Bunny Lake Is Missing by Evelyn Piper5/26/2023 ![]() ![]() Had Preminger simply shown the young girl at the film's beginning then the audience could have accepted it all as a mystery. The plot is essentially about American Ann Lake (Carol Lynley) and her inability to locate her four-year-old daughter Bunny, whom she claims to have dropped off at a London school just a few days after arriving in the country where she has joined her brother Steven (Keir Dullea), a journalist. It was one of his keenest gifts as a filmmaker. Bunny Lake Is Missing, like Laura and Whirlpool before it, is Preminger engaging in sleight of hand and deception. Figuring out what this movie is becomes akin to determining what happened to the title character. Otto Preminger's Bunny Lake Is Missing gives away the crux of its plot on the poster just as it tricks us into thinking we're in for something like a detective story rather than the psychological drama that eventually unfolds against the shadows of Denys Coop's black and white Scope photography. The title is somehow both on the nose and a little misleading. Less a suspenseful mystery than a psychological drama, the film and disc are given a thorough look from clydefro. His last time working in black and white has become Indicator's first monochrome release as BUNNY LAKE IS MISSING is given a Dual Format edition. ![]() Otto Preminger almost perpetually deserves better but the stars may have finally aligned for once. ![]()

The Last Days of the Dinosaurs: An Asteroid, Extinction, and the Beginning of Our World Riley Black walks readers through what happened in the days, the years, the centuries and the. But what makes this book special is Black’s ability to vividly recreate a mass extinction that, in the blink of an eye, wiped away more than half of the planet’s known species.

Tattooed Teardrops by P.D. Workman5/25/2023 ![]() ![]() She’d been running from some threat, but she’d lost who or what it was. The threads of her dream were still clinging to her brain like wisps of fog. Tamara pushed her blanket off and scrubbed at her eyes with her fists, trying to wake up fully. She was smaller than most of the other girls, certainly no threat to one of the men guarding the block. As if she could have taken him on anyway. Tamara lowered her hands from the defensive position in an attempt to show Kirk that she was fine and wasn’t going to attack him the first chance she got. Kirk stood back, watching her, waiting for her to get her head on straight and get out of bed.
