Both of these men ended up killing their woman out of pure jealousy. In My Last Duchess the speaker says “Somehow—I know not how—as if she ranked my gift of a nine-hundred-year-old

My Life So Far is a pleasantly nostalgic look at a few transformative months in the life of a 10-year old Scottish boy. Brought to the screen by director Hugh Hudson and producer David Puttnam (who collaborated on Chariots of Fire)‚ My Life So Far provides 90 minutes of solid entertainment that runs the gamut from outright hilarity to melodrama.
