I know it's dumb. But it's also unwatchable, so the full extent...

Here’s a photo from the Cannes film festival showing Ritchie and Madonna puting on a brave show of unity for the cameras……. but alas I can report that my man in MOONRAKER LAND says when at home in the stately country pile they inhabit separate wings and comunicate only by text. Madonna moans that Guy loves [...]

Sebastian Faulks selected forty books for the bookstore Waterstone's to feature in-store. Two titles to make the list (as reported by the Times): MOONRAKER by Ian Fleming Early Bond. He doesn't sleep with the girl and the big dénouement is in Kent. It breaks all the rules and it really only has three scenes. But what good scenes they are.
