Film and Theatre Lover!
So my recent trip down to London I went to see The Elephant Man – Review here. I had to try and see Bradley Cooper at the stage door, so prior to the show I checked out where about’s it was so I could head quickly round at the end. This was successful and very good. As you will see soon though it did not all go to plan at all . . .
After taking part in the History Blogathon and mentioning An Affair to Remember, it made me want to watch it again. In the process it also meant that I am inspired to write this post. The film really does break your heart so many times, it’s quite crazy! So I have picked seven times it manages to do just that. But it could actually be more than seven really.

Well I am currently sat on a train on my return journey home from a couple of days in London. There’s something still so good about trains, and I always love films with a train in them. So decided to pick my 7 favourites!

This blog post is my enter into the Star for a Day competition – read more about it here!
My pick of character will come as no surprise. Elphaba from Wicked!
Itinerary
Day time activity – Go to meet the Wizard so head to Harry Potter Studios
Pre-show activity – Munchkins Restaurant (38 Great Russell St, London WC1B 3PP)
Show – Wicked
Post-show activity – The Green Man Pub (57 Berwick Street, Soho, London, W1F 8SR)
Explanation
Elphaba is a truly inspiring character who never gives up on her dreams. The biggest being to meet the Wizard, so she is bound to find at least one Wizard at the Harry Potter Studios, and I am sure she can learn an extra spell or two as well. Then for some food what better place to head than the Munchkins Restaurant, they are a very big part of Oz after all, in a place that has a big Wizard of Oz theme she would feel right at home. Then to she herself defy gravity and fly at the show of Wicked and then what better way to finish off the day than a drink in The Green Man Pub, after all she wouldn’t be the only green person anymore and might feel a little better about herself!
