Movie: Lizzie, about Lizzie Borden. With Chloe Sevigney and Kristen Stewart
I wasn't feeling great today, so I watched Lizzie, a movie I've wanted to see for awhile, on HBO Max. It's not supposed to be nonfiction, but it sticks close to the facts--except that it combines Uncle John with the town constable. This is unfair. The real Constable/Sheriff did a great job, actually, while the real Uncle John was indeed a shady character. As shady as he is in the movie, I don't kn

| Never Flinch commits the Cardinal Sin of writing. The problem isn’t that it’s bad, per se. The problem is, it’s boring. I’ve written in every Stephen King review (except maybe Rose Madder) that even when his book isn’t great, his storytelling is so g ...more | |

| Sixth in the series, third that I’ve read so far, and still very good, Lehane’s two detectives stumble into the MacReady family once again. Amanda MacReady is their April Kyle—a girl Parker’s Spenser questionably “saved”—and this second dealing with ...more | |

| A very good entry in neo-noir that shows Lehane could get better, this one is more feel than plot. That’s not a bad thing, though it is sometimes a confusing thing, but you won’t mind that, either. I read this one after the much-later Gone, Baby, Gon ...more | |

Incredibly well-written book, the first I’ve read of Lehane’s, though I’ve seen all (I think) of the movies made from them. Very intricate and dense, and yet a quick read, rare, and so very good. If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll be happy to know that ...more |

| Extremely breezy book about the odd behaviors of the famous and infamous, this title is a misnomer, as it's much more about how these people lived than how they died. Really, it's a smooth Wikipedia-like collection of bios and bon-mots, grouped toget ...more | |

| A very good bathroom book, which I mean in a good way. It ain’t War and Peace, and if you’re a fan of the movie, you don’t want it to read like a serious movie tome of a serious movie. It’s why we like Major League differently than we like Bull Durha ...more | |

| Perfect little bathroom book, which I don’t mean in a bad way. A bit odd that it averages just three stars here, as if the critics somehow expected it to be more than it very clearly is. 52 books and their movies—or, sometimes, movies and their books ...more | |

| Extremely well-written fictional account (and this time that doesn't mean: boring) of who this girl could've been, as well as of the Vermeer family. Recent research seems to suggest that the girl wasn't a real person at all, but more of an idealized ...more | |

| An amazingly smooth read about Shakespeare the man, not the myth. A bit of romanticizing about the era and his marriage, but none of it is outlandish and all of it probable. Doesn't always make Will out to be the greatest guy, either, which gives it ...more | |

Hey, Emma! What's up? I went to the website you mentioned, and it says it no longer exists.
