Iris

Post by amar »

I saw the movie "Iris: A Memoir of Iris Murdoch" tonight, starring among others Judi Dench. A very intimate portrait of the lifelong romance between novelist Iris Murdoch and her husband John Bayley, from their student days through her battle with Alzheimer's disease. Highly recommendable, it moved me very much.

It also had 'Bloke Down The Pub' in it. He got an Oscar for his performance.
May the joy of music be ever thine.

Hmm, I'm confused, I thought this thread was going to be about the Goo Goo Dolls :-?
