A very engaging novel, and might even have scored higher, except that it doesn't have any coherent philosophy, but to say that philosophy is not effective; people act the way they do according to passions, etc. The bondage probably refers to the hero's passion for Mildred, a worthless girl who is not even physically his type, has no character, class or intelligence.
Very well written, with a great blending of introspection and action.
Have you seen the scene in Apocolypse Now where the Playboy bunnies are entertaining the troops when the troops start to storm the stage? This is anthem to hot girls that will make you want to storm the stage.
Plot: A girl from Brooklyn moves to NYC to make her career as song-writer, but is afraid of singing. This one is not going to win any awards, but it's a nice, entertaining feel good flick. Plus, some hot girls dancing.
Like Flashdance, a good "aspiring artist" in the big city movie. Moral: Classic overcoming fear flick
This is a fun show that was, for some reason canceled by HBO, despite continuing things of much less value (See "Girls") Two young guys living in New York City try to make a living with various ventures, including starting a fashion line. A fairly realistic, yet very amusing, look at the ups and downs of trying to get by, and have a life, while making your fortune.
Created by Ian Edelman. With Bryan Greenberg, Victor Rasuk, Lake Bell, Eddie Kaye Thomas.
