Writing, films, history, Prohibition. Not in that order.<br><br>Favorite movie of the last two weeks: Dead of Night, shown on the big screen at the NFT. Brilliant! Scary! Highly recommended! It builds slowly, but what an ending!<br><br>Favorite book of the last month: The Seville Communion, Arturo Perez-Reverte. I've liked his work ever since The Dumas Club. Quietly Gothic, this one; it opens with a hacker breaking into the Pope's personal PC and goes on from there.
