    The thing I love most, aside from your 20 channels, which I listen to all the time, (and have been since you only had, like, 3) is the fact that I can listen to them on my walks and not have watch them on TH-cam, with the pictures, that are fun, but miss absolutely nothing in context. Excellent narration, and your asides 😂. I also like that you’re like me, “wait I need to look this up!”.

    Recently rewatched The English Patient. Great film but the true story is much more involved. Thank you!

    The film received twelve nominations at the 69th Academy Awards, winning nine, including Best Picture, Best Director for Anthony Minghella, and Best Supporting Actress for Juliette Binoche. It was also the first to receive a Best Editing Oscar for digitally edited film. Ralph Fiennes, playing the titular character, Kristine Scott Thomas were Oscar nominated for their performances. The film also won five BAFTA Awards and two Golden Globes.

      That's who I thought it was at first. Voldemort was based on a real person who had really bad plastic surgery? I thought. Poor guy!

    I always enjoyed The English Patient but as myself being half Hungarian I knew the true story. But that doesn’t take away from a movie that never stated true story.

      I wish more movies would avoid putting "based on a true story" when the story bears no resemblance to the film plot

    Please!! 'Onda-che'. Not 'Ondatee'. Otherwise, very interesting. I was impressed with Fitzroy McClean's stories of the Long Range Desert Group in his book Eastern Approaches. It's fascinating to hear it mentioned again.

    Gy in Hungarian is always pronounced like a J. So Gyorgy should sound just like the English name George. (More or less)

    I really like your videos simon and they are a refreshment for all off these 💩 A.I. videos 😀...
    If i can make a suggestion , please concentrate on a few channels simon.
    Quality is more important than quantity 😀.

    • @felbarashla
      @felbarashla 20 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Do you think he is not doing a good job as host? He doesn’t research or write these scripts. He reads what they write for him and he sends it to an editor so it looks and sounds good. He is mostly the management.

    • @itarry4
      @itarry4 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yhea he could easily manage another couple of channels. He reads scripts and organises getting them written, etc not write them himself and it wouldn't matter how many he did as the quality wouldn't suffer at all. I'm hoping he does a nature one like places but with Animals, plants, etc.

    @stancil83 20 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    I'm sorry I just can't. I gave it a try. But I just keep zoning out. I could swear I watched this movie, I just don't remember any of it. So this is not your fault Simon. You could probably bore a hole through Earth with this story. I'm pretty dumb anyways. Voldemort brought me here.

    How many ways can you mispronounce the author of this book.
    Almost every Canadian ... just knows how to say it.
    Michael Ondaatje - as in phonetically - On-dot-chee-ay
    Most ...including him, usually say it quickly as On-dotch-ee

      Porsche was founded in 1931, they were building tanks for Germany during the war... There was even a Porsche Tiger I prototype.
