The Real Saints of War

Advantages: Fantastic Movie
Disadvantages: Sad that it's a true story

life and you can image what it was really like for any man in war; be it friend or foe. I do not want to tell you what happens as it would not be worth your while watching the film, but suffice to say you will be glued to your seats watching it. It of course is very sad when you realize that the film is based on actual events and there were a few scenes where I caught myself thinking, my gosh if that is what really happened that is spooky. The history pages and articles written by eye-witnesses and men in that field are shocking and this film gives you the same sense of outrage at indecent human behaviour just as real life would. During my research I discovered that the film originates from a story written in a book called "Saints at War", this was then turned into a film and "Saints and Soldiers came from this. There is now a book ...

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Highlighter

Advantages: does the job
Disadvantages: expensive

Yves Saint Laurent's Touche Eclat has become known as the best highlighter money can buy, and that's not without reason. Yes, the brand name and packaging are appealing, but it's the miracle inside the shiny gold tube that you're paying for. And believe, me it's worth the money. Before Touche Eclat, Yves Saint Laurent was not particularly well-known for its make-up line.

This product works as both a concealer, covering dark under-eye circles and as a highlighter, to accent areas such as cheekbones. The reason why it works so well is that it contains light reflecting particles with give your skin a natural, radiant glow, whereas other concealers and cover-ups effectively just ...

The Village

Advantages: Atmosphere. Well produced - Escapist
Disadvantages: Story line too unrealistic for me

Last week I came across one of those special offers in HMV (4 DVds for £20). It was end of the season sale and I picked up a film called "The Village" just to make up the numbers. It struck me as being some sort of clichéd horror film from the blurb on the cover and I didn't expect to be watching it in the very near future. But it was one of those DVDs that keep popping up every time I looked through my shelf of dozens of other unwatched movies. Well the other evening, it popped up again and I just put it in the machine without giving it too much thought. As I wasn't in the mood for thinking anyway, it would probably be an ideal film. As we got into the film, enter the monster, well, a glimpse of it. It was supposed to be scaring me but even my wife, who makes me jump out of my skin with her sudden screams in scary movies, remained ...
