My Days of Mercy, 2017 - ★★
It's the chemistry between Page and Mara that makes this film. It's clear what the film wants to be but it fails to either unlock the complexity of the relationships (between all the characters) or explore the conflict between the opposing sides at the death row protests within its 100 minutes.
Day 22: insect #mbmar
Day 21: tiny #mbmar
Picked this collection up on the beach a few weeks ago
Day 20: houseplant #mbmar
Not many to choose from - I chose this because it’s the only one that looks remotely healthy 😳
Day 19: analogue #mbmar
Day 16: road #mbmar
Day 15: patience #mbmar
As the temperature drops outside I’m waiting to hear whether hockey training is going ahead tonight
Finished reading: Over Sea, Under Stone by Susan Cooper 📚
Bloomin’ marvellous! Sending this on to my Mum to read to my nephews at bedtime - two things they love are quests and King Arthur.
Day 14: horizon #mbmar
Not much to see out there today, much like this pic from the same time last year
Day 13: connection #mbmar
One connection in a piece of neon art yet to be installed
Tomorrow I will leave the house
Day 12: shiny #mbmar
Day 11: gimcrack #mbmar
Never seen this word before so had to look up the definition. Reckon the closest term we use in the UK is knick-knack. Searched the flat and then remembered this…
Day 10: ritual #mbmar
Reading in bed with the first cup of tea is how we start every day
Day 9: together #mbmar
This photo of me and my eldest nephew has pride of place on the mantelpiece. It was taken on their first visit to us

Not for long 😋
