There are so many movies and books out there I haven't seen or read, I feel I'm wasting time re-watching movies. Although having said that I recently re-watched a classic I saw many years ago - the original Twelve Angry Men with Henry Fonda. The entire film is shot in a cramped room and one of the most gripping movies ever made, without the cheap tricks and mindless dialogue in your average Hollywood movie today. Just excellent acting all through.
It's sad that kids today don't read but want the instant gratification of a simplistic movie. I have piles of fantastic books I've never read just waiting to be delved into, but I find living in Paradise means I'm outside most of the day and exhausted when my head hits the pillow, so I only manage one page a night these days!
So many books, and so little time.....
