There
will be no new movie reviews on this blog for a few weeks, not because I won’t
be watching movies but because I’ve already reviewed the ones we’ll be
watching.
Harry! Can’t stay away from Harry Potter. Completely
without planning it Hal and I started, on Friday evening, to watch the Harry
Potter films again. We watched The Philosopher’s
Stone. Seven left to go. For this time.
Hamlet! Can’t stay away from Shakespeare and we’re doing Hamlet again. Have watched three spin-offs we hadn’t seen
before: The Prince of Jutland, The
Empress, Hamlet Goes Business. You can see the reviews here on the blog. Of
the films we’ve already seen we’ve now watched three: the brilliant Adrian
Lester in Peter Brook’s production, the tedious Olivier version and the very
well done BBC version with Derek Jacobi.
We have six left to go.
So
while waiting for new reviews to appear, I hope you enjoy the already posted
reviews of the Harry and Hamlet films.
Believe
me, it’s a perfect combination. Who knows? You might become addicted too…
