Two Good Movies

Joe Strombel (Ian McShane) manages to cheat the Reaper after his death and in the words of his colleagues at his funeral chases down a scoop from his grave. He appears to Sandra Pransky (Scarlett Johansson) a journalism student from America and on holiday in the UK at Sidney Waterman (Woody Allen) magic show and fills her in on his story which involves disclosing the name of the Tarot Card Serial Killer in London.

The lead points towards aristocrat Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman) who is not only good looking, but a suave gentleman. The story unfolds and finally Sandra does manage to nail the killer.

The movie is cute and has you guessing all the way. If you want to know who the actual killer is watch this cute, funny odd and thrilling movie and you’ll be in on the Scoop.

My Cousin Vinny is the ultimate funny movie and if you haven’t watched it, you need to right away. The film is about two kids William 'Billy' Gambini (Ralph Macchio) & Stan Rothenstein (Mitchell Whitfield) driving across America to join College. Unfortunate for them, they get picked up and accused of Murder of a convenience store owner in a small town. Not really understanding the accusations, they even admit to it, thinking that they are admitting to Billy having “nicked” something from the store. Only when they realised the gravity of the situation, Billy calls his mom, find out he has a lawyer in the Family, His Cousin Vinny.

Vincent 'Vinny' Gambini (Joe Pesci) and his girlfriend/fiancé Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei) drive down to his rescue. The rest of the courtroom and out of courtroom drama is hilarious. This is Vinny’s first case and he actually doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing, but in his own logical and argumentative style and of course the closing argument of his girlfriend in favour of the defendant’s, saves the day. Marissa Tomei is at her unbelievable best, which even got her the Oscar for the role. Joe Pesci with his straight faced humor is just too good.

My Cousin Vinny is a laugh riot and a must-must watch.

The 7 Wonders at Eco Park

Pyramid & Sphinx Our last excursion to Eco Park in Rajarhat dates all the way back to February 2015. Since then, a myriad of transformations has swept through the park. During a recent journey to the airport, we caught sight of the park's latest additions, which had become the talk of the town, visible from Biswa Banga Sarani. That sighting ignited our decision to revisit the park. Naturally, we concurred that visiting on a weekend would be an exercise in chaos, so we opted for a weekday to fully savor the wonders that awaited us. To our surprise, even on a weekday, the park teemed with visitors. Upon entering Eco Park for a nominal fee of Rs. 30, we were immediately struck by the sheer value it offered. Personally, I would have willingly paid more for the privilege of glimpsing these marvelous creations. Rather than expound further, I'll let the images convey the essence of what lies within. That being said, it unquestionably merits an in-person visit to truly appreciate ...

Vintage Car Show 2018 at The Tollygunge Club

1947 MG TC So here we are once more at The Tollygunge Club on a cold winter morning to catch some rare beauties to warm our hearts. I try to catch these every year if possible and after my recent trip and the number of cars I've seen on it, one would think I'd give it a miss. This year's collection had most of the usual cars with an addition of some more to the fray.  What disappointed though was the limited number of super cars on display. But all that said, it's always a joy to see these wonderful gems still being cared for by their owners and offering us a glimpse into automotive history. So with that much said, I hope you'll enjoy the pictures of the cars below. 1947 MG TC 1938 Rolls-Royce 1938 Rolls-Royce 1953 Land Rover 1932 Ford V8 1932 Ford V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1956 BSA Bantam 1952 Willy's Jeep 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1925...
