Review Quickies

The final book of the writer of Rebecca is the atypical effort Rule Britannia, a political satire about the U.S. invading the U.K. and the rebellion led by an elderly former actress and her young charges. Quite readable with an interesting p.o.v. of her granddaughter, not totally gung ho about it all. Prime is a slight but well put together wry film about a woman dating a younger man who turns out to be her therapist's son. Leads do well. Interesting ending.
