Tale of four cities

Lawrence of Arabia http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056172/ A pedigree of class and indulgence, this Academy de noir was a spectacular voyage. More than half a decade later, it still ranks high amidst world heritage stuff. Gloriously shot, it captures the glitz of sand and vivacity of the deserts with enormous thirst. The lengthy golden traits, the exquisite sightsContinue reading “Tale of four cities”

Random, again.

Long time coming but good things usually a take a turn while the next is due within the ballet☺.

Right till his Olympic debacle that could have otherwise been a stirring chapterContinue reading “Blockbuster Reviews: Bhaag Milkha Bhaag”

You bet, and go to jail..
