About half a year ago, I took advantage of a sale to buy some classical books I’d been long longing for. Amongst others, there were Horace’s Ars Poetica and Lucretius’ De Rerum Natura. That may or may not be the reason why most of the Fortune Cookie sections on this blog are filled with Latin.

When I noticed The Mirror Has Two Faces had become available on a streaming platform, my watch list promptly got longer. It’s a nineties rom-com with brightly lit photography, the female protagonist is played by Barbra Streisand, who has made some great music. What’s not to like?
