Button Moon early on
Is that the one with 'you can do it duffy moon' in it? Was I mishearing? Does it exist as a line?

Paha Maa - Frozen Land A perfect study into how films should really be made.
The story starts off with a teacher losing his job which then connects to a forged 500 Euro note which then connects and weaves between various characters and situations. Excellent acting and photography in a bleak Finnish landscape. Lo and behold the film ends where it started.
Five little stars.

Fish Tank - BBC production of a troubled 15 year old girl growing up on a London estates.
Bloody accurate portrayal and I found myself hooked on it's realism. I don't understand how this film slipped under me radar while the inferior (and OTT), American-made Precious gets all the awards.
I recommend this but it maybe too realistic for some.

I watched this yesterday on box office. I enjoyed it but I wasn't sure I would as the reviews weren't great. It wasn't as schmaltzy as I was expecting.
I also watched 500 days of Summer yesterday and liked that too.
I could completely relate to how devastated Tom felt when he realised it wasn't that Summer didn't believe in love it's just that she didn't love him. Gutting.

Yes - but throughout the entire film she did say it would lead to nothing and Tom didn't seem (want) to accept, and tried way too hard in trying to change her mind. I think such behaviour is universal and we all, at some point have experienced this.

Been there too. I guess you want to believe that you can be the one to change that.
the invention of lying
7/10 got silly at the end and faded somewhat with the storyline.
Interesting premise though.

I watched the final episode last night, and enjoyed it muchly, although there was about 5 minutes at one point where it was just Vik looking around doing the only expression he is capable of, bit like this
What was the reveal on his name? That his first name is Holland? I saw that in an episode in series 3 I think.
Some good shit, that was

Interesting premise that could have been the set up for so much more. Annoyingly it followed a very well trodden american comedy drama romance line. Strange message considering Ricky was only after the woman based on her looks. I assume there was supposed to be more bonding somewhere along the line, but in the film she is cold and rude to him and doesn't want to know.
That flash back with his mate and the chap from eastenders in showed that it could have been a quite cool series of gag situations. Instead we got a love and religion story.
Last night, Stop Making Sense. (-Again.)
I know it was assembled from more than one performance, but it's still one of the best concert films ever; it's so well-paced, the way it builds from nothing to the full line-up. A real feel-good film, no filler tracks at all, and the P-Funk is right through it like a stick of rock.
(-And what energy everybody seems to have, what stamina!...
)
I remember seeing this at the cinema when it was originally released. Most of the audience were out of their seats (-and heads, tbh) dancing along, way before it ended...

My Neighbours the Yamadas...Studio Ghibli but not the usual hi colour spectacular animation etc, much more basic and more a collection of shorts. A few laughs but nothing to make a fuss over.
18 with a bullet...documentary in 3 parts about the 18 gang in El Salvador, formed by US deportees. Probably the most utterly futile gang film I've ever seen. First part starts with 16 year old Charlie who is the local 18 boss. Second focusses on an older founder member, Slappy who wants to leave the life behind but can't manage to put his family before his crack addiction and killing habit. Third film again has an elder member of the gang in prison while his Mrs struggles with the kids on the out. There seems to be no point to the gang other than their hatred of their rivals MS, completely fucked up.

Also (-this afternoon, on the i-player, not a DVD), the latest episode of Mad Men.
I really do enjoy watching this programme so much.
I just got the pilot of Mad Men gonna check it out today.
It's all slick surface at first, but after a few episodes, you begin to see people's masks slipping...
Enjoy

Anvil. Totally ace. Really funny, occasionally sad and actually heart-warming, too. Great film. I'd like to know how they're doing since the film. Should've got them a few more bookings at least, you'd hope.
ETA: Wiki says they headlined one of the stages at Download and have played with Slash and people since the film. Ace.

Not a bad wee film as it goes, Jim Broadbent needs to bone up on his Dub accent mind. It's 'shoite' not 'shite'.
