Today I have a little delicacy for you all. Long-time reader NF got in touch with me with a review of Geneva. Prior to the release of the audio book we had already chatted in the comments about how successful Richard was going to be in representing the biotech industry as well as Geneva, the…
After my whining and moaning yesterday – good to get if off my chest, lads, and thank you for entertaining my whingeing – I’ve decided to give candidness a little try. As I said, I’ve been chewing over my approach to my self-censoring blogging, and what brought it to the fore this time was actually…
Podcasts may have the disadvantage of being for the ears only, but what a pleasure they can be! Red Production Company published their podcast episode of Richard and Shaun Dooley in conversation with a young interviewer yesterday, and it was such a pleasure listening to these two industry veterans talk. Oh, but *ooops* – maybe…
The aim today was to move on to episode 2 of TS for further discussion of the series. And then I fell into a rabbit hole. In order to recap the episode, I had to rewatch it -the hardship –, take notes, and get a few screen caps – more hardship. I capped and capped and…
Just to confirm here at the start: This post will contain no spoilers beyond what is already known from the TS trailer; I am only describing my reactions to the show, including my rating. There will be no plot twists or conclusions revealed! When Netflix released The Stranger yesterday morning – after a slight panic because at…
Before Uncle Vanya gets its press write-ups following tonight’s press night, it’s time to get my own impressions of the play down. I watched UV on the 14th of January, at its first preview. A glorified dress rehearsal, more or less, playing the play for the first time in front of a paying audience. That does not…
It’s time to stop fuseling and get a proper post about the SD at UV onto my blog. This is slightly out of order, because it probably would make sense to start the UV series of posts with a review of the play. But that has to wait another day. So, without much discussion of the day…
Review: We are all Sonya Richard Armitage Excels In Self-Directed Impromptu Performance by Guylty Pleasure Ever dreamed of acting on the same stage as Richard Armitage? Now you can! The Brit actor has returned to his theatre roots once again, and in an exciting twist performs a self-devised continuation to Uncle Vanya immediately after starring…
The Lodge has finally come to Europe. Fellow fan Yve who is a regular commenter here on this blog, went to a screening of the film last weekend and has offered to write a summary and review of the film for those of us who won’t get to see this film – or who would like…
Apart from Michele lobbying for this film in the wake of the horror of Hannibal, I wouldn’t have considered 2014 disaster flick Into The Storm for a rewatch, had ITS not been on Irish free TV at the end of January. That already preempts my verdict to some degree. You see, I don’t think that…
