EASY VIRTUEDespite a sterling cast, wonderful location work and a script based on the play by Noel Coward, Easy Virtue never quite hits the right note as a film. It’s as if it has a sore throat and can’t decide whether to sing a little flat or a little sharp. It doesn’t help that the storyline is now exceedingly dated ? a ‘racy’ American woman (she’s actually a racing car driver) marries the son of English landed gentry and comes a cropper at the hands of his somewhat bigoted family. ... more |

I guess that is what people call destiny! ... more |

For one week only the Fujifilm FinePix J15fd Camera will be sold at half its regular retail price of £179.99, at a budget-busting sum of £89.99. ... more |
