I had couple things on Spectrum Culture this week. In the Film section, I reviewed Womb, a film that continues the unexpected British trend of gentle sci-fi stories about cloning, a distinct subgenre done exceedingly well in Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel Never Let Me Go and less so in the film adaptation of the same book. Womb is further proof that we all would have been better off in Ishiguro’s original work was allowed to be the sole and final work of art on that front.

I fared a little better with my selection in the Music section, offering an assessment of the new album by Great Lake Swimmers. It was a particularly harried week on the work front, so it was exceedingly difficult to carve out the time to tap out my words. I have no other background information to provide on that process. I just hope that what I came up with is cogent.
