Ghost – Film Review
This classic 1990 weepie is admittedly a tad corny, but just like its star, it has so much earnest charm you can’t help but be won over by just how effective it is.
Chéri – Film Review
A perfectly watchable and enjoyable period romantic comedy-drama, with gorgeous scenery, decadent costumes and a fantastic role for Michelle Pfeiffer. I still couldn’t help but feel that it was a bit of a wasted potential, considering the talent involved.
The Worst Person in the World – Film Review
I really enjoyed this peculiar, freewheeling Norwegian dark comedy-drama about a young woman battling indecisiveness as she approaches 30s, despite some problems with the writing that made it feel a tad shallow.
The Girl In the Cafe – Film Review
A charmingly modest and understated movie about an unlikely relationship that starts off as a conventional meet-cute and then goes somewhere unexpected.
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg – Film Review
Delightful and enchanting French musical with breathtakingly beautiful Catherine Deneuve in her first major film.
One Day by David Nicholls – Book Review
This delightful book is bound to become a re-read staple for when I crave for something light and insanely readable. I’ve enjoyed it just as much second time around.
Lars and the Real Girl – Film Review
“Man buys a sex doll on the internet” is an unlikely premise for a sweet, affecting and life-affirming story, but this quirky movie with early-day Ryan Gosling (before the world decided he was hot) somehow pulls it off.
Gran Hotel – TV Review
I haven’t reviewed any movies lately because for the past few weeks I’ve been glued to this addictive Spanish TV series… so why not review it.
