September 5, 2010: Tony Blair’s JOURNEY: Been there, done that on film
As one reads Tony Blair's new memoir, for which he reportedly received a $7 million advance, one gets a feeling of, to steal shamelessly from Yogi Berra, déjà vu all over again. In the introduction of A Journey: My Political Life, Blair states that, with only one chapter covering 2007 to now, the book spans the period from 1997 to 2007. Film buffs who do not want to spend $35 retail for the hardcover book can watch not only one movie, but three of them, to get the Cliff Notes on Blair’s ascension to and occupation of the office of Prime Minister.
