Shutter Island looks like it might satisfy a) my snobbish movie [...]

    Dear readers, since there is nothing (NOTHING!) on telly due to the Olympics I have been catching up on my reading (on a side note The Gunslinger is doing my head in and I can totally understand why many people gave up on Dark Tower after reading it). And not that I mind the Olympics, [...]

    I loved Jeffrey Dean Morgan on Grey’s Anatomy. I liked him even better as Papa Winchester on Supernatural. Watchmen was ok and we shall mention nothing about those rom coms (in Accidental Husband Uma Thurman had to pick between him and Colin Firth – silly woman she should have gone for both tsk!). Anyhow Jeffrey [...]
