I can't wait for this film. As you know, how much I admire Irish literature and the writings of John Banville and I will watch anything and everything if Charlotte Rampling is in it - she's my favourite actress of all time. "I must go down to sea again" - I love this poem and song - I adore Thomas Allen's rendition of this song. I hope all is well with you. I've been quite busy recently but I hope to update with you with some news soon. Thank you so much for your recent comment on my blog. You're such a great reader! It's wonderful to have someone who understand my irony :-)<br /><br />Best wishes, ASDA Super Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640893790909916004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4571340508841427418.post-38449265346011765322013-10-26T02:28:50.479-07:002013-10-26T02:28:50.479-07:00Such a lovely poem, Helen.
