Just watched the German movie 'Nowhere In Africa' , about a Jewish family living in Kenya during WW2 ,which is very well acted and filmed .
On wednesday evening I watched Basic Instinct 2 : A hilarious opening sequence and rather a limp ending but in between it's entirely watchable and more intelligent than B/ I  1 .

Have been given , by a couple in this road a cd of music recorded by their son and his friend , which they brought out themselves rather than through any record company , with lyrics on one track by his girlfriend : They're quite good musicians but the overall result seems to me to be pretencious self-indulgent rubbish which no one would want to buy unless as a kindness to them , but , what do I know , even the  beatles were initially turned down by a record company but , that's what I think and , if I say nothing to them about it I'll seem discourteous , if I tell them the truth of what I feel it'll be downright rude , if I say "it's great" I'll be downright dishonest , and if I say "hmmmm , it's , interesting" they'll know what I really mean , so , advice please :  What , if anything , should I say to them about it ?
