In My Own Words:
My reviews used to be listed as Richard Scaife, but I have changed my name to Laura Ann Scaife because over the last 28 months I have transitioned from male to female. Just to clear up any confusion!

Interests
My main interests are books and film. As far as books go, I will read anything as long as it it is well written. Military Naval history, pulp fiction of the '30's and '40's, and nuclear physics all interest me. As films go, almost anything made bet… Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Greatness, April 14 2012
This book is extraordinary. When I first recieved my copy in the mail, it took me three days just to skim through it. I wanted to stop and read everything! The recipes are well laid out, the ingredients are listed completely and thought is given to what other things the recipe would go well with. As well, the book has an excellent introduction to Greek food, an excellent glossary and, very importantly, is very well indexed. It also contains some beautiful photographs. This will probably be the only Greek cookbook I will ever buy. It's that good.

I bought this film on videotape years ago and have been hoping, but not expecting, that this would make it to DVD. I love this film. It captures the immediacy of the hustle and bustle of what I always thought was one of the most interesting places in the world - a train station. Throw in William Holden and a nifty kidnapping plot and you have the makings of a great picture. And then there's Barry Fitzgerald, just about perfect working with Holden. The plot is about as taut as you might want, the black and white photography is marvelous (can't wait to see what it looks like on DVD after years of old videotape), the direction is great and the location scenes are marvelous. It may not… Read more
