Keira Knightley & Ralph Fiennes are superb in this convincing political thriller. As good or better than Le Carre. Overall powerful and moving with interesting side–pieces on the Press cutting corners & powerful acting by all.
Not enough stars! Hilarious, well–acted convincing fun comedy.rnDon't miss the great extra with Richard Curtis & Danny Boyle – a witty & likeable pair. A work of genius!
500,000 Yazidi Kurds shot & raped by ISIS unmentioned in Bolton's new book, showing the the US cared little. Yazidi Nadia Murad won a Nobel Peace Prize. See Al Jazeera online for details. V. fine film made in Georgia where many now live.
Brilliant and magisterially told by Helen Mirren. Heartbreaking but uplifting. Interviews with living contemporaries and historians. However often you've read her story, there is plenty that is new here. A modern doppelganger wanders with you.
Disc 1:Stilted Christian focus anti–Muslim. Disc 2: Better more attention on cultural context.#7 on Vermeer & Holland a delight still strong Christian & anti–German focus; ignores rest of the world.
