After 23 years of film criticism, I was back in front of the screen as a civilian. I had no idea what I would find. --by former NY Times film critic A.O. Scott

      Nothing really, I’m just getting old i guess. We would say the shops, but i have seen the Americanisation and people in their teens now call it mall.

      For reference im 29

        Huh, I never realized that was an American word.

          I don’t think it’s really American, i think it’s English, but it’s certainly not Australian.

            It’s “shopping centre” over here but “mall” is becoming more and more common with teens etc.
