Fifty Shades of Grice

Speranza


From the review of the film "Fifty Shades of Grey" in last Friday's NYT:


"There's also a another room where [Christian Grey, played by Jamie Dornan]

keeps his collection of canes, cuffs, and other specialised equipment. Early

in [his] relationship [with Anastasia Steele (played by Dakota Johnson], he

gives a tour to [her]. 'That's a flogger', he explains, in one of several moments

in [the] script that sound a little redundant."

 

Granted, HPG does NOT have a 'maxim', 'avoid redundancy', but he should!
