Andy K (10823 KP) rated Dead Poets Society (1989) in Movies

Jun 10, 2018

Robin!

The first time I saw Dead Poets society in the theatre I was unbelievably amazed at the acting range of Robin Williams. Everyone knew of his impeccable comic timing which is showcased in the film; however, his dramatic performance was jaw-dropping.

He had done dramatic work before, but something about this film brought it all together. The classmates were also very good led by House star Robert Sean Leonard and Ethan Hawke.

The ending left me weeping for days and is one of the most emotional movie endings ever.

Not to be missed.

The First Purge (2018) feels like the #SnyderCut of Childish Gambino's "This Is America" #Review

What better viewing choice on the 4th of July than the latest instalment in the satirical horror series, one that goes back to the beginning and commemorates the very start of the decline of the land of the so-called free? “The First Purge” sets out to explain just how a society could come to adopt such a monstrous idea in the first place, a question which feels less and less difficult to answer with each passing day...

Convenience Store Woman is a weird little novel. Granted, Americans have a very different culture than the Japanese when it comes to marriage and jobs. This story follows a strange woman during her years of working at a convenience store, which she loves and does well at. However, the way she is viewed puts stress and panic on her to fit in with society. The story, itself, is quirky, but the main character is an odd duck, herself. Plus, if you're the type of reader that loves to hate characters, this book definitely has one for you!
