By chance I came across this newly published translation of Jean-Pierre Martinet's 1986 novella With Their Hearts in Their Boots. It's a beautifully black and cynical story of life as failure. Despite this, I read every page with a smile on my face (albeit a twisted and grim one)

I'm thrilled to have got hold of this new US Bluray of Charley Chase's 1927 silent shorts. These films are hilarious. Mostly unseen & neglected for nearly 100 years, it blows my mind that we
we only have them now thanks to fans and fanatics who discovered and preserved them ...
