good depiction of French penal islands amazing pidgeon island scene shows more of Henri's life than the more up to date version whilst being a prisoner. (0 more)

Excellent yet misleading
This movie is great, I am a huge fan of papillon and this film shows a good reflection of the penal islands and various escape attempts. The film is no where near as good as the books and veers away from charrieres account in which can be annoying if you have read the book first as you sit there and think we'll that's not right that never happened. despite this it's still worth a watch especially for the pigeon island scene.

Century spice road in another dimension
Ok finally played this one. If century spice road feels like splendor to you. This will be a better version. Now you move around a board “sailing” island to island setting up markets with trading posts. You have to set up combos in order and also claim them before other people. But moving more than one space costs you resources so it has to be worth it. There is very little blocking so it’s mostly just a racing game. Around making conversions and trades. Working toward a goal and beating the other players to it. I liked it.

Even though it's nothing like Catan, the art/hexes/water make me feel like it's Catan

One could view this as one of the best Goth romance movies. On a small island, a young winery guide, Moll, meets and falls for the dangerous stranger who may or may not be murdering young women on the island. It is a sexual awakening for the outsider. Moll unearths untold power and strength. Recently, I have been watching a lot of Jessie Buckley performances. I have noticed that she has a huge tic where when she speaks she upturns the right side of her lips. It is far noticeable when she plays American, like in "Fargo" and "I'm Thinking of Ending Things." But she also uses it here to twist herself as she spirals toward an inevitable clash.
