I'm still not through with this 'writing'

This is obviously a news account but, by golly ... it reads like a 1930's American investigative reporter movie ....

I think I remember one with Cary Grant and another with Jimmy Stewart .... both true investigative stories put down on film.


I return me now to my favorite movie channel

Maybe you mean Call Northside 777.

Me too. After reading a few paragraphs, I thought I was reading a novel. Is this the latest from John La Carre?

I couldn’t get more than about three paragraphs into this dime store novel. One of our local papers has a writer who churns out tripe like this. His name is Andrew Dys, but we just call him Dystopian.
