The International (2009) – on rental. Clive Owen is starting to present an almost unchanging look in all his most recent films: outside his role of the dandy in Elizabeth: The Golden Age, he looks unwashed, unshaven, unsmiling and like
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). While I own and have finished several reads of each of the seven Harry Potter books, I’ve never really got ‘into’ the series. There’s a lot of story in each, but also some
