Can this be a solution?
Sorcerer (1977), Dir. William Friedkin
I've been getting some really interesting responses to my survey on how journalists are using (or not using) AI in newsrooms in Ireland.
If you haven't already, I'd be grateful if you could take the time to fill it out too - or share it around. You may also want to make fun of my handwriting.
Noises Off is great. A very skilfully done play adaptation and not an easy thing to make cinematic. Definitely a good director imo.

Just finished watching Edge of Darkness for the first time since 1985 and now feel very melancholy. 40 years ago, I thought there would be more drama series like it in the future, the weirdness of cult TV spliced with the intelligence and depth of the best drama. Turned out there was only that one.
Probably my favourite tv drama. Nothing else like it.
This is the best analogy I’ve heard about AI.
I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.
This is the timeline cleanse I needed today.
Must love dogs. 🥰
YEESH. Brutal. But very well-written.
