ReplyDeleteFun summer fun!
DeleteArt (treasure) that funds terror (blood). Sounds interesting and relevant. It will depend now on how well the leading actors will do with their parts.
ReplyDeleteJudging from the trailer they're not very good, but they're cute if that counts :)
DeleteIt sounds interesting. I am going to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteWe're off to Egypt with them next week!
