Steve McQueen, what a terrific film you have put together here! I loved the casting, from Paul Dano, Benedict Cumberpatch, Brad Pitt, Michael Fassbender and Lupite Nyong'o, I was more than satisfied. Chiseled Ejiofer in the lead role played Solomon with conviction and heart... Who could forget the scene where he is strung up and made to move on his tippy toes in mud to keep from hanging, haunting....... And when his spirit breaks after beating Patsy after being so…

Blue Jasmine 2013
How does Woody Allen get into the heads of others so vividly? This film is a Woody winner! Loved the casting, Cate B is convincing and made for this role... Love and honesty are explored in this film and it's one that makes you think a lot about what's real and what's expected.... A memorable film, now on my list of Woody likes.

Red Obsession 2013
Went to see this so I could once again travel through the wine regions of Bordeaux which I am greatly missing since my return to Australia. This documentary was informative and entertaining. Awesome time lapse photography and city skylines. Most memorable line for me after a look at the Chinese investments of the best Bordeaux wines was delivered by a French man who said " Aim to please rather than impress... " which will stay with me in the next few days...It was a great analysis of French and changing Chinese culture with humour, heart and history.
