WWZ (and thoughts on viruses)
Rowena J Ronson analyses the movie WWZ (2013) with a focus on the health of humanity…. (I originally published this blog in January 2014, but here it is again as it relevant for our times, I feel. Spoiler alert! So our next world war will be an inside job, according to Hollywood 2013. It will…
Read MoreA Step Beyond (and my thoughts on the film Her)
‘A Step Beyond (and my thoughts on the film Her)’ by Rowena J Ronson There is something so inspiring about an excellent script beautifully portrayed by exceptional actors. When I know that one of my favourites is starring in a new film I get very excited at the prospect of losing myself in the characters…
Read MoreTalking About The Movie Click, And Gratitude
‘Talking About The Movie Click, And Gratitude’ by Rowena J Ronson Since discovering Shadow Work and stepping on to ‘the carpet’ to do a process last month during a wonderful workshop in the West Country, I have been much more aware of my shadow and have been welcoming its presence to create a healthier and more…

‘Talking About Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ by Rowena J Ronson Issues of leadership, conflict and deceit came up for me as I watched the long anticipated sequel to Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Rise ended with the simultaneous escape of the apes into the Redwood forests of California with the…

Reflections on Blue Jasmine (2013) by Rowena J Ronson I had been wanting to see Woody Allen’s latest offering for a long while, but it was only this week that I, at last, managed it. And it was well worth the wait, as the film, in every accomplished way, met the formidably glorious high standard…
Read MoreReflections on ‘The Book Thief’
I have not been so emotionally charged by a film in a long time, so full marks for The Book Thief (2014), as it delivered as powerful an impact as reading the book itself several years ago. Watching the Nazis burning books before their energy turned towards actually killing the Jews, was a reminder of that…

Read MoreThe Fly
Rowena J Ronson revisits a classic shocker and finds a lesson we can apply to our journey through life While watching again David Cronenberg’s The Fly (1986), after nearly 30 years since its release, the gory bits did still have similar shocking effect. But what struck me the most this time, and from the perspective…
Read MoreBlue Is The Warmest Colour
Rowena J Ronson delights in the total intimacy of one of 2013’s most emotion-packed movies. I happened to see the trailer of the new award-winning French film Blue Is The Warmest Color and those few moments were enough for me to immediately book a seat and take myself off to London’s old and characterful Phoenix…
