Ben Wheatley recommended The Battle of Algiers (1966) in Movies (curated)

"I’d heard bits about The Battle of Algiers and knew I wanted to see it; I’m a big fan of Peter Watkins’s The Battle of Culloden and the whole mock-doc/social-realist filmmaking aesthetic. It makes interesting counterprogramming to our understanding through modern media of the difference between “freedom fighters” and “terrorists.” It’s just as relevant now as it was then."

Abraham Pais | 1986 | Philosophy, Psychology & Social Sciences

Book Favorite

"This 1988 book about the discoveries of 20th-century physics delights me so much that I keep several copies—a hardback for my library, a paperback for traveling, and an extra copy or two to press on friends. Pais, a physicist himself, was in a unique position to portray the whole landscape of modern physics in its most exciting century."

A real-life twist on an old familiar fairy tale. It took me a little bit to get into this story, mainly because the tone was a bit stiff and formal. But once I did get into it, I fell in love. I enjoyed this story so much and I can't wait to read the rest of the Modern Fairytale series!

Few writers can resist the temptation to revamp a beloved classic. Many find the best fodder in Shakespeare. In Tyler's latest novel, she takes on the Bard's "Taming of the Shrew," with mixed results. Find out more about what I thought of this book in my review here.
