Apologies if this has already been mentioned. I’ve never seen anything like this before, couldn’t even begin to describe what kind of show it is, it doesn’t conform to any existing format. Watched it all in one sitting, totally in awe of it.
How to sell drugs online (fast) - chugs along a decent trot and good fun.
Sirens - top cast and script slightly underwhelming ending
Dept Q - 3 in and decent, good central characters, plus Mark Bonnar doing his moody lawyer thing to perfection.
Recently watched:
Companion - very silly, not good
Strange Darling - missed the mark for me, a bit unforgettable
Warfare - felt too pro-war but i guess was okay in terms of film-making? As an Alex Garland fan I was disappointed though
I do have Perfect Days and Love Lies Bleeding lined up so hopefully I’ll get a win soon ![]()
Agree about Sirens, was a bit sceptical going into it but it got better and better and the cast was great, particularly the 2 leads playing the sisters but the ending was a let down, felt rushed and inconsistent with the characters and world they’d built up in the previous episodes.
Got Dept Q lined up.
Hope you love Perfect Days as much as we did.
Ah thanks for the tip
Hilarious and weird. Like comedy Paul Auster or something.
I loved warfare… didn’t get pro war vibes though… the opposite if anything. Entire exercise seemed to be utter futility
Went to this on Friday. Incredible. https://modballet.com/
They did a This Cultural Life episode with Pete Townsend to mark it, which was a fascinating listen
A very strange and interesting man for a pop star
I was looking at that online. Couldn’t get past the fact the cast were all dressed in the least Mod looking two button suits and awful shoes.
Less Bar Italia, more All Bar One ![]()
Well, Paul Smith did the costume design but you really can’t see those details from a distance. The dance and set design are great. I know they had to add bits to the suits to allow the movement required.
watched “the rubber keyed wonder” documentary about the ZX Spectrum last night. great documentary, pretty in depth but if you were around when they came out its pretty evocative. half way through the doc, this comes on - is it balearic? not quite, but how many games do you remember?
Horace Goes Skiing, JetPac, JetSet Willy, Manic Miner & Chuckie Egg were my faves
I absolutely loved my spectrum as a kid. Jet Set Willy and way of the exploding fist were two of my faves!
Ha ha ha, reminds me of 8 bit Pink Floyd videos years ago!
Been a bit slow on this one, out for a while:
Very funny doc > Take.One.A.Documentary.Film.About.Swedish.House.Mafia
Thanks for the recommendation, it’s pretty hilarious
