COMICS: Building Stories by Chris Ware

Chris Ware won numerous awards for his first graphic novel, Jimmy Corrigan, but his new one, Building Stories, is far more ambitious. It comes in a box which contains 14 different books and pamphlets of different sizes that you can read in any order. As you read, you begin to understand the lives of the different characters, who all live in the same building. It's an original piece of storytelling and a beautiful work of art.

CINEMA: Rush

Ron Howard's action biopic tells of the intense rivalry between two legendary Formula One drivers

Director: Ron howard

Stars: Chris Hemsworth, Daniel Brühl

Story: legendary Formula 1 rivals batlle for Gran Prix victory

Back in the 1970s, Formula One was still crazy sport – of the 25 drivers who began the championship each year, an average of two died in crashes. So, althought it wasn't exactly The Hunger Games, there was an air of the gladiator contest about it. And the greatest battle of those days was between a talented, but cold and arrogant Austrian, Niki Lauda, and a charming English playboy called James Hunt. Lauda was a total professional, his very move calculated in advance. Hunt was impulsive, unpredicable, and probably the last of the gentlemen amateurs in the sport.

Rush tells the history of their rivalry from the beginning of incredible 1976 championship, right up to the climax, which was decided on the last lap of the last race of the season. Chris Hemsworth is perfect as James Hunt, irresistibly sexy and funy. But the real heart of story is Niki Lauda's amazing return to his Ferrari just weeks after he almost died in the crash taht left him horrible disfigured.
