Warning: very spoilery, though I have at least made my peace with Maxim’s hideous mustard suit, which gets not a single mention (my review, of the film and his vile suit, is here): As housekeeper at Manderley, Mrs Danvers hovers between below stairs and upstairs, not fully fitting in with either. Her job means what… Rebecca: fitting up and fitting in Read More
Small plane survival thriller Horizon Line lands next month – check out the new trailer
Horizon Line looks very tense, pretty gripping and quite batshit, though the filmmakers have missed a trick not having a cute dog in there with them too. Two exes are flying to a wedding in a small plane when the pilot dies, and they have to get themselves back to safety – which seems to… Small plane survival thriller Horizon Line lands next month – check out the new trailer Read More
Rebecca (2020) 3.5 stars
A young newlywed arrives at her husband’s imposing family estate on a windswept English coast and finds herself battling the shadow of his first wife.

‘Allo ‘Allo: the film club watches Overlord… 4 stars
Sorry but if you set a WW2 film in a French village or town, Brits of a certain age will see every blond Nazi officer as Herr Flick. Naming the film’s hero Boyce also means that unfortunately many of us will immediately think BOYCIE! (hehehehehehehe). Which is a shame as Boyce is a topnotch hero:… ‘Allo ‘Allo: the film club watches Overlord… Read More

You’re having a lava! The Good-Bad Film Club watches Dante’s Peak 3 stars
This week on the Good-Bad Film Club we watched Dante’s Peak, which – despite me seeing it in the cinema when it came out 23 years ago – I have always believed to be called Volcano.

As we gingerly tiptoe towards the festive season, A Christmas Gift From Bob delivers a trailer
Bob is back! The only presents my cat has ever given me are mangled mice and an annual furball, but Bob is special, and this new movie is his gift to us all this Christmas. I’ll not lie, judging by that trailer it’s not The Godfather. But it does look very sweet – and really,… As we gingerly tiptoe towards the festive season, A Christmas Gift From Bob delivers a trailer Read More

“To know [women did these stunts] 100 and something years ago erases the question of ‘can they do it now?’ Well of course they can do it now. Look at what they did back then.” April Wright Women have been jumping from moving motorbikes onto moving trains for our movie pleasure since the 1910s. April… Director April Wright: “They always say, once a stuntwoman, always a stuntwoman and it’s absolutely true.” Read More

A teaser for Mank? Eeeee!
That’s a British joke, and you need to cut me some slack on this one because when Shag came out I didn’t have a movie website. The teaser trailer for Mank, David Fincher’s highly anticipated drama, has arrived and judging by it, the film doesn’t look at all manky. In fact it looks stunning. Manktastic… A teaser for Mank? Eeeee! Read More
