Far from his best
Well apparently this flopped at the time but many consider it a classic now. A thriller ahead of it's time for sure, with an atmospheric score. But watching it today it was predictable there would be a twist.
A former Detective is asked to spy on an old friends wife and keep track of her. Leading to obsession and a tragic event.
The first two thirds of the film are very slow and rather uneventful as James Stewart follows Madeleine wandering around town. Given an odd story by his friend to explain her behaviour, but he becomes more obsessed with her over time. The final third of the film was also a little slow getting to the reveal stage. At the time it would be a great twist but today you start to work out possible explanations quite early. The final scene also felt a bit over the top. Enjoyable to see a Hitchcock film but far from a classic for me.

A heartbreaking elegy to Nigeria's lost promise
A beautiful and deeply tragic story exploring a family's secrets based in Nigeria. The novel follows four brothers in a small Nigerian village who are given a violent prophecy which shakes their family to the core.

Like most classic African novels in the Achebe-Ngugi tradition, The Fishermen mixes the traditional English novel form with the oral storytelling tradition, dramatising the conflict between the traditional and the modern. It is rather depressing but poignant.

Disney Classic
WHat not to say about one of Disney's most treasured movies. The score is one of the best and Robin Willams as the genie leaves us applauding for more. The story of a street rat who comes into contact with a mgaic lamp that give him the chance at the beautiful Princess Jasmine. The movie is fun,funny and has it's moments of suspense and danger. Ultimate be careful on what you wish for.
