So commentators have said that the postmodern era is now dead and gone so where does that leave us. I suppose we are in some melting pot of the present out of which may come? In a creative sense it is very exciting as you may imagine yourself as an alchemist playing in the ether, careful how you tread though. What kind of a world do you want to live in? Some movements begun are New Sincerity and Metamoderism.
I watched The King's Speech yesterday. Colin Firth, Helena Bonham Carter and Geoffrey Rush acted wonderfully. It is a good movie, slow paced. It was interesting to see the origins of the child Queen Elizabeth II, hardly any wonder that she casts a cold eye and remains firm in the passing of life. I also watched The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, wonderful to see justice done and the bad guys get their comeuppance at last, what a great trilogy it was and a fantastic character in Lisbeth Salander. Now I'm going to indulge myself in Science Fiction and work on my poems later, I hope!!
