Danny Collins

Another movie I rented that fit the small screen was Danny Collins inspired by a true story.

The movie was great, but I'm not sure how much was based on his life but the letter.

See, the wiki story here.

Al Pacino, Annette Bening, Jennifer Gardner and Bobby Cannavale  give us great performances.

The supporting characters in this movie advance the fall and decline of Danny Collins.

Then there is little Ms. Eisenberg, creating a moment on film that most kids would have difficulty to achieve

Born to act.

Yet the supporting characters do a few things that make the protagonist change directions.  That is something your novel must always do.

Innovate; don’t repeat the same tired old old stuff that everyone does.  Even Bond gets tired of the same old same.  James Bond (spectre may be mired in the past) But as the new Money Penny said in the last film.  You can teach a new dog old tricks.

Think of something new or maybe you might have a spectacle of a  spectre.

That is the premise of the new bond film and what I hoped not to achieve in Siolam

Or any of this.
