Tom Cruise vehicle, telling the (supposedly true) story of Barry Seal, an American pilot who is hired by and starts flying missions for the CIA, soon encountering the likes of Pablo Escobar and starting to run drugs for him as well.

Slow and (ironically, giving the fact that he is a pilot) plodding: perhaps this type of film is just not up my street?

"I love Kay Thompson! This is a wonderfully interesting, true story that still hasn't been made into a movie! Truth be told I considered optioning this for a film. The incredibly talented and eccentric Kay made her mark in history with her iconic (Vreelandesque) role in Funny Face, her classic children's book Eloise, and her famous nightclub act — just parts of an incredible journey and life."

"Milla Jovovich is in it. It’s another one of those ones that’s based on a true story, like The Mothman Prophecies. They use a lot of found footage in it — well not found footage, but like cop car cameras and things like that. This is one of those movies that, you know, it will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. It’s horrifying."

This classic novel of Margaret Atwood is now a televised mini-series, but I really had to read the book before I start watching it. This fascinating historical fiction novel is a psychological profile based on the true story of Grace Marks, the woman convicted of a double homicide in 1843. Read more in my review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2018/03/02/duplicity-or-distortion/
