		<description><![CDATA[Tarantino’s World War II movie &#8211; I don’t get it.
The opening to the film is exquisitely shot.  It carries a fantastic level of suspense and emotion that made me think that we were in the realms of greatness.  I was misled.
If anything, the opening to the film is the film’s peak and everything subsequently meanders [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writeronthestorm.wordpress.com&blog=2658902&post=762&subd=writeronthestorm&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The second part to the epic story of France’s most renowned gangster, Jacques Mesrine.
Where the first film follows a reasonable story arch, but remains episodic, this film seems to abandon the narrative and instead jumps through the remaining years of Mesrine’s career and life.  It reminded me a little of reading a biography; which, of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writeronthestorm.wordpress.com&blog=2658902&post=760&subd=writeronthestorm&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Divided into 4 chapters, the film follows an unnamed couple (“He” played by Willem Defoe and “She” played by Charlotte Gainsbourg), as they go through a grieving process following the death of their son. “He” is a therapist [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writeronthestorm.wordpress.com&blog=2658902&post=755&subd=writeronthestorm&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

There have been a few reasons for this.  Probably the biggest one is that it&#8217;s very difficult to write a travel blog when you&#8217;re not actually travelling anywhere.  So, I&#8217;ve had a rethink.
Now, I will [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writeronthestorm.wordpress.com&blog=2658902&post=731&subd=writeronthestorm&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
