![]() Don't Look Now $14.98 I consider this film, "The Man Who Fell to Earth", and "Walkabout", Roeg's best films. I wish he were still making this type of beautiful movie. I saw this when it first came out and still remembered it, but it didn't ruin my pleasure in another viewing. As other reviewers have stated, it "haunts" you. As for those that complained about the nude scene, I think that it was the most tender depiction of loving marital sex to this date. Sutherland didn't have 6-pack abs, but he did look like an attractive man in his unique way; and bless Christie for her natural breasts. It's nice to see actors in movies today with their unreal great bodies, but it's hard to relate to them in a serious film. ![]() Looks $7.99 I don't review too many books on Amazon, and i actually read this book over 18 months ago when it first came out, but the story has stuck with me ever since. This story has a lot going on -- eating disorders, bullying, divorce (or, more accurately, a significant adult relationship falling apart), etc. A lesser writer would not have been able to handle all this "stuff" going on, but George does so expertly. Never preachy, the language is lyrical and often-times beautiful. I'd say this book makes my top 20 teen books of all time. Great job, M. George! |
