At the Movies…

Today we are posting something from both of us with the same theme…

Going to the movies has always been a special treat, so long may it continue!

Now for my favourite!

John Luther is back!

We loved every second of the Luther detective series on TV. The one starring Idris Elba, no connection to Superman!

Idris Elba as John Luther ticked all my boxes, even some I didn’t know I had. When he severely blotted his copybook and was defrocked, or should I say de trench coated from his role as DCI, I was gutted.

Luther: The Fallen Sun

The film opens with Luther in prison, and without letting any cats out of bags, I can say that I was on the edge of my seat, chewing my nails from the get-go.

Totally brilliant and looking utterly wonderful, the film (and Idris) was brilliantly clever, menacing dark and breathtaking. Everything I could ever want.

This was John Luther at his absolute best!

    I haven’t been to the movies in years, but I think Anita’s poem hit the mark. Thanks for your view of Luther, Jaye.

    Great poem, Jaye and Anita. The trailer is riveting. When movies get too scary for me (often the case), I have to stand and walk around. LOL. That said, I’ll probably watch this one — and do the laundry at the same time. Yep, that’s how I manage frightful movies. 😊

    Jaye and Anita, your poem sums up my love and fear of a good scary movie. AND, I didn’t know the movie was out. I must watch it. Idris is great in everything.
