Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Judd Apatow is justifiably being lauded as the saviour of mainstream American comedy. After the combined brilliance of The 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up and Superbad, the man undeniably has the Midas touch. Following the relative misfire of Owen Wilson vehicle Drillbit Taylor, Apatow is back on top form here and anyone who cast doubt over his decision to cast Russell Brand in a leading role will be sorely disappointed. Against all odds, the louche Brit almost single-handedly walks away with the entire film.
Long-term Apatow collaborator Jason Segal wrote the script and also plays leading man, Peter Bretter, who is unceremoniously dumped by the titular Sarah Marshall Kristen Bell, as seen in last month’s GQ. This being a Judd Apatow film, she dumps him as he stands there with his cock out one is obliged to use the Apatow vernacular when reviewing his films, don’t you know. To overcome the humiliation, Bretter heads to Hawaii only to find Miss Marshall holidaying in the same resort ...

Flashbacks Of A Fool
In an scene sure to delight blue-swimsuit lovers everywhere, Flashbacks Of A Fool opens with a flash of Daniel Craig’s naked form as he romps with not one but two nubile ladies, incongruously set to a soundtrack of Scott Walker’s “Jacques Brel”. But pleasures of the flesh aside, all is not well with Joe Scott Craig , a coke-snorting, wayward Hollywood actor whose age and behaviour makes him increasingly less hireable. After a heated meeting with his agent, Joe cools off in the Pacific Ocean. Cue the titular reminiscences, as the teenage Joe Harry Eden indulges in his own Seventies summer of love and eventual tragedy on the English coast, set to a toe-tapping soundtrack of Bowie and Roxy Music.
Penned by writer/director Baillie Walsh for his friend Craig several years BB Before Bond, there’s a delicious irony in watching the latter send up the leading man reputation he now enjoys. Flashbacks has its flashes of brilliance, not least the scene in which the young Joe and his first love ...
Strawberries
The fragrantly sweet juiciness and deep red color of strawberries can brighten up both the taste and aesthetics of any meal; it is no wonder they are the most popular berry fruit in the world. Although strawberries have become increasingly available year-round, they are at the peak of their season from April through July when they are the most delicious and most abundant.
While there are more than 600 varieties of strawberries that differ in flavor, size and texture, one can usually identify a strawberry by its red flesh that has yellow seeds piercing its surface, and the small, regal, green leafy cap and stem that adorn its crown. In addition to strawberries that are cultivated, there are also varieties that grow wild. These are much smaller in size, but feature a more intense flavor.
