"David Lean is always known for his big productions. Lawrence of Arabia, The Bridge on the River Kwai . . . But I’m particularly fond of some of his smaller, black-and-white films. And Oliver Twist is an extraordinary piece of work."

I would go nuts without this app

I have a kindle paperwhite, and I frequently access kindle cloud reader, but this is how I access books when I'm on my phone. Between the three (plus my audible app), there's very little time I can't find a way to sneak a few pages in.

The Amazon Kindle app rarely messes up, keeps all my books nice and tidy, and I like the options to read in different colors rather than just black on white. (I'm a huge fan of white on black.)

Slick cinematography, dark tales

This film's graphic novel style cinematography is original, effective and beautiful to behold. The black and white effect with certain colours highlighted reminded me of looking at old style comics. The multiple stories that mesh together are all extremely dark, from serial murders to molestation and exploitation, it's Rated R for a very good reason. And while the Tarantino style gore can be surprisingly easy on the eye especially in black and white, it seemed extreme at times, filmed for the sake of being violent.
