Fahrenheit 451
Last night I was watching a French movie from 1947 called Quai des Orfevres, directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot, in which a cynical police inspector investigates a nightclub singer and her piano player husband about the murder of a sleazy producer. It was pretty good.
Today I was watching the 1966 movie Fahrenheit 451, directed by Francois Truffaut and based on the novel by Ray Bradbury about a future world in which reading is illegal and all books are banned. In the story, firemen are paid to find and burn illicit stashes of reading material. It was pretty interesting. Both of them are reviewed over at Permanently Weird.
Today is the start of my Christmas break and, although I have to work one day on New Year's Eve, I'm not properly back at work until 5th January.
