casa azahar, home, television

Two very different experiences. La Passion de Dodin Bouffant is beautifully shot (and what a kitchen!) and I enjoyed it in spite of La Binoche (I’ve always found her resting smug face off putting). But – and this may be the mounjaro talking – I found some of the big eating scenes at the beginning a bit ick to watch.

Ride or Die is just a lot of silly fun with two actresses that I always enjoy. It’s a series and I’m still only part-way through but already got a bit of a thrill seeing them on the Andalusian Express! What are you guys watching? Any recs?

netflix, the boroughs

What an absolute delight this is! Someone had mentioned it on Bluesky the other day and I wasn’t sure because it’s not really my favourite genre, but turns out it so smart, funny, suspenseful and clever that it’s completely won me over. And what a cast. On Netflix. Still have a couple of eps to go so no spoilers please!

duquesa de alba, netflix, sevilla

Last night I found this on Netflix by chance and decided to give it a go. I don’t know as much about the Duquesa de Alba as my friend Fiona (who I found out is writing her first substack piece on the Duquesa – stay tuned) but she was certainly a vivid presence in Sevilla… I was going to say until her death ten years ago, but her memory lives on here. Anyhow, I really enjoyed this documentary which I think captured the essence of this complex and often controversial woman.
