Spotted this in Tesco Express, Donnybrook [Dublin] at around 6pm last night. You could still hear cheers of “Katie” and “ole” coming from Kiely’s across the road. You can take our pie but you’ll never have our Katie…etc..

1. Clint Eastwood doesn’t step in front of the camera all that often these days. This is his first acting gig since Gran Torino (2008), and the first movie he’s been in that he hasn’t directed since In The Line Of Fire (1993). Clint is 83, and it should probably be noted that he could still kick your ass.

2. Amy Adams is the go-to gal for great American filmmakers right now; she’s in the next P.T. Anderson movie, the next David O. Russell movie and the next Spike Jonze movie – oh, and she’s the new Lois Lane.

3. Justin Timberlake is DETERMINED to rock this whole movie star thing. He should do more comedy.

4. Fact: this movie would automatically be better if Clint had an orangutan sidekick.

5. That said, enjoy 170 Great Clint Eastwood Quotes.

The wings move, the cargo bay and drive light up and there’s a full set of custom minifigs to complete the effect.

MORE THAN €30 million has been paid out by the Department of Social Protection in rent deposits for social welfare recipients since 2006.

Although deposits are refundable at the end of a tenancy, none of the money has been returned to the department. It is not known if the money is being withheld by landlords or kept by the tenant after it has been handed back.

… of the €32.3 million paid to landlords in deposits in the last six years, the department said it has no record of any money being returned.
