I know I haven't written in a while, but blogging has been the very last thing on my mind recently. Anyway, I wrote this for my Hollywood Cinema module and thought it was worth posting here.

Yeah, work from 5:15 until noon. It's actually my favorite shift. It gets work out of the way and I have the whole day to myself.

I love the QFT! But I can't believe you've not seen Breakfast at Tiffany's. It is delightful, if only for the bathtub couch. Oh, and the cat-smushing in the last scene. Finding Neverland is really good as well, very sweet and sad.

I know, right? I've been waiting to see for TOO long. And I don't know what a bathtub-couch is but I want one. Also, did you like my review?

I'm only really going to see Finding Neverland cus Barrie's relationship with the Llewellyn-Davies boys figures in my dissertation. Oh, and Johnny Depp too of course.

Bathtub couch! I want one.

Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet have fab chemistry in it! Of course, I adore Kate so she makes me happy by her presence.
