Movie Favorite

"I could watch the work of Wong Kar-wai (and the brilliant cinematographer Christopher Doyle) all day long. I don’t have to understand what’s going on . . . I don’t care. Beautiful people, photographed beautifully. His films are the best, most romantic out there."

Scott Turow recommended A Field Guide to the Jewish People: Who They Are, Where They Come From, What to Feed Them... and Much More, Maybe Too Mu in Books (curated)

"The value of laughter, always sky-high for me, has gone beyond gold. I recommend anything by Dave Barry—especially, for those who get the jokes, the recent A Field Guide to the Jewish People by Barry, Adam Mansbach, and Alan Zweibel."

Ibram X. Kendi recommended Their Eyes Were Watching God in Books (curated)

"Of course, the black body exists within a wider black culture — one Hurston portrayed with grace and insight in this seminal novel. She defies racist Americans who would standardize the cultures of white people or sanitize, eroticize, erase or assimilate those of blacks."

Good time waster

Got a bad representation a while ago for selling data, but have since stopped, and are more dedicated to privacy, and overall it isn’t as bad as a lot of people say

Catchy and quick

Julian pulls it out the bag again for what people might come to say is the worst Strokes album ever. Not going to lie, I think it’s fab. Think if the beatles went on a modern indie disco adventure.

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated London Has Fallen (2016) in Movies

Sep 25, 2019

I quite enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen, so this one was another that was going to be seen regardless. I can't lie, there's less plot, more action. So if you like watching things explode and people get shot, well, you're on to a winner.

Ducklady (1174 KP) rated 1984 Nineteen Eighty-Four in Books

Sep 2, 2019

This dystopian novel tells of the world completed controlled by its government. People are constantly watched and analysed. It's scary how accurate this book is when looking at society now.
Powerful book that is still relevant and needs to be read by everyone.
