"Mary Miller is one of my favorite short story writers and in Big World, she writes about flawed, boozy women who make bad decisions and live to tell their tales. The writing in this little collection is atmospheric and claustrophobic and illuminating and lovely. In each story, Miller shows us how the world is as big as it is small."

I enjoyed this but very similar to the Guest List, perhaps not quite as intricate. I found it quite frustrating that we got to meet so many characters but very few of them were actually involved with the final plot. Also the decoy was FAR too obvious.

Atmospheric Masterpiece
A spooky psychological suspense/horror film that will draw you in and get under your skin. Set in the famously huge Danvers asylum, which has been closed for years, we start with a 5-guy asbestos clean-up crew charged with making the building safe for renovations. We end with...something else. Just watch! And probably rewatch because it begs for it.

Driver
Ryan Gosling plays (Driver) and he plays an absolute blinder in this dark and atmospheric film. Despite portraying this loner, quiet type, well mannered cool looking mechanic. Driver (that's all we know him by) has another side to him. The whole LA city thing is just shot perfectly. I can't get enough of this film, it's that good.

Have you heard of Gertrude Bell, no neither had I. Another bit of unknown history that nobody really knows. The film is a bit ploddy and seams to drag in places but the scenery and music is quite atmospheric and if you watch this film, watch it for that. Quite interesting though and makes you wish that this was taught in history in schools otherwise it will soon be forgotten.
