Facebook Portal vs. Amazon Echo Show (2nd gen) - Digital Trends Facebook Portal vs. Amazon Echo Show (2nd gen) - Digital Trends Posted: 03 Jan 2020 12:00 AM PST If you're looking for a smart display that's large and has a lot of great features, the Facebook Portal and Amazon Echo Show are both great choices.

Wright's fifth feature, Baby Driver, focuses on exploiting the relationship between image and sound. The film follows a getaway driver named Baby (Ansel Elgort) who is on the autism spectrum and will put his foot to the floor only if he's listening to audio accompaniment on his headphones.
