Hanna

I treated myself to a birthday rental of Hanna and so enjoyed it.

The score (from The Chemical Brothers), the directing (Joe Wright, who also made Atonement and Pride and Prejudice), and the performances (I always enjoy Kate Blanchett, but Saoirse Ronan is a force). 

I recommend the John approach of NOT viewing any trailers and going straight to the real deal.

Henry's Bird

Grandma gave Henry a tray of driftwood and a glue gun and then left him alone. He later emerged with this sculpture.
