David McK (3233 KP) rated Some Like It Hot (1959) in Movies
Jan 8, 2021
Classic Billy Wilder comedy farce, starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis (doing his Carey Grant impersonation), with the latter two playing down on their luck musicians who witness a mafia murder during the Prohibition Era of the 1920s and hatch a plan to escape Chicago by joining an all-girl band (enter Monroe) in drag in order to escape.
Full of sizzling one liners/repartee such as:
"Water Polo? Isn't that awfully dangerous? "
"I'll say. I had two horses drown under me..."
(I think it was 2)
and who can forger the final line of the film ("nobody's perfect")!

he topic for this months book club pick, was a book made into a movie. And since I bought this book years ago I thought I would read it.
What a disappointment.
I thought it was going to be loosely based on the classic novel by Jane Austen, when in actuality it's her novel word for word, but with a few zombies thrown in for good measure....oh and also ninjas, because that makes sense.
I thought this book had quite a good sense of premise about it, but come on get a bit of originality.
I wouldn't particularly reccomend this book.

Emily (1430 KP) rated A Midsummer Night's Dream in Ludlow Castle (Ludlow, United Kingdom) in Shows
Apr 21, 2021 (Updated Apr 21, 2021)
Saw this years ago in the Ludlow summer festival, they had the staging set up in the castle, which was a fab setting. Scene with the night's watch was brilliant - they had a dog on a rope lead which, whilst the actor was saying his part was walking around and around him tying him up, actors on stage were trying their hardest not to laugh, but the audience were in hysterics so eventually none of them could stay straight-faced. Actor got himself disentangled, they carried on as if nothing had happened, excellent production.

All About The Stone
Romancing The Stone- is a classic action-adventure film. It has a great cast and director.
The plot: A dowdy romantic-adventure writer is hurled into a real-life adventure in the Colombian jungle in order to save her sister, who will be killed if a treasure map is not delivered to her captors. She is helped out by a brash mercenary, and together they search for the priceless gem located in the map.
Micheal Douglas and Danny DeVito are the best parts of this film. Also Robert Zemeckis directed it. Its a good film.

Dean (6925 KP) rated Dexter - Season 8 in TV
Jan 23, 2021
Do you remember the Monsters?
So the final series of what has been a classic show. No wonder it won so many awards and accolades. This series has Dexter trying to balance his life along with his dark passenger. After the ending of the last series how will his relationship with Deb be effected. So it feels slightly different to the majority of the previous series formats. It's still very good although the final episode and ending was rather disappointing to an excellent show. Let's wait and see where the new series picks up.
