Loads of Criterions on sale at HMV. Not the one I really wanted, typically. Bit the bullet and splashed out. I’ve been wanting to see this for years and years.

If you can catch Matthew Rhys playing Burton in…well…’Playing Burton’, grab the opportunity with both hands. All of Burton’s fire, mischief and remorse alive on the stage. Great night out at Neuadd William Aston in Wrexham.

I’ve always had a special dislike of the Spy Who Loved Me poster. A confusing block of big bold colours with all the details lost within it.

It’s a key horror moment for me: this photo was in Denis Gifford’s Horror Movies book and was the first film image to scare me to the point of incontinence. For that, I’ll always have a special place in my heart for The Plague of The Zombies.

Oh what a joyous film. A sweet, beautifully crafted antidote to all that ails you. I hope they rain BAFTAs upon it.

‘Let’s say…you’re a Lady.’ Currently watching for the first time in years. So, so good. I do miss Bob Hoskins.

I discovered today that Jimmy Tarbuck once had a hit single written by Mick Jagger & Keith Richards featuring Jimmy Page on guitar. This has pleased me.

Currently watching…. Taken back to the opening night, watching with friends, and half way through we all gave each other that look. The one where we all realised we’ll be bragging to our kids that we watched THIS on the day it came out.

The Deadly Affair (1967). Lumet back in the UK marshalling a strong cast on fine form. James Mason, Harry Andrews and Kenneth Haigh make for a memorable trio, and Simone Signoret is unforgettable. Plot dithers a little, but so lovely to see 60s London on vivid display.
