Guess this film has been mentioned earlier in the thread.But anyway watched Hunt For The Wilder-people last night with my eldest son.It was very much better than I was expecting it to be-great shots of NZ and Julian Dennison very funny right from the get-go.Tickled pink we were.Sort of sad too in an off-beat way.

I wasn't planning on staying up late but I started watching Copenhagen and had to finish it. Really enjoyed it. I only picked it because I don't watch Game of Thrones and I wanted to see what Gethin Anthony is like 
Clouds of Sils Maria.

Simple fun, no more, no less.

A Boy and His Dog
post apocalyptic film from 1975, the boy has a telepathic bond with the dog. Its full of odd imagery, strangeness and doesn't fall into any of the standard patterns for this sort of thing. 6/10

It's not a bad film, but really nothing like the (quite excellent) short story.

Fifth episode of Kenneth Clark's Civilisation.
This one deals with Pope Julius II, Michelangelo, David, the Sistine Chapel and the works of Raphael.
There is nothing like this today. I don't know what professional art historians made of it at the time, or would make of it today, but it definitely repays the investment of time in it.

Still unsurpassed. That criticism is valid, but for what it is there's not much to touch it. Would have loved it if he'd then done the same for West Africa, China, the Indian sub-continent etc.

Unconditional - on iplayer - all filmed in the north east including my old neighbourhood. I thought it was going to be a sweet film about a trans teenager, but it was a actually about a really creepy abusive relationship. Well acted, but not the chilled friday night lgbt positive film i was after!
The Octagon
Stop...Hammertime
Strangely enough I watched it last night and thought it was still great, I'd forgotten a lot of the smaller jokes / sight gags.
Definitely winced at the language a few times to be fair, but that almost feels like part of the experience of watching the film.

Topkapi.
Caper flick from 1964, directed by Jules Dassin from an Eric Ambler novel. Hapless small-time hustler Peter Ustinov is drawn into a plot to steal a priceless, jewel-encrusted dagger from the Topkapi museum in Istanbul.
A bit of fun, but the scenes where PU falls into the hands of the Turkish security organs carry a real sense of menace.

I started Fringe. Started it from two episodes before season 2 as I read the first parts of series 1 are sub-par x filesish monster of the week guff and I'm not feeling that. So far so good. Lt Daniels from The Wire is in it.

I started Gotham - suprisingly good for what it is. Best thing is the lad playing the young Gordon, closely followed by the proletarian Alfred. Not quite as retro as I was expecting, though.

I bailed around season 2 although there are some excellent performances by 'Oswald Cobblepot' the future Penguin and Fish Mooney.
See as you watch if you spot when the 'I have no idea what to do with barbera gorden' writing kicks in. Think its srs 2.

The guy who plays the Mayor is good - he normally plays hapless shmucks. The Falcone actor is very familiar, but I can't place him.

Ah of course, Rawls from the Wire.
The Barksdale lawyer - was he the one who tried to tell off Omar in court for being a bandit, only to have Omar say "same as you, man"?

I thought it was absolutely terrific. Have you seen the TV show Legion yet?
