Holly is a writer and more! She’s an illustrator, a photographer, and a cook. She even has a storefront online at Zazzle. She’s a southpaw with spirit, and I look for her bear icon on every post, because I know Holly will have something bright to say. Visit her for a daily glow!
Hollywood Spy
Dezz reports the latest in Hollywood. He’s everywhere. He even featured my book when it was released, despite the fact it had nothing to do with movies. Someday, Dezz!. Visit the Hollywood Spy for the movie news
And speaking of movies...
Staring: Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, Cate Blanchett
"Raised by her father to be the perfect assassin..."
This movie is not what it seems - think art house action flick. It's more about Hanna's journey of discovery as she's exposed to the world for the very first time. Beautifully shot with emphasis on light, it moves at a slower pace than normal. But when the action occurs, it's sharp and packs a punch. Ronan is perfect in the role and capture's Hanna's innocence. For something truly unique, you must check out this film. I really dug it!
And look, my movie review even lined up with "H." Cool!

Great Hs, Alex! I haven't heard of this film.
Hope you're having a good weekend so far!
I kept myself updated with the movies with Hollywood Spy.
Have a nice weekend Alex.
Looks like an interesting movie. I haven't heard of it before.
Holly is such a wonderful blogger. She's always ALWAYS leaving comments. And I feel guilty for not alwys making it to her blog! :o) I drop in on Hollywood spy now and then too. But I don't often know what to say so don't comment. But his posts are interesting and do read them! :o)

I've been dying to see Hanna for a while now. Very convenient lettering for the challenge... Thanks for the review and the recommendation!
Great bloggers for sure.
Oh I really wanna see this movie!!
Hanna is going to be a five star film. Makes you wonder what woul hav happened if Danny Boyle had stayed on as director though...
Great links, I love Hollywood Spy. I've seen trailers for Hannah and am looking forward to seeing it. It looks fantastic.
Oooh I wanna see Hanna now!! Yay!! thank you for the info and review!!
And double Yay for these fab H bloggie friends!!! I need my daily glow and have plenty of love to show too! :-) Take care

Two great features and an interesting movie review. Have a great weekend.

Thoughts in Progress
I can't wait to see this movies. It's right up my alley!
From the trailers, I thought Hanna would either be really good, or a bomb. I'm glad you dug it!
I was hoping to get to see you go all ninja on someone, but my assistant director's call may have done the trick. Another former teacher, who's now in charge of the EDU dept. has vowed that I WOULD get into the class in the fall. Yay! Thanks for the support :)
I am intrigued by Hanna - I hadn't heard of it until now. Sounds like something I would like.
How have you got time to review films Alex.....lol
Have a lovely week-end.
Yvonne.
LOL Bit OCD with the alphabet thing, Alex. This movie is one of the few on my To See list.
Back to A-Z, my second entry...H now up Alex!
Cool movies you've served this time...:)
Hanna....haven't heard of it but it does sound interesting
thank you for your post
have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks for the film tip!
"H" is for "Hanna"! Yay! :)
I loved the previews and I'm so looking forward to it.
Alex, I'm watching "Source Code" this Thursday, and I can't wait. I have big expectations about it. Hopefully it will pay off.
MJ, it's a cool flick.
Maurice, it wouldn't have been as good.
Words, that's great! I can still go all Ninja if you like...
Yvonne, I don't even review a tenth of the ones I watch!
Nebular, hope it doesn't disappoint.
I've seen the TV trailers for Hanna, which were hard to get a good feel for the movie. After reading your review I'll have to see it sometime.
More new bloggers to check out!
Perhaps I'll watch that film on DVD along with the umpteen others queueing up for my attention!
Dezz is great. In fact, I first heard about Hanna on his site. Love the Hollywood Spy. Good H shout out.
I'll have to check out the movie! Hadn't heard of it before.
Au shuck, you’ve gone and made me blush.
I just saw the trailer for Hanna this week. It looks wonderful.
New movies and new blogs! Sounds like I just figured out what I am going to do this weekend. Thanks!
I enjoy Holly's and Dezz's blogs. Haven't seen Hanna yet -- thanks for the rec!!
Thanks for the links and the review. I was not impressed by the trailer for the movie, but your review may change my mind.
For 'H', I wrote about Harry Potter and games and toys. :)
Cate Blanchett is awesome; I'll watch anything she's in.
The film sounds surprisingly good.
Nice words about Dez and his blog.
Great review; I like movies, like that~ I could use some punch ;-D
Great H bloggers; I will go visit and show my love n' bask in their shiny brightness~
Claire, the trailers don't portray the movie accurately.
Jabblog, sounds like my NetFlix queue.
LG, yes he is.
All true, Holly!
Betty, the trailer really doesn't do it justice.
Ric, all true words.
Thanks for movie review. I saw the Hanna trailer recently and it aroused my interest.
I, too, wanted to see this one. Glad to see a review on it beforehand.
Alex thanks for the comment, when you wrote "I'm Trying" did you mean you were doing your best to make someone happy or "I'm trying meaning I'm a very trying person?????
Yvonne.
Edi, it was really good.
Yvonne, I meant I'm trying to make someone happy.
I'm seriously behind with movies so I'm definitely following Hollywood Spy now. Hanna looks great.
On, Dez and Holly ARE fantastic.
Have a great weekend, Alex.
The reviews for Hannah is getting great reviews. I'll watch it on Monday probably by myself as wifey is not into movies like this.
Don't ya just love it when the universe conspires to give you what you need. Like the movie Hanna coinciding with the letter H? Make it an excellent weekend, Alex!
Glad you mentioned Dez. He is truly one of the good ones. He's very supportive of all I do also.
I am glad you mentioned HANNA too. I didn't even know about it until I saw the trailer. It looks terrific and I really like the young actress involved, Saoirse Ronan. I had trouble with her last move 'The Lovely Bones' but it wasn't because of her performance. So many good young actresses out there these days and she is definately one of them.
thanks for the new links, off to clink them now
Thanks Alex. I'd seen the advertisements for Hanna and has been wondering about it.
I was thinking of taking my daughter to see this. Teenage girls need to see strong young girls and this looks like it fits the bill.
I want to see this!! Ah, you always give us so many fun things to check out :)
There was a trailer for than Hanna movie in the one my son and I watched tonight--it looks pretty good.
Jeffrey, making it so!
Kal, she was incredible in this role. You'll like it.
Hi there Alex,
Very good and I shall check out those awesome bloggers.
So pleased to see the 'alphabet challenge' has now reached the letter 'H'.
Now then, my friend, 'I' wonder what could possibly be the next letter in this fascinating alphabet challenge?
Take very good care and soon you will have reached the letter 'K' :)
Hanna looks like a great movie!
Yeah I am wanting to see Hanna as well. The trailers look good and intriguing.
I haven't heard of Hanna before, but it sounds good. Thanks for the recommendation, Alex. :)
More fabulous links and a great movie review. Thank you!
Ellie Garratt
Klahanie, still three weeks to go!
Hope more people go see Hanna. Can't believe the crappy remake of Arthur is going to make more money this weekend!
thank you for your visit to my place, Alex!
looking forward to another week of the Challenge!
have a wonderful day!
I just saw a preview for this the other day, and can't wait to see it. You're review is just fuel for the fire.
Thanks,
Tomara
That's a great review, Alex, and impressive H blogs too.
Be well.
xoRobyn
Alex, a clever use of "H!" From the Hannah commercials, it was tough to see what it's truly about. Thanks!
Wait. This isn't a biopic about Darryl Hannah? Crap.
Hope, glad you're enjoying ti!
Tomara, it's great.
Rusty, you will just have to use your imagination.
Two deserving H blogs to win recognition here. Saw the Hannah trailers on TV over the past few days and they didn't really catch my attention. Now I guess I'll have to be on the lookout for this one when it hits Netflix.

I really want to see Hanna. After reading your review, I want to read it even more!
Sorry I haven't been commenting. I assure you I've been reading EVERY post. Just trying to take it easy.
i really enjoyed hanna. It had a slightly strange feel to it, which i loved.
I just saw Hannah & really enjoyed it. She kicked some butt and then was so innocent, talk about yin & yang! LOL
Stop in and give my blog a read at The Voices Within Unleashed
Yay for the "H"s!! These two bloggers are awesome! :)
