"The brilliant chemistry between Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal uniquely and poetically captures a black man and a white man’s friendship and the competing social standards that they each must live by. Diggs plays a man who cannot afford to make the mistakes that his best friend can, and lives in waking fear of a terrible threat that his best friend will never have to confront. The final encounter with the police officer beautifully captures the pressures of carrying a gun (police) vs. the pressure of fearing that gun (black Americans)."

"I love intimate ensemble pieces that allow you to get to know the dynamic amongst a group of characters without overly complex plot lines. The movie certainly made me wish I’d grown up with those people. You know, despite their flaws. They really had such a wonderful, deep love and friendship between them that I think is meaningful. It’s a phenomenal cast and I just loved the history that was created amongst the characters without it being fed to you; it was unraveled for you throughout the film."

in depth, behind the life, very informative (0 more)
A well written account not just of Meat Loafs life and career but also of the parallel and somewhat different career of the other half of Meat Loaf, namely Jim Steinman. This book goes deeper into the lives of both individuals and deals with the traumas and triumphs in both lives. It also deals with friendship and dare i say 'partnership' of the two. If you want to know the inside story of the truth behind Meat Loafs incredible and long career, then i would recommend this book :)

Honest refelction
Filmed after Jimmy had died and allegations of his sexual abuse arose (due to his death he was never convicted) Louis re examined his friendship and knowledge of Jimmy. Hard to watch in place as Jimmy was a pedophille hiding in plain sight and some to at times almost reveal himself as that. Louis focuses on what went wrong and why no-one had the bravery to come forward swooning including himself and his initial programming. Genuine and filmed to show the true horrors of Jimmy's actions.

Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.



The beginning of this one seemed promising and I was looking forward to where the duo were going, but the film swerved off into some fairly boring territory quickly. I was left fidgeting and querying (after my many years of watching crime dramas and reading forensic science books) how any of them managed to convince the police of their guilt/innocence.

Dangerous Ground I like Josh Lanyons books, this was no exception but I didn't like it as much as some of his other works.This was an interesting read, what with them both being openly gay but not wanting to be together in case it ruined their friendship and partnership of three years, with a kind of mystery plotline. The way the mystery was written in was very good in my opinion and I was intrigued as to what would happen after.However I think the ending was a little too abrupt for my liking.
