The Pianist

“I watched The Pianist yesterday, ready for my next review,” I told my Dad. “Oh, another Harvey Keitel movie?” Mr Nunn replied. As previously mentioned, I have face blindness, so genuinely can watch incredibly famous people in movies, and have been completely unaware of their presence. (Case in point, I was just Googling The Pianist … [Read more…]

Reservoir Dogs

So, my Reservoir Dogs review. I have several problems with Reservoir Dogs. Firstly, and perhaps most misleadingly of all, there were no dogs, nor a single reservoir. If you had tuned into this movie, hoping for a wildlife documentary focusing on the canine exploits of dogs gallivanting around a reservoir, you will be, sadly, disappointed. … [Read more…]

Coco

January 18, 2020 by NunntheWiser

The Prestige

I had literally never heard of The Prestige, but (unlike seemingly the majority of the movies on the 100 Best Movie chart we bought), it appeared to be neither a Mafia movie, nor a Western. That alone sold it to me. And you know what, for the first twenty minutes or so, I quite enjoyed … [Read more…]

New Year – New Challenge

January 1, 2020 by NunntheWiser

It has been beyond ages since I’ve done a blog. There have been several reasons for this. The first – abject laziness – is probably the most compelling. But also, as the children get older, it seems less kind to write about their foibles. All tiny children are absolute dickheads. That goes without saying. Reporting … [Read more…]
