A corny pop song I know but I'm currently in a pub up a hill in the Isle of Wight waiting for my Lasagne and Chips. This just came on and it seems appropriate 🟦⬜
I saw Fatherland last night. It needs a bit of focus and I missed some of the storyline due to not reading subtitles quick enough (no rewind button in the cinema!). Still I thoroughly enjoyed it and have since read a few reviews to fill in the story gaps. Very nicely shot in b&w with an unusual aspect and a really compelling setting take you back to the post war, height of cold war period it portrays. Some excellent acting and I'll watch it again when the opportunity comes.
I’ve seen a couple of films in the last week or so.
Tony is a part of the early life of Anthony Bourdain, author of the book Kitchen Confidential. I thought it was quite good. Unspectacular but well acted and a plausible take on Cape Cod life.
The Incomers is a bit like a grown up feature length episode of the tv show Round The Twist.
I've always liked the Express. Black Dog up the road is very good too. A few people I know rave about the Brook next to the old Griffin Park site. Quite pricey from what I've heard and a craft beer pub and closed more than it's open.
I popped into the Express Tavern yesterday and had a couple of pints of Wimbledon Kaiser Vienna lager. A cask lager minus the cold and fizzy bit and pretty good.
I was actually talking about Lamptey who only came on in the second half. Cirkin looked pretty good although I didn’t think he looked fully fit. I didn’t really notice the mistakes although other people have mentioned it too.
