...market analysis for him and ultimately recommended engineering companies and headhunters for him to contact. One of these referrals resulted in a job, and a 10% salary increase. "Moving was a difficult decision," says Shillito, who won a promotion with the relocation. "Michael is cut from the traditional mold; it was somewhat hard for him to follow his wife...
Often Glennie would address the audience in her heavy Scottish brogue, and she described the next music, arranged by Ian Finkel, as a "lollipop piece." "The Gypsy Virtuoso" was full of smiling allusions to the Liszt Hungarian Rhapsodies and the Brahms Hungarian Dances, all poured into the formal mold or a concerto movement.

It blatantly cops the perspective and nihilism of Pulp Fiction while riding high off the insouciant youth cool of films such as Fast Times at Ridgmont High. Updated with a late 90s reference, the all-night rave, and late 90s stars, Go is not so much a well-scripted movie as it is an entertainingly frivolous amalgamation of keen actors and cinematographic one-liners. There's a sensation of recognition that pervades the movie, that...
