Dead of winter

Image
My last film of 2025 and it didn't disappoint .  It's been a good year for films. I pick and choose what to see and the big budget franchise films are not something I'm interested in. If you like them good luck to you but they're not for me. The acting was good as was the script and l think Emma Thompson did a passable American accent. This film is set in Alaska and that landscape also plays a big part in the film. 4.5 out of 5 stars. Let me know if you've seen this film.

Not 1 but 2 true crime books

Do you like opera?

Welcome to December. Do you like opera?  I am liking it more and more. So much so that l am tutoring a class about opera next year. This will be the first time l've tutored any class and l'm a bit nervous but also looking forward to it. I'm also going to be talking about the music, which l like more and more now.  If you have any favourite operas let me know. Wish me luck.

Do you read cozy crime novels
