Movie Favorite

"I sometimes hear films described as “Lynchian,” which, I take it, means that they deal with a certain space between light and darkness (or perhaps it’s just a more sophisticated way of saying that something is flat-out creepy). The Scarlet Empress is David Lynch for 1934 . . . and by that I mean that the lighting design is crucial. I love the scene where the freaky Grand Duke Peter (whom I recognized as the crotchety book salesman from my childhood favorite—the ever-so-slightly psychedelically tinged—Bedknobs and Broomsticks) emerges from the shadows to meet his new bride, the Princess Sophia Frederica (played by Marlene Dietrich) for the first time"

I look for yummy yummies
One of the best JRPG's of the playstation era, set on Gaia, the hero Zidane starts a whirlwind adventure by kidnapping a princess. The friends and discoveries made on the way are a truly emotional ride. The music is masterful and the cutscenes were very well done for the platform. I have come back to this game many times, with all the side quests and mini games there is so much to do its possible to find something new after multiple playthroughs. Many hours i spent as a child playing this wondrous creation in the golden era of Square. Brilliant game i would highly recommend.

Unnatural Causes
By Richard Shepherd
⭐️⭐️⭐️

He has performed over 23,000 autopsies, including some of the most high-profile cases of recent times; the Hungerford Massacre, the Princess Diana inquiry, and 9/11.

He has faced serial killers, natural disaster, 'perfect murders' and freak accidents.

His evidence has put killers behind bars, freed the innocent, and turned open-and-shut cases on their heads.

Yet all this has come at a huge personal cost.

This was an interesting read at the start but somewhere in the middle I got a little bored. May be a moody thing a 2.5/3 star read!
