with trying to see where he fit in with his culture and being the only one standing awkwardly to the side not understanding the language of his heritage. I really loved all of the characters and learning about this culture and I would definitely recommend.
