The Holiday really does ask the question: How much can we get away with if we just stuff this movie with beautiful people being flirty and cute? Because oh my this film does drag and feels like two and a half films stuffed into one.

It's always a pleasure to watch an actor who has just got 'it' and James Caan in Thief has that in spades.

Josh O’Connor calls THE LAST JEDI “so beautiful.”
“The end of that movie - how anyone could be a Jedi... I just remember seeing that movie in the cinemas and I wept of that last image with the boy. It’s just one of the most iconic images in cinema”

The fights are fun and colourful, the Crazy 88 fight is a genuinely phenomenal sequence, and Uma Thurman shines; but I came away from Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair with a palpable feeling of it just being fine and honestly might by the lowest I would rank of Tarantino's work.

So that moment when the duvet is pulled away at the end of Raw (2016) got me good. A genuine gasp escaped my lungs.

Blimey I'm loving Blue Prince. There are mysteries within mysteries and I'm still working things out and exploring possibilities of room combos, dates and other clues.

I barely use Spotify but I can guarantee you that the soundtrack album for Sinners will have been my most listened to album.

I have wanted to watch Mad God for a good while. Now that I have watched it I can resolutely say that was brilliant. The craft of it alone is admirable with how much time Phil Tippett has given to it.

Got to Room 46 in Blue Prince. It's technically the end but there are so many unanswered threads that I will be jumping back in soon enough, trying to piece together the jumble of notes and numbers I have taken.

The Mockingbird is a delightful little cinema and a great setting to watch Wake Up Dead Man.
It's once again an excellent outing and Josh O'Connor gives the best performance of anyone from the current Knives Out movies.

Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're goin' to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his
Chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag

There are plenty of links between the anti-trans “women’s rights” movement & anti-feminist conservatism. And opposing abortion is a logical conclusion for a movement that says no, you should not have agency over your own body; no, you do not know best about yourself; no, you have no choice.
No way I’m sharing Stock’s UnHerd article. But I am going to point to this bit which amply demonstrates the anti-trans=>anti-women’s rights pipeline. “Abortions should only be done for a highly restricted set of reasons. They should not be just nodded through for any reason a pregnant woman likes.”
