  3. I watched the #IvoryMerchant film of #HowardsEnd again for the first time since it came out, now 30+ years ago! Lots of people (incl. me) got over saturated with IM films at the time but this one WAS great and still is. Just wonderful acting, gorgeous design and cinematography and the oh so involving, braided, narrative of Forster's and his take on class criticism makes me want to return to his other books. @bookstodon

    Hence, connecting '....across space. In Henry’s office Margaret views a map of Africa, ‘on which the whole continent appeared, looking like a whale marked out
    for blubber’'

  5. As mentioned earlier I’ve been digging for more Tom Sturridge content to stream lately. That led me to catch up with Oliver Assayas’ HBO show Irma Vep… I’m several eps in and TS hasn’t yet shown up, but the show has a real Lost In Translation/Clouds of Sils Maria vibe that I like.
