what Dave thinks about movies, books and everything
{4.5/5} “But this is the seduction and this is the danger that we all face no matter how weak our powers. Power attracts. It pulls and it changes. No matter how blessed a sorcerer’s sight, power and the closeness of power clouds it. You are very much in danger of going blind.” Bridget Lederle’s daughter […]
{5/5} “What am I doing with my life? I’m so pale. I should get out more. I should eat better. My posture is terrible. I should stand up straighter. People would respect me more if I stood up straighter. What’s wrong with me? I just want to connect. Why can’t I connect with people? Oh, […]
{4/5} “It has always been the will of man to separate us in thought, in clothing, in language. Separate, we can be controlled. Separate, we can be killed in the quiet of the night and disappear into myth. Separate, we forget that in the end we have the power.” Shine edited by Jetse de Vries […]
{5/5} “In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their stories.” Olivia and her teammates are police officers in New York City. They work specifically […]
{4.5/5} “‘You have poor social skills. You have a problem.’ ‘I have a problem? You say more inappropriate things than appropriate things.’” Pat has been in a mental health institution for 8 months because he beat up the guy who was sleeping with his wife. Pat is still having issues but his mom decides it’s […]
{4.5/5} “Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.” In the past a runaway slave asks a young lawyer to help him — or kill him. In the more recent past, an aging composer who hasn’t produced […]
{4.5/5} “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.” Kirk has disobeyed the rules one too many times — this time to save Spock’s life — and is busted down to commander. Then a man named John Harrison blows up a Starfleet facility. The facility is not what it seemed, and the […]
{5/5} “If life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life will be all like ‘Whaaat?’” Haley is off to college, and Lily starts kindergarten. Gloria has her baby, while Cam and Mitch attempt to adopt a second child. Cam gets a new job, and Jay teaches Phil to golf. Phil and Claire’s Valentines’ Day ends with […]
{4.5/5} “Any man has a chance to sweep any woman off her feet — just needs the right broom.” Hitch is known as the Date Doctor — he helps men get dates with the women they’ve fallen for. At the moment he’s helping accountant Albert get a date with famous actress Allegra. Sara is a gossip […]
{5/5} “I just want to feel like me for as long as I can.” Cathy is going through chemo, which is making her feel horrible in itself. She wants to play “The Entertainer” on the piano and tells Paul he should get remarried after she dies. Paul is giving seminars and writing a book. Andrea […]
