The places where Tenzing doesn’t work is in repeated flashbacks to Norgay’s younger life. The performances are good, says Carsten, but it feels like a sop to biopic conventions, slick with sentiment and largely unnecessary: halifaxbloggers.ca/flawinthe… #moviereview @FlawInTheIris

Now available on Netflix: Nosferatu, with Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, and Willem Dafoe. Carsten says this Dracula resurrection is faithful to a fault: halifaxbloggers.ca/flawinthe… #moviereview #streamingreviews @FlawInTheIris

Once upon a time, on a dirt road lined with old trees, Stephen Archibald came upon a collection of barns and sheds decorated with fanciful embellishments. Dreamery, Deanery, in the Greenery: halifaxbloggers.ca/noticedin… #novascotia #explore #architecture #design #noticing @Cove17

If Wild Horse is the close of a trilogy of Martin McDonagh’s films about male friendship, it’s nothing to sniff at, says Carsten. It's certainly worth seeing for the performances: halifaxbloggers.ca/flawinthe… #moviereview #nowplaying #incinemas @FlawInTheIris
