Hoping to get back into regular Storify feeds this year. Just depends on how my internet at home goes because it's a tempramental bugger...

A belated week that was. It was a huge week for me personally!

My film review will be published tomorrow night, apologies for the delay.


For now, look back on the last week in news through my eyes if you choose.

I'm documenting the Brownlow Medal as I see it through Twitter on my Storify account.

Rolling throughout the night, so check it out.

I will reveal here that my fave dress of the night was on Belinda Riverso, girlfriend of Rory Sloane. Love cobalt! She looked gorgeous - although it was hard to pick. Even Brynne Edelstein looked nice.

My home city has been the subject of people's attention this weekend as mega boy-band One Direction touched down in Adelaide to start their first Australian tour.

There was a bit of confusion. I concluded people were idiots.

The week leading up to it was interesting enough. As life usually is. Read on!

I had a week off and spent it back home in Adelaide which was fabulous. I relaxed, saw all my friends and family, and even got to the Royal Adelaide Show.

As such, I've been slack in my new Storify venture, but I've caught up. If you want to see what I was interested in this last fortnight, follow the tweets.

Things you may have missed from me this week:


1. I was rather pleased to see all the early responses as news broke that Malcolm Turnbull was correcting an apparently 'poorly worded' policy on internet filtering. You can see some of those responses on my Storify story.

2. I talked about films that were literally too close to home in my latest piece for Movie Mezzanine. Snowtown and The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith are my case studies.

3. goes with 2. in that I learnt a bit more about internet speak...


I thought I knew abbreviations well. But I had to look this one up when a link to my article went up. A couple of nights before I also discovered via a Twitter conversation that IMO is 'in my opinion' (and later piecing together that IMHO adds 'honest').

Makes me feel a little ancient...

I've decided that at the end of the week I'm going to share with you my news consumption.

This inaugural Week That Was compilation is a bit long, I admit, but there was a lot going on! A lot of crazy things going on... Ben Affleck as Batman? A fork inside a man's privates? Can you blame me?

I was a bit late in finding out about the death of Roger Ebert yesterday... I went to bed last night in a really sad state.


The influence of Roger Ebert, film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times, wasn't felt in Australia in the same way as him homeland of the United States or elsewhere (the wonderful Margaret and David of At The Movies fill that spot).

But that didn't matter. His name was enough. His name was synonymous with greatness. Anyone who knows film knows Roger Ebert. Anyone wanting to be a critic held his view with in the highest regard. And it is the world that will rightfully mourn him.

Read the Sun-Times obituary. And see the reactions from the public below. I was that intrigued by the reactions that I created a Storify account to collate some of them:




RIP Roger.
