Iโ€™ll definitely try it out! Iโ€™m a fan already.

Subtle where it needs to be subtle, melodramatic where it needs melodrama, sexy and romantic. Absolutely loved it.

Halfway and this is a movie with some truly beautiful actors!

I loved it too. Fair play to the Waterstones seller who recommended it.

I still regularly get emails that start Hi Gordon. Which is both annoying and really sums up the laziness of financial services workers. (I mean this so true of me but I do at least try to get the name of the person Iโ€™m contacting right, even if everything after that might be pure nonsense!)

One for my Christian name which Iโ€™ve not seen and one for my surname (the bane of my school years!)

Didnโ€™t pay attention to the poster AT ALL! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Could have picked Godfather Part 2 and I want to see the Bright Lights Tonight!

Great year for art, terrible for everything else: the 3 day week, Edward Heath and a minority government, Nixons resignation, bad scenes in Vietnam. What a year to be born! Haha.

Imagine the disappointment of all those record buyers! ๐Ÿ˜‚

(I like Nebraska of course)

Haha. It seems like an odd way to reach a mass audience I must say!

I think Iโ€™ll wait until it streams to enjoy the spiral of depression. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iโ€™m shocked there is such a widespread knowledge of Ibsen. I know nothing about it. Haha

Haha. Although, I must say, Claire Foy is one of my favourite actors. She almost always improves a film.

Mind you, it wouldnโ€™t hurt if Trump switched off Fox News and listened to, I dunno, The Rest Is History, for a change. ๐Ÿ˜‚

radio sets. Lee rails against AI, digitalised music and phones (like an old man shaking his fist at the clouds)

The analogue future awaits.

I watched The Mastermind and Highest 2 Lowest yesterday. Both excellent films and interesting enough that I have spent the morning thinking about them.

There is one vague similarity. Reichardt sets her film in the 70s and there a number of scenes that involve manned ticket booths, landlines and..

So that will be the second time Iโ€™ve tried to make coffee in a stove top pot without any water.

Bialetti will be happy that another order will be coming to them for replacement parts. Surviving as a business on the senility of its customers.

Itโ€™ll probably be bad but, hey, maybe not!

Just wondering why we have a new Black Phone movie and then I looked up the original and see it made ยฃ160m. So thatโ€™s why.

You wonโ€™t be able to play Fortnite or Roblox either. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Or films like The Silence where the only guests appear to be circus dwarves and angst.

Haha. He made After Hours when his career went down the toilet after King of Comedy, probably the closest he got. Only 5 hour masterpieces from now on.
