WINE-THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS!

"Face the Fire" was one of the trilogies written by Ms. Roberts which I had read a couple of years back. Since then my interests started spreading towards the romantic genre too. The provocative fact is that you get easily turned on while tasting romance through reading. It kind of leaves you behind with a sensuous overflow of feelings that makes you want to curl up with the book until the upshot is gone.

The Giambelli-Macmillan vineyards make a superlative set-up for a compelling tale filled with charming love scenes and often incalculable turn of events. The passion keeps building up page by page between the characters which unassumingly wants us to see more chemistry and action.

From the unfolding stage to the maturing stage of relationships between two individuals, the cycle of love has been beautifully made analogous to the process of Winemaking. On the whole, "The Villa" leaves us wasted, utterly, lusciously wasted by the euphoric words.

MOVIE REVIEW-POSSUM

Possum (2018) Director: Matthew Holness Starring: Sean Harris, Alun Armstrong A defamed children's puppeteer who is emotionally unstable and psychologically scarred plans to dispose of his grotesque puppet.

ALL FOR NOTHING

A text's verbosity reaches unfathomable grandiosity when poetry meets prose. Michael Ondaatje is gifted enough to weave a tale that's tragic in parts but wholly serene. At its core, "In the Skin of a Lion" treads the rugged path that courses a life chart making the journey somewhat worthwhile. Patrick Lewis is wildly swayed by the situational currents while what he truly yearns for is an ounce of regulated love. Love that is messy, uncompromising and effusively profound enough to make him feel things. At the fag end of his life, Patrick understands the universe's twisted sense of humour. In Patrick's case, timing plays a cursed role. Expectations are detached to deadlines. Everything has to run its course. Alignments don't care about our whims and fancies. "Trust the process", we've been told. But here's the neat part. By the time the pieces fall into place, everything ceases to makes sense; all dwindled down to a bunch of baloney. Al...

MOVIE REVIEW-EAST SIDE SUSHI

East Side Sushi (2014) Director: Anthony Lucero Starring: Diana Elizabeth Torres, Yutaka Takeuchi This movie has a beautiful, dramatic plot that brings together the mouth-watering cuisines of Mexico and Japan. Juana (J, silent) is a single Mexican mother living with her elderly father and her young daughter managing her own little roadside fruit stall.

Devastated, she starts looking for jobs. There is a job opening in a Japanese restaurant for a Maid who is expected to clean the utensils and maintain the pantry. Though being an amazing cook herself, Juana would have expected a better position, she takes up this job without complaining.
