Miscellaneous Movie Musings: Part XXI

As the title suggests, so forth.

Hither and thither Fassbender

Well then, it turns out, after some wailing and gnashing of teeth hereabouts recently about his next move, that Michael Fassbender has in fact been racing fast cars for the last while after his series of disasters at the multiplex and art house.  And you can follow his progress in an episodic documentary. This should have been predictable: did Fassbender not do amazingly well on Top Gear‘s Star in a Reasonably Priced Car?  did Fassbender not get on famously with Idris Elba who managed to get a Discovery show out of racing fast cars and other dangerous pursuits?
