Books for Guys: David Gilmour’s The Film Club
I was keen to read The Film Club by David Gillmour then gift it to Adam Kempenaar — the co-host of the Filmspotting podcast. Adam has said he is keen for when his own kids can appreciate his favourite movies. When the time came to give Adam the book, I didn’t do it. I was thrown off by Gillmour’s voice in the book. It reads like a novel especially as he carries his son’s conquests — and the girlfriends’ sexuality — as a narrative thread. Fine in a novel. Creepy in a memoir. Pass on it.
