All titles featured are favourites of mine. They do not follow any particular order but they represent books that I have found moving and uplifting or very informative.

Each book/dvd/cd is owned and treasured by me. ~Mei-Ling


One of my all time favourite films (though I am not sure why as it makes me cry for weeks on end every time I see it!) starring the incredibly handsome Sir Lawrence Olivier and Jennifer Jones.


Another film to make you cry and one that deserves far more attention than it has received.  Starring the beautiful Joan Fontaine and the irresistible Louis Jourdan.  A film that will stay with you for a very long time. 


Another depressingly sad and moving film that has affected me very deeply since I was a young child.  Starring the stunningly beautiful Vivien Leigh and Robert Taylor.
