Movie Favorite

"I’m sort of torn on my last film between Badlands and Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore. I’m on the fence — I love both of those films. Badlands, for me, is a very important film because I feel like a lot of the time it’s the kind of film I would love to make, if I could just make one. It’s so small, but really perfect. I think another great example of a film, which is like a second film, that people don’t think about, is Days of Heaven, which is again another flawless film. His use of voice over is the best out of any filmmaker. Linda Manz, her voiceover, nothing can beat it, you know. I always think that if there’s a voiceover in a film, it’s gotta be like that, where it?s not telling you what’s happening, it’s talking about completely different things. It’s incredible."

Finally, Lucifer - the big bad from previous books - meets his match in Nina although their initial meeting is shrouded in mystery. Nina is taken by Mihail and left in Lucifer's courtyard. What game is Heaven playing and is Nina part of it or an innocent victim?

This is told in the third person, with history and plot given as memories or thoughts. The conversation between the two main characters ranges through a complete tumult of emotions. I loved seeing the 'humane' side of Lucifer coming out, as well as the teasing he received from Erin and Veiron.

A brilliant addition to the Angel series and one that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Definitely recommended by me.
