PHILOSOPHY

By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third, by experience, which is the bitterest.

Music, Movies, and Books

Dragons Den, Ramsay's kitchen Nightmares, The Apprentice, Sharkwater This film does an incredible job of showing sharks as they really are : intelligent, graceful creatures who, like everything else on earth, just want to survive. Clearly some humans are far more cruel, wasteful and downright despicable than these sensitive ocean dwellers. The film not only has stunning undersea visuals, but a compelling human story full of danger, pathos, humour and suspense. I don't agree with everything that the filmmakers say and do, but I admire their courage in fighting for the rights of these misunderstood and critically important animals.
Sharkwater shows that it is in our own best interest to protect sharks, who are a keystone predator of ocean life. How? Most of our oxygen comes from ocean phytoplankton. What happens if the number plankton-eaters gets out of control? Sharks control the many populations under them, effectively keeping the food chain in balance. The loss of sharks could cause one of middle species to explode in population while the others die off. Sharks stabilize the ocean's ecosystem, and this same web of life allows us to live and breathe.
Sharks may seem distant, but indirectly your welfare is connected to theirs. Some parts of the film are a visual treat while other are painful to watch, but overall the film strikes a good balance between warning and hope
Favorite Movies:
Fact preferably and good fiction as long as there not too far fetched for example the Peacemaker, I thought Superman was more believable. But faves are Scarface. The Business. Children of Men, , Goodfellers, A few good men, Philadelphia, Reach for the Sky, Star wars, Long Good Friday, Rise of the foot soldier. Most Channel 4 Films that depict the UK except the ones like Four Weddings, WANTED, dark night
Favorite Books:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've just been in The Scouting Book for Boys it's a dark coming of age tale written by Jack Thorne (of Channel 4's Skins) and directed by Tom Harper. The story follows young David (played by rising young British star Thomas Turgoose), who lives with his friend Emily on a caravan park on the coast of Norfolk. They fill their days walking down water slides and jumping between caravan roofs. Then Emily goes missing and slowly David's life begins to transform in ways he'd never imagined...

The film is produced by Celador Films, the independent UK finance and production company behind Oscar nominated Dirty Pretty Things and horror hit, The Descent.
