blog review:
locust: your note on children dying on the last page is spot on. it affects parents in a very deep way. the same, i think, is the empathy for children who lose their parent(s) at a very young age. it suddenly touches a nerve you didn't realize you had.
i enjoyed pursuit of happyness though i generally dislike will smith. it never really rose above a hollywood cliche, but at the time in my life when i saw it, i had just become a single father (having been shit on by my ex) and it held a sentimentality that was comforting.
i admit i never gave pi much of a chance, but i didn't like what i saw of it. his other stuff is excellent, but i've just had much of an urge to give it another go.
