Every once in a while I remember why I’m living in London, and what it actually means to live here. I’m walking with Helen out from Angel Tube station and we’re talking about general stuff, mainly where to eat. I say you know what let’s keep walking and see what jumps out at us. At this point I say, oh yeah I’m reading this incredibly engrossing book right now, it’s called ‘The Corporation", at that moment I look to my left and we’re standing at that very moment in front of a cinema with the movie poster for the documentary, and I go " Oh my god, talk about timing". Then I look at the title board of the Cinema and it’s got written:

Holy Fuck it’s the premiere in London and two of the creators are going to be in the audience. I quickly grab Helen by the wrist and run into the theatre to see if there’s any tickets available. There were 2 left !!!!!!! The guy was holding them in his hand.

What can I say the movie is 2 1/2 hours long. It’s an epic. Is it as well put together as Farenheit 9/11, well I think Moore has had more expereince in these matters and a bigger budget and therefore more people working on it with him, however these guys really know the way forward to starting activism. The movie also ends with Micheal Moore which I thought was brilliant. Some of the stuff in there is amazing footage, that I think people really should sit through and experience.

The Q&A was also amazing to watch. Unfortunately my camera is crap for night photography which means I really need to sort this crap out as soon as possible. Here’s some of the stuff I got from the cinema visit (appart from the book of course).

It’s great research material for the second book I’m working on. I’ve set myself a deadline to complete the notes on my first draft, but it’s also pretty good feeling to know that these guys spent 5-6 years on this thesis of a movie/book and all their hard work paid off in the end. Inspiration to me in more than one way

Some things are just meant to be, this was/is just one of the great things about London.
