Very interesting (and excellent) cast. Paul Rudd, Paul Giamatti, Jeff Daniels, and Guy Pierce all step outside their general wheel houses and bring together a wonderful performance about a true chain of events that unfolded during World War II.

As a Red Sox fan I had a general idea of the story surrounding Moe Berg, but I was enlightened about several different elements of the story by the movie and even more so I was driven to do additional research and found out even more information about this unheralded American Hero.

If you're looking for an action romp this isn't where you'll find it. This is a movie that will capture your imagination and you will almost forget that this is all based on a true story.

We read this book for the third month of my book club, when I read the blurb, I thought it sounded great and wanted to get stuck in straight away. My excitement was short lived, lasting only a few pages, i found it boring and dull, too long winded and by halfway through i was tired of the book. By the time i had 50 pages left i was ready to give up. If i had bought this book myself i would have put it down straight away. It was only the fact that it was for book club that i carried on with it I was so disappointed by this book that sounded like it had so much potential.

Hemlock Grove is about a family of Upirs (vampires), a werewolves and witches, all trying to keep their identities hidden from the rest of the town. Each season has a different ‘story’: mainly murders.
I watched Hemlock Grove not really knowing what is was about, therefore, it didn’t have my full attention to begin with. However, after the first couple of episodes, I was completely hooked and loved it so much.
My only problem is that they kill off all the best characters; a couple of my favourites were killed off.
Overall, I 100% recommend this show to anyone with access to it.*

*It can be found on Netflix (UK, don’t know about other countries).

Album Favorite

"I want the fortunate readers to know that contemporary sounds are not restricted to lighthearted pop. There's as much heaviness available as well. The celebration of punk might be bad in the grand scheme of things but what I'm saying is, you wouldn't catch me digging into my parents’ record collection. You wouldn't want to dare go there. 

The fact that I treasure my friendship, for instance, with Depeche Mode really catches people off guard. But under thorough analysis, Depeche Mode was super-heavy, particularly live. That bottom end, that can only be found through synthesisers. It's earth-shaking. At one point back in the States Depeche Mode was wrongfully tagged and people said, ""Oh, you like that disco-sounding stuff?"" Well it wasn't. It was heavy."
