Some notes on Green Candleford

    Humor She had her moments of ecstasy in the contemplation of beauty, periods of religious doubts, hours of religious faith Candleford was a pleasanat and peaceful place but it was no second Garden of Eden…sometimes one would break his neck falling… Cycling was considered such a sangeorus pastime that they telegraphed news of their arrival embellished only ran down two fouls, one pig and… Only for those with means, then for most and only men, then some women …soon almost anyone under forty was ‘awheel’ life at the post office was not dull, she reads between clients, though miss Lane would enter and ask if she knew all in the rules manual This postman converted at a chapel revivalist meeting and now he would ask people ‘how is it with your soul? Have you found salvation?’ impertinent questions people thought Laura invited to join the Primsrose League, but her father was a liberal, so she said so and then she was ‘contrarian’, did not think like the majority ...

Inception -The Shooting Script by Christopher Nolan, who has enchanted us recently with Oppenheimer http://realini.blogspot.com/2023/08/oppenheimer-by-christopher-nolan.html and other gems 9 out of 10

  Inception -The Shooting Script by Christopher Nolan, who has enchanted us recently with Oppenheimer http://realini.blogspot.com/2023/08/oppenheimer-by-christopher-nolan.html and other gems 9 out of 10     Christopher Nolan is the man of the day for the Screen Trade – there is a classic called Adventures in The Screen Trade http://realini.blogspot.com/2017/02/adventures-in-screen-trade-by-william.html by William Goldman, that will explain this phenomenon and so much more, it is a scripture for the thespian arts   He has recently bewitched audiences with his Oppenheimer – but before I plunge into a different subject, and abandon altogether, or for the most part Inception, let me say that the latter is fascinating, bewildering, dazzling, but often incomprehensible for yours truly, so, with that out of the way, this would be a disclaimer, spoiler alert, warning, you name it, thus maybe there is no complaint or retaliation Christopher Nolan is the favorite to win at t...

Comedii la Portile Orientului by Andrei Plesu – in my view, Andrei Plesu is the absolute Magister Ludi, one of the greatest luminaries of all time

  Comedii la Portile Orientului by Andrei Plesu – in my view, Andrei Plesu is the absolute Magister Ludi, one of the greatest luminaries of all time   10 out of 10   I have taken a look at Comedii la Portile Orientului https://realinibarzoi.blogspot.com/2026/07/a-look-at-comedii-la-portile-orientului.html some years ago, and now that we can access this on YouTube, or at least parts of it, why not repeat the exhilaration, exuberance, this is not just a philosopher, but a comedian as well   The luminary has been an acclaimed public figure for decades, although I would not be surprised to ask a young person and find they do not know about him, the other day, I have asked a teenager about Funar, a far-right mayor of Cluj, despite the fact that the adolescent was from that city, she did not know about this mad man That notwithstanding, there is a major difference, that mayor was an idiot, a precursor of the Orange Fool   https://realinibarzoi.blogspo...
