I think it is good horror
If you are easily scared by this sort of thing (and enjoy it) then should watch this series. Ended well too.
Great wasnt it? Watched the lot over a few days last week and was captivated, which isnt often with me and US dramas.
I read the first quarter of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and fell asleep. So if the film is worse than the book, which it always is, then I'm definitely passing on this one.

It's a steaming pile of pile of self-pitying crap.
My telly box has been upgraded by Virgin after the last one went pop, and now we have all kinds of telly goodness to watch! Watched four episodes of Boys from the Blackstuff recently. Me and the fella, sat snivelling, in between going 'ooo Crosville buses...oooolook at that wasteland, you just don't get wasteland like that anymore it's all built on nowadays' etc
Fucking brilliant telly - still just as relevant now
Cried like a motherfucker again over Chrissy's episode

Watched Jamón Jamón t'other night, it was actually better than I was expecting, some really imaginative and hilarious scenes at points, done in quite a pisstaking way of all the stereotypes. Like most 'upbeat' supposed Spanish comedies though, it had a fair bit of tragedy and sadness going on as well.
Yes i did phwoaaa at the young Penelope Cruz too, she's gorgeous in it!

i've never got round to watching it, even though it was on at the 11pm Friday late show of my local cinema all the time. everyone i hated at school liked pink floyd, so i figured it'd be shit.

I watched Barney's Version, which was OK if nothing special. Obviously an adaptation of a long novel as it felt a bit unwieldy squashed two hours. Paul Giamatti was good in the lead role, but Dustin Hoffman steals the film from him in a supporting role as his dad and Rosamund Pike lights up every film she appears in. I'll happily watch anything she appears in.

The In Kraut
Lucky Star, silent film by Frank Borzage. Probably quite an unusual film then as disability wasn't seriously addressed much in films in the 20s. It's about a romance between a young woman and a man paralysed from the waist down by a war injury. The farm set built in the studio is quite beautiful. Shame about the "love makes him walk again" ending, you wouldn't get away with that now.

King Of Insides
Overlord - 70s B&W film about a young english man being enlisted and trained for the army during the months before the WWII D-Day landings. It's intercut with some great archive footage from the period (I think the film was made in conjunction with The Imperial War Museum). The best war film I've seen for a while.

The In Kraut
The World's Greatest Dad. The title and the fact that this stars Robin Williams probably put off a lot of people, but this is no Patch Addams. Middle aged teacher's obnoxious teenage son dies in a masturbation accident. His father frames it as a suicide and exploits the role of a grieving parent to boost his own popularity. Runs out of steam in the last third, but quite funny in places.

So many particulars. So many questions.

The "if" has been confirmed, but not the "when".

Autoluminescent: Rowland S. Howard - Documentary on the guitarist made just before/after he died. I really liked it but then I'm a big fan, Teenage Snuff Film is just a great album. The film isn't anything spectacular but it's been put together well done and has some good interviews.

i watched The Ipcress file and the original Italian job back to back . Thorughly enjoyed both, really forgot how good they were . Even watched the extra bits of interviews on the dvds which were allso very illuminating . Apparently Nichol Williamson was the original choice for the role of Bridger , but Noel Coward was the directors Godfather .
not a lot of people know that .

You think? She's not tiny IRL. Horses for courses I reckon.

shed look just dandy on the end of my knob
Not really a fan of Italian Job, but I love the 60's Harry Palmer movies.
and if she was reeeeally tiny... she might make your nob look almost normal-sized.

Yeah indeed, but the funnier scene is with Javier Bardem licking them...
"te gusta?"
"encanta su sabor!"
"y a que saben?"
"jamón... tortilla patatas.. mmm... cebolla... ajo!"

"like 'em?"
"I love your taste
"what do they taste like?
"ham... potato omlette... onion... garlic!"
Sadly it is not on youtube

Im going to have to track down a cheap copy of funeral in berlin from somewhere now .
I really enjoyed the Italian job though this time round much more than when i watched it years ago , really well conceived and shot . Some great sarcastic character acting too . Especially with the likes of camp Freddie . All put together really tightly too .
I especiallly loved that opening scene with Matt Munro singing " Days like these"
