Have we covered "I swear" yet? It's a powerful film about a Tourettes sufferer growing up in an era when the condition was yet to be recognised.
"Joyride" is also excellent. Set in Ireland, it sees a quirk of fate throw a teenager from a troubled family together with a woman - played by Olivia Colman - who has just given birth to an unwanted child. Poignant yet full of humour. |  |
| "Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1." |

'Northern Soul: Still Burning' is a great documentary that covers the history of that niche but rather wonderful music and dance scene of the 1970s. It centres around the Wigan Casino and its amphetamine fuelled all nighters. There was only one other person in the cinema watching the film and she told me she'd been a Wigan Casino regular.
It's certainly worth seeing if you can find a cinema showing it. |  | | |

Watched Lee Cronin's The Mummy. It's barely a Mummy film and more of an Evil Dead sort of thing. Much like Lee's Evil Dead Rise, this is a pretty unpleasant film. Pretty gruesome and nasty but not all that scary. Not bad but a bit lacking. Liked the ending. |  |

The Sheep Detectives
This got me right in the feels. It's a whodunnit, but not - it's about loss, change, and honesty. Loved it. |  |

I saw Koln 75 today, the film about the classic Keith Jarrett concert, or rather the incredible story about how it came about. The narrative has been embellished for the screen but the crucial facts of the story are correct. I enjoyed it a lot.
The concert was recorded and remains the best-selling solo album in jazz history. It's widely regarded as a masterpiece. | | | |

Backrooms well worth a watch, weird but clever and eerie concept.
Strangely, nobody moved out their seat when the film ended, just sat there whilst the credits played. Even the fella down the front, holding the sack to collect the rubbish, fcked off in the end with an empty bag. |  | | |

Loved Backrooms - disorientating and unusual.
Interested in what people think of Disclosure Day. It felt like Close Encounters of the ET AI Kind to me. A real mashup of Spielberg's hits, although Emily Blunt was excellent. | |

It’s an incredible story. Thanks for reminding us, dmm. I leant my copy to someone about 20 years ago and haven’t seen it since. The Wiki page is a good place for anyone to start if they’re not familiar with the story …

It reminded me of a Stevie Wonder concert I attended in Accra, Ghana many years ago. He was due to appear with a 24-piece orchestra but they all got lost in transit, including the equipment (Stevie was travelling separately).
A ramshackle piano was eventually commandeered from a nearby hotel and the concert finally went ahead at about 2am the following morning. It was a quite extraordinary performance under the circumstances. | | | |

A few more:
Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu - an extended TV episode. If you like the TV show, you'll like this.
Supergirl - I thought is was a perfect example of the problem with modern blockbuster cinema. Too bashy crashy, lacking characters, over FX'd and in need of more heart.
Master of the Universe - see above although the lead was better and Jared Leto was hidden behind a ton of makeup. | |

Obsession. A genuinely scary movie. |
But also genuinely funny. In an insanely uncomfortable, nervous kind of way. Some of the bedroom scenes had people laughing out loud in the cinema whilst hiding behind their hands. Quite an impressive feat. The lead is superb, not sure it would have worked without her commited performance. My wife usually hates horror films but she's been recommending this to everyone .

Two in a week for me.
Firstly Obsession - really dark and twisted psychological horror film with underlying themes about toxic, coercive male behaviour. Great battles between where the control and power lies between the two protagonists in a very scary scenario. Some real jump out of seat moments... highly recommend.
Second - The Christophers - The central performance from Ian Mckellen is superb, ably supported by Michaela Coel, who is a little stiff in parts but rises to the challenge. Both comedic and moving, a great storyline about longing and a love story mixed with art. Really enjoyed it. |  | | |
