In a world looking for companionship and love, the warning of not trusting those who advertise on-line has perhaps never been more acute, more relevant. The older we get, the more it is possible to see the depth of our footprints in the sands of time and for those who might take the plunge in holding a hand out for that special someone, you have to ask, have we walked the path where my footprints lay, together before.

Any form of art should be there to inspire, to look upon something that has been created with disdain is not a natural state of mind, regardless say of the genre, the alluded too message, the perhaps dressed up vanity, or even the down at heel scrawled attempt, it is our soul that we are attempting to save, to express, to live with, and in that event of hoped for salvation and appreciation, we feel hope, we touch promise and dare to dream.

We all have that final dream within us, that if the moment comes when we are told there is no hope, that we fight to make hope ours, we go out of the way to remind people that once upon a time, we were incredible and that we should go out the same way, right to the end and the final breath, we must go out the same way we came into the world, as The Leisure Seekers, of always learning, always striving to improve, of seeing hope as our friend.

Eye In The Sky, Film Review. Picturehouse@F.A.C.T., Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

There are many reasons in which to take Eye In The Sky for a simple film about choice, its after effects and the consequences of decision; there are many reasons in which to understand that sometimes the greater good is served by the action of several bad and potentially evil people being taken out and one good person losing their life because of it; what it doesn’t prepare you for is the harrowing nature in which some decisions are formed.

The era of McCarthyism was arguably one of the most shameful times in American politics, one that to this day still sends a shiver down the spine and causes the heart to miss a beat or two as the scare tactics employed by the junior senator and those of involved with the committee hearings dealing with the House Un-American Activities. That shiver should be felt for all time, it should never relent and whilst Arthur Miller brought the nauseous feeling and rising anger superbly to the stage in the classic The Crucible, Trumbo makes it feel so much more modern and dastardly.
