Started to read it, but it has some spoilers for Furiosa, which doesn’t open in my country until Friday.
Miller is a helluva director and his thoughts about film’s language being created during the silent is a great observation.

Sorry about that. If the mods wish to add a spoiler alert warning, that would be great.

I'm with Morpeth about Babe, Pig in the City. I originally watched it when my kid was small, but it's a fantastic and beautiful film. Nothing wasted. Mickey Rooney's last role, and he was brilliant in it.
