Background:
I have recently been trying to experiment with a few new authors with contrasting styles. I firmly believe you cannot judge any writer until you have sampled a few different offering from them. With that in mind, I thought I would try a very different type of author in the shape of Jackie Collins.
About the author:
Jackie Collins was born in London on the 4th October 1937. In her very colourful life this novelist began life as an actor and appeared in several roles, following in her elder sister Joan?s footsteps. However her real claim to fame is writing, so far she has written 26 novels that have featured in the NewYork Times Best-selling list. She has sold a staggering 400 million copies in over 40 countries, and her controversial work features power, the rich and of course sex.

In 1996, Michael Bay directed the box office smash hit "The Rock", starring Nicholas Cage, Sean Connery and Ed Harris. Although quite a old film, I once again saw this film last week, and I cant seem to get bored of it.
Michael Bay is a brilliant director, his story telling, action sequences and special effects always make a film watchable.
The Plot:
The film revolves around a group of rogue marines, who fed up with the American governments support for war veterans, decide to plot revenge on their own government. Led by Francis X. Hummel (Ed Harris), the marines steal VX nerve gas from a military base. They then find themselves taking hostages at Alcatraz Island, were guided tours are now present. The marines take control of the island, planting the VX nerve gas al over the island ready to launch if needed.
