I was lucky enough to read Queen of Earth & Stone (Crescent Queens #1) by Tricia Meyers the other week. It is a #Fantasy #Romance and her debut novel. I thought I had shared my review, but obviously not! So here it is...

Awesome score
Influential film
Great dialogue
Do you feel lucky punk?
An awesome film that has stood the test of time. It's easy to see how this film has inspired so many cop, action films since. The score is very groovy every time it kicks in. Also one of the most quoted films ever. The best of the Dirty Harry films.

I was lucky enough to see the version that had Sir Patrick Stewart and David Tennant in lead roles, live at Stratford. Sir Patrick was quite difficult to hear at times but David, especially when he got to 'mad Hamlet', stole the stage with his energy. The actor that played Polonius (sorry can't remember who it was) was also excellent.

"I first saw it on TV, one Easter Sunday. I was nine or ten, sick in bed. It made my convalescence so much sweeter (just like the old Lubitsch touch). I also remember Chronique d’Anna Magdalena Bach by Huillet and Straub being aired on a Christmas Day! If you’re this lucky, you’re hooked for life (imagine watching these films on TV nowadays)."

"She’s the children’s writer with whom I most identify. She said, ‘By some lucky chance, I remember exactly how I felt and thought at 11.’ That struck a chord with me. The Story of the Treasure Seekers was a breakthrough children’s book. Oswald is such a very real narrator, at a time when most people were writing morality plays for children."
