The Dark Humour The Winter Scenery (0 more)

Fargo for the 21st Century

Was expecting this to be the usual type of revenge thriller that neeson seems to do on a regular basis nowadays but this particular movie came with some very dark comedy moments that made it sort of feel like a fargo for the 21st century.

An ok film mostly but the story itself does tend to drift away from it's original opening event midway through the film and it seems the local cops are always 2 steps behind the villains.

The way the film let's the viewer know who was just killed off was pretty inventive i thought.

Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated Stockholm - Single by Akurei in Music

Jun 6, 2019 (Updated Jun 6, 2019)

Akurei is an electronic singer-songwriter from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Not too long ago, he released a do-it-yourself music video for his “Stockholm” single.

The audiovisual was filmed by Akurei’s good friend Max Byrne (Golden Vessel) in February during a recent trip to the United States.

The video stars Akurei performing against a variety of visually stimulating winter backdrops while wearing a big fury coat.

‘Stockholm’ is the first single from Akurei’s upcoming second EP, which will be released later this year.

The likable tune contains a relatable storyline, pleasing vocals, and summery instrumentation scented with an indie-electro fragrance.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2434 KP) rated Cover of Snow in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Nora awakes one cold January morning to discover the unthinkable - her husband has committed suicide. As she tries to figure out why, she begins to uncover things about his past she never knew. Will she figure out why? What else will she uncover?

Definitely a darker book than I normally read, but I am glad I did. The characters were real, the plot was tight, and the writing was so good I felt the cold of an upper New York State winter. Hard to believe this is a debut novel.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2434 KP) rated Naughty in Nice (Her Royal Spyness Mysteries, #5) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Georgie manages to get a trip to Nice in the middle of winter to try to find something stolen from the palace. But then a second theft and a murder put her in danger. Can she find her way out of it? As always, Georgie and her family and friends are a delight to be around. Also as always, this book takes forever setting things up before the plot really gets going. I enjoy the series, but I wish the mystery got moving sooner.

David McK (3623 KP) rated The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in Books

Jan 28, 2019

Going by publication date the first of CS Lewis's 'Chronicles of Narnia' series; this is the second by the authors own reading-order guide and the most famous of the entire series.

It is, of course, very easy to see the Christian allegory throughout the course of the story, which tells of how Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy first came to the magical land of Narnia (through the wardrobe): a land which is under perpetual snow and ice due to the White Witch - always Winter; never Christmas - before being freed by the children under the guidance and with the help of Aslan the Lion.
