Princess Bride, The

I saw The Princess Bride because the score was done by Mark Knopfler and I simply fell in love with it. I have lost count of how many times I’ve watched the movie – I just never tire of it.

I finally got the book (from half price) on Feb 20th ’12.

Paper Chase, The

The Book – I never really knew, till very recently, that this was originally a book. It is written by John Jay Osborn Jr and I’m hoping to read it some time soon.

The Movie – I first saw the movie when I was in my early teens (or maybe even a bit younger) and had immediately had it as one of my favorite movies. The fact that the TV series was being shown almost within a few months of that probably helped.

The TV Series – Specially the very first season, about their first year in Law School, was just amazing – or that’s how I remember. I’m almost scared of watching again and being disappointed.

Sep 6th, ’13 – Finally found the movie on Netflix and re-watched it. I am really, really trying to find the TV series to watch.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

Latte & Fahrenheit 451

When I first read Fahrenheit 451, the thing I found most interesting is the fact that this used to be a required reading for high schoolers. It might still be in some / certain school districts but doesn’t seem to be for most schools around me.

Next was the fact that it used to be banned here in the US.
