The first thing I want to say is that this is a Billy Wilder/I.A.L. Diamond script collaboration. They were famous in their time, though many will recognise Wilder?s name primarily. I just finished reading a ?memoir? by Wilder where he talks about the MANY, MANY famous Hollywood films he worked on as both scriptwriter and/or […]

As with every good murder mystery, it?s not too long before the clues lead to new questions, but perhaps the most useful clue of all will be the seemingly unrelated disappearance of a young school girl on the dame day.
Miss Marple will have her work cut out trying to solve this murder; almost everyone has […]

I was keen to check this out, never having seen any documentaries that specifically focus on the history of homosexuality in Australia.

I thought I made a mistake in choosing to sitting down to watch ?National Treasure? so late at night. I thought, long film, after 10pm, I am sure to fall asleep. But, No! The film was so entertaining that not once did I drift off to dreamland. The storyline was unique […]

I have to own up to having little interest in ?Hello Kitty? other than seeing the cute merchandise that has graced store shelves for many years now. I did not know any of the characters names and had never seen a cartoon before so watching this DVD was always going to educate me but not […]
