Reading & watching- My Brilliant Friend (Elena Ferrante ) 28 May 2020For the Book Group.
- ABC & iView: Almost Australian (Miriam Margolyes 2020) 23 May 2020Miriam Margolyes, who describes herself as a fat old Jewish Lesbian, sets out in a campervan to explore her adopted Australia, asking people she meets about their version of the Australian dream, mateship and so on. It's funny, I guess, but the main power of it lies in how boldly she goes where a tactful person just wouldn't tread.
- Google Play: Motherless Brooklyn (Edward Norton 2019) 22 May 2020What a fabulous film: a hardboiled private eye who has Tourette's, who (spoiler alert!) at least makes the bad guy very uncomfortable and gets the girl.
- Netflix: Molly's Game (Aaron Sorkin 2017) 22 May 2020Aaron Sorkin wrote and directed this. Jessica Chastain and Idris Elbaare terrific.
- Notting Hill (Roger Michell 1999) 21 May 2020written by Richard Curtis, this has got so my=uch in it that I didn't remember. The most surprising thing about it is how not-glamorous Julia Roberts is. It still works.
