A Long Day's Journey Into Night

I knew nothing about this play (other than being familiar with the title) until we went to see it. A highly recommended very depressing intelligent drama. The family is extremely well written and each of them expresses themselves so clearly and so intelligently. They are all very damaged. Not entertaining, but enlightening, and searingly uncompromising. The father of the family (James Tyrone) played by David Suchet with great insight. Not completely sold out, so if you are interested - go see it!

A Dangerous Method

This movie, David Cronenberg’s latest tells an interesting story and makes me want to read the book which is sadly not yet available in Kindle format. I am interested in psychoanalysis and the founding fathers too, so perhaps this is not a movie for everyone. Nevertheless fine performances, ridiculously crisp photography and exquisite attention to detail in the sets and locations made for a thoroughly compelling 99 minutes at the movies. (seemed enjoyably longer) And the spanking.

Le Mystère de Voix Bulgères at the QEH. Wonderful concert. We were right t the back but felt very close. Touched. Never experienced this sound live before and was mesmerised. Loved it. Nice short pieces too. Easy Listening?

Grinderman at Hammersmith. Great show but Warren was too quiet I felt.

Red Road. Great piece of work. Set in Glasgow. Low Budget. Very effective.

The Last Station. I loved this movie. Very poignant and very helpful in understanding my own life and my passions.
