"Buster Keaton, Steamboat Bill Jr. — that’s an epic in its own way. Just terrific. Very funny, but the famous hurricane or tornado scene or whatever, where the wall comes down and he stood there, in just one moment — and it comes down, and it’s going to flatten him, but he just happens to be standing where the window was — it’s a perfectly crafted story as well. I think it’s a masterpiece, really. And The General. But I just adore it and adore him. He’s wonderful."

Dominic Monaghan recommended Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) in Movies (curated)

"I love comedy. This got a lot of flak when it came out, because everyone said it was Monty Python’s diss towards Jesus. But it’s not. It’s looking at the ridiculous foundations of religions in general and how we set those things up to be things of truth. And when you point a finger at them, they can very easily become things of comedy. Great film, and one of those that the more you watch it, the funnier it gets. Like This is Spinal Tap."

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Down London Road (On Dublin Street, #2) in Books

First 50-60% 5 big fat stars.
Second half: 3 stars.

Final rating: 4 stars.

I was really loving this up until just after the half way point and then it seemed to lose its momentum. It didn't have that same sexiness/naughtiness to it as the first half with the tension ratcheting up between Jo and Cam, which I was loving btw.

Nevertheless I did enjoy the story and look forward to reading more of this series, and just more books by the author in general.

This is hillarious. If your a fan of Impractical Jokers, Comic Book Men or just life in general then you need to listen to this. The fact that it's been running for nearly 10 years now credits the guys on their ability and enthusiasm for what they do. Even when they have things happening in their personal life they still manage to deliver their blend of uncensored humour, quirkyness and anger.
Be warned you need a sense of humour and ability to not get offended to listen
