Advantages: Great production design and attention to period detail. Disadvantages: Lack of plot, poor characterisation and self-important direction.
Eighteenth Century Spain is a dangerous place to live because of all the religious and political upheaval. The Spanish Inquisition once more rules by fear, torturing dissenters and burning heretics. People are regularly arrested on the slightest pretext and subjected to unimaginable horrors in the name of God. One such misfortunate is Inés Bilbatua, famed beauty and model for revered Spanish artist Goya, whisked away into the dungeons on the orders of the church?s chief firebrand Brother Lorenzo. He is captivated by her and begins to doubt his calling. Fifteen years later, all three are brought together under very different circumstances as Napoleon Bonaparte invades and tries to declare a republic.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Goya's Ghosts (DVD)
Advantages: great writer who wrote for adults and children Disadvantages: he has died
Roald Dahl was my all time favourite author when I was younger and now I still have many of his books, who can forget some of his classics like Charlie and The chocolate Factory, I even went to see this teatre it was brilliant. Matilda, The Witches, James and The Giant Peach, George's Marvellous Medicine were other good books written by him. I apologise if I have missed any good books out, but these are the ones I can remember at the top of my head.
I must admit the time I read Witches I was very scared, but soon came to terms with it.
I was so sad when he died he really did win a place in my heart. I have read Tales of the unexpected by him, he shows that he can write for adults as well as children. He is great writer in my mind. I didn’t like reading, but I always had time for his books.
I think I will never forget this ...
