Kapringen/A Hijacking - excellently made film about somali pirates hijacking a danish vessel returning from Mumbai. Not an action film. More a sort of step by step reconstruction like the Hamburg Cell or Bloody Sunday. Makes it abundantly clear through a clever series of mirroring scenes that the larger pirates here are the shipping capitalists. Recommended.

Merry Xmas!
Bamako - Mali drama, the IMF & World Bank on trial as life and love goes on. An old man sings a song of lament and a gun goes missing.
Rosemary's Baby - Pixie like Mia Farrow is impregnated by chiselled John Cassavetes. Or the devil. Or not.

I enjoyed it. I was a bit surprised when I watched it as the 'hype' portrayed it as more of an action movie, which it isn't.

Kenneth Mcpherson's 1930 "Borderline" about an adulterous inter-racial love triangle set in a Swiss village. Pretty remarkable for it's time, looks more like a silent version of a 50s kitchen sink drama. The 2006 version's Courtney Pine soundtrack was a decent addition.

A Serious Man, a nicely odd bit of Coen Brothers I missed first time round. Not their best but then their best is pretty much as good as it gets for me. I'm bracing myself for Pain And Gain tonight. Any film that Mark Kermode describes as 'like swimming through a river of effluent' has to be worth a watch.

Though I suspect he was a little bit over-excited.

The Undefeated - one of a series of terrible post collapse of the USSR films made by Oles Yanchuk to glorify Bandera,Ukrainian Military Organization, the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (so basically the whole Ukrainian far-right military traditions - underground or otherwise from the early 20s to the mids 50s) - or as he claimed, put the record straight on the record of the former and challenge the calumny that western ukrainians had suffered under Russian rule. All of these films are awful historical untruths, appallingly made and embarrassingly acted and basically just propaganda. This one is about the war-time and then post-war guerrilla activity of Roman Shukhevych. His role in massacres of jews, poles and others, his pre-war terrorist atrocities are not mentioned (well assassination of a pole in peacetime designed to provoke a pogrom is confusingly thrown in with no explanation in the middle of another scene) and it flatly lies that he was captured in 1950 and continued struggling within soviet prisons until 1980 - rather than the reality of him being killed in 1950.
A very good film on a similar-ish subject is Shadows of a Hot Summer which concerns a banderovici gang taking over a farm on their way to try and break into Austria from Czechoslovakia.

Roman's role in this was covered in two minutes and was turned into one of defying the nazis. Rather than commanding a battalion for them. Really.
Cough. Have you fucking seen pearl harbour?
Anyway. Can anyone remember the name of the flick about the first wave of immigrants from the Caribbean? Based on a novel... A bit of a love story.
