Andrei Rublev, 1966 - โ โ โ โ
Iโve seen Tarkovskyโs other six films, some more than once. Now Iโve come to Andrei Rublev and of all of them I found this the most difficult to watch. The setting and subjects are just completely unfamiliar to me. Visually impressive and interesting to watch but I needed to refer to a plot synopsis quite a lot to understand events in the film.

Final Test for Jimmy Anderson ๐
So wrapped up in Euro 24 football that I forgot about cricket. Today is the start of the England v West Indies Test series.
The first Test match at Lordโs will be the final international match for Englandโs all-time leading wicket-taker James Anderson.
I will be listening to TMS on the radio for most of the day and possibly catching a little TV coverage. Just hope the weather remains clear enough for the day’s play to go ahead.
