I am so glad this movie is for rent now considering the circumstances. It would have been grand to see this on the big screen, but it works as good as on the TV screen. Prepare for a long review/deep analysis of this movie, because I find I have a lot to say about it. … Continue reading Emma. (2020) – A Feast For The Eyes and Romantic Heart

The Great God Pan – A Short Horror Classic
A short horror book review for Halloween! And what better way to start it then with a not well known Halloween classic! I mean, it's called the scariest horror story written by Stephen King himself. And it sure is that, I just wished it was written in modern prose instead of old Victorian english. Summary: … Continue reading The Great God Pan – A Short Horror Classic
Loving Vincent (2017) – A Masterpiece of Both Art and Cinema
A big statement for a film that might be too, dare I say, Art House for some, even if it is an Independent Film. Which is now on Netflix and I can't recommend it enough.

Far From The Madding Crowd (2015) – Love in The Brutal Country
This isn't a period movie if you want a good time. No, its depressing and yet somehow satisfying in its bleakness (I've watched too much Game of Thrones and now I think I am cynic for writing this), but that is also its strongest point. There is more to life than romance, but there is … Continue reading Far From The Madding Crowd (2015) – Love in The Brutal Country
Harlequin/Mills & Boon: Least Likely To Marry a Duke – Oh the Anticipation!
Who knew ASDA was a good place to find books? And for cheap? And where I found my first romance novel and read it on the plane before finishing it at home. I've been aware of Mills & Boon of the Harlequin romance novel publishing company for a while, but never have seen their books … Continue reading Harlequin/Mills & Boon: Least Likely To Marry a Duke – Oh the Anticipation!
