Feast!
A feast, that's what we're currently experiencing. A glorious glut of the kind of film that by right should only appear a few times a year.
Let me elaborate:
'Let there be blood'.... and yes, blood there will be. Did someone say this is the 'Citizen Kane' of the modern day? Daniel Day Lewis is a force of nature in this movie based on a little know 1927 novel about the oil business. Will give you new ideas about uses for a bowling alley.
'Juno'... they said every line was a, well, clasic. And they were right. This is so good it'll make you weep. Except it's a comedy so maybe you'll laugh. Laugh-weep... oh, who knows. It's GOOD though!
'Before the devil knows you're dead'... Phillip Seymour Hoffman, wow. With a script so labyrinthine and exciting, you'll want to see it again and again.
'The diving bell and the butterfly'...the only one on the list I haven't seen, but the word is out that it's a cracker.
So eat up, enjoy the feast. National Treasure Book of Secrets is around the corner and we'll be back to sandwiches again.

All in all, a bad fortnight to have gone to Africa! I'm desperately hoping Juno and There Will Be Blood will still be on when I get back
