I’ve probably said it’s In the Mood for Love before, but The Wind that Shakes the Barley is a perfect film for me. A messy, complex portrayal of...
Some of my favourites in no real order. Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung in In the Mood for Love. Casting the two most beautiful actors and then...
Watched The Wizard of Oz tonight. I haven't knowingly watched this before, but it's the sort of film that I feel like I know anyway, with pretty...
I watched Fritz Lang's M tonight. Easy to see the influence this had on a lot of procedural / crime thrillers ever since. Everyone's a suspect...
Is there a difference in this discussion between “classics” that I would say means that they’re significantly influential and important within...
I watched the OG King Kong. It's one of those films that you know so well that can't really be sure if you've seen it or not. Just part of pop...

If anybody likes this band and doesn’t have tickets to their UK Stadium shows, their Cardiff show is obviously well undersold because Ticketmaster...
Watched Murnau's Sunrise today. Really enjoyed it. It blends fantasy in with the narrative in a really great way throughout. A few great moments...
Watched a film from 1976 called The Snake Prince tonight. It's really something special here, a psychedelic, funky, proggy Wuxia musical. It has...
