Corned beef was boiled and eaten yesterday - for those who don't know Irish/american corned beef is a world apart from the cheap Argentine mush we get over here. Tom is right when he says that this beautiful and thrifty dish is sublime, and I'm looking forward to his corned beef hash recipe.
In filmic news, I have eschewed the lure of mainstream twice this week, taking in Pieces of April (music by the god-like Stephin Merritt) and the achingly-long but visually stunning Il Gattopardo . Both recommended,
but for god's sake watch Il Gattopardo on a lazy sunday afternoon, and not at night when your wife is liable to fall asleep or complain all the way through the last half an hour.
Also, I have a new website.
