"The Secret of Roan Inish" - a long-time love of mine...
1 of 1 found this helpful This copy was to replace my personal one, that I had given to a friend, now a mother of two, who had loved the film when we first saw it together when she was younger than the girl in the story. I also sent one to another friend, a prominent filmmaker, as much because of the commentary by the auteur John Sales as for the enchanting story, He details the difficulties involved in filming this modern telling of a lovely Irish folk tale on that wild North Sea coast and especially of the brilliant solutions to those problems by legendary cinematographer Haskell Wexler and other technical people. It's a gift for everyone from young children to film buffs and techie geeks! And the prices make multi-gifting easy! Get out your Santa lists, people!

book: "Honor Killing: How the Infamouse Massie Affair Transformed Hawai'i"
It's a nice, LARGE mint-condition, hard cover book. I ordered it because I saw a PBS showing of a film on the subject and want to know more. But I have not had time to read it.
t will be of interest to anyone interested in how racism has affected U.S. history But you always ask for evaluations too soon for people to give any purchase the time needed for a real evaluation. Give me an open-ended rain check and I will give you an evaluation of the book's content.

basic lttle clock
1 of 1 found this helpful It's fine. It's a simple little clock. One promised feature (of no great importance) does not perform, however. It says the face will illuminate. Pushing that button illuminates only a small upper corner, which does not give enough light to see the time. No big thing; just so you know.
