    Film time

    Into The Wild

    A brilliant film directed by Sean Penn, the story of Christopher McCandless

    My second watch & I can already remember how I felt watching it the first time

    Watched Peter Gabriels New Blood Live dvd last night. Well shot and although most of the songs are slow ones it is a great concert. Well worth buying if you like Peter's music. The new Blood Orchestra are superb on this..

    Just watched Eroica on BBC4.

    Absolutely brilliant - a drama reconstruction of the very first rehearsal of Beethoven's 3rd symphony. It does for Beethoven what 'Amadeus' did for Mozart.

    Just finished City of Life and Death.

    I did this in two goes as frankly this film is grim in the extreme and I had to do it in stages. I thought Schindler's List was about as bad as this sort of thing gets, but no, City of Life and Death depicts what I have heard called the 'Rape of Nanking' and to say it is awful is not doing justice to what the Japanese did to the Chinese in that city.

    There is no relief in this movie, a few glimmers of humanity is swamped and crushed by the total inhumanity and brutality depicted. Worth watching but hard going. I won't be watching it again.

    Cheers for your thoughts
