Everybody's Talking About Jamie (2021)
Everybody's Talking About Jamie (2021)
2021 | Drama, Musical
On his birthday, a young man in Sheffield gets up, goes on his paper route, then puts on his uniform and goes to school. It is immediately apparent that this young man, Jamie, aspires to be a drag queen.
As someone who works in education, I appreciate how realistic the depiction of children in a classroom is.
It doesn't take long before our first song starts, and although though Jamie isn't a particularly good vocalist, the song was quite catchy and stuck in my mind till the following one.
I didn't know if I would like this movie as a 40-year-old woman, but I really did. I shouted at the TV, cried, and even laughed at it. It can serve as motivation for anyone who struggles with being authentic. This movie is undoubtedly something you will enjoy if you enjoy both camp and musicals.

Vanilla has been in an accident. She has woken with no recollection of who she is or has been. She has tried everything so far to try and jog her memory so her family resort to the only thing they have left the center. Maybe she will discover a lot more than herself.


I found this a very interesting story. There were a lot of things happening. I like the way that we, as a reader, go along with the same amnesia that Vanilla has, and that we follow every step that she takes in her discovery to find out who she is. There are a lot of heartaches involved and some of the stuff she finds out is gut-wrenching but it makes it more interesting and gives more motivation to find out what has happened.


I recommend this.

The Best Batman Joker movie yet
Bruce Wyane (Keaton) is a billionaire with a dark past on how his parents were killed. His motivation is life has become to never see crime like this happen in Gotham city again and becomes the crime fighter known as Batman. Jack Napier (Nicholson) is a life long criminal who gets dropped into a vat of chemicals and becomes the maniacal criminal villain known as Joker. Vicki Vale (Bassinger) is a reporter who wants to find out out more about the bat and becomes Bruce's love interest but, also strikes the fancy of the Joker. Who will Gotham and the girl belong to when it's all done?

The best Batman movie in my opinion. Keaton gives a great portrayal of Bruce/Batman and Nicholson as the Joker gives us the right emotions that he deserves. Bassinger is also very good as the love intrest. All in all a great watch

Easy and free access to MANY versions
Community support/inclusion is wonderful
People will think I’m speaking only of the books, not the app. (0 more)
It’s an honestly well made app with many features.
Lemme be absolutely clear. I’m a fan of the Bible, but that’s NOT what I’m reviewing here. I’m reviewing the YouVersion Bible app. And frankly, it’s great.

It is easy to navigate, completely free, has copious amounts of versions to view for study and comparison, has multiple language options, links to excellent resources, community support, reading motivation, text graphic creation, study and reading plans, as well as video resources and any text has links to community resources as well (notes, commentary, etc).

As far as any application for the Bible goes, it really cannot be beat. It’s a wonderful and again, completely free(!) application that works as promised and delivers an experience so in depth yet so navigable, as nothing else I’ve seen.
