Popcorn Moment: Before I Go to Sleep
Before I Go to Sleep is based on the novel of the same name by S.J. Watson, which I have previously devoured and loved. You can read my review of the book here. It’s one of those films whose effect…
Popcorn Moment: Life of Pi
It’s unusual for me to watch the film before the book but I was enthralled by the taster trailer of Life of Pi and mixed reactions to the book made me not want to spoil the film. It sounds like…
Popcorn Moment: The Hunger Games
I’m not going to say The Hunger Games is the best film ever but what they have done, is create a film for the readers. It doesn’t deviate from the plot or cut out great swathes, if anything, maybe they…

Popcorn Moment: Water For Elephants
I have just got back from a preview screening of Water For Elephants based on Sara Gruen’s excellent book. I know, for most of you, it’s already on general release, but here in the UK we’re always miles behind. The…
