[Aladdin]

Documentary about the Holy Cross dispute in Ardoyne in 2001.
Unbelievable at the time...the viciousness of the loyalists abusing little children going to school.

Farrow & Ball; inside the posh paint factory. Interesting to see how paint is made but the whole thing is simply the epitomy of pretentiousness. It's sickly sweet. It makes people look like they are not living in a home but an ideal home catelogue.

Nigel Kennedy on BBC4.

Great footage from his youth. He was only 17 when he went to NY to study.
Lovely scenes of him busking.

And more recent Proms appearances


Pure genius and a lovely merry soul.

The Third Man

 

[Aladdin]

The great reindeer migration on BBCfour.

2 hours following the Sami and reindeer.
Saw the FIVE hour version before.

It's great.
Just loads of snow and reindeer
No commentary.
No music.
Just the sound of the reindeer and the bells on them. Some few words from the Sami about what they're doing.

Lovely people...

Love this film... but RTE gave a warning beforehand.....something about it being from a different time and could be offensive.
