Train Dreams: An elegiac portrait of a man caught (stuck?) in the maelstrom of an ever-changing world and industry even as his life struggles to move on through tragedies, shaped by connections with people who pass through his life fleetingly or with meaning. Just beautiful. One of the year’s best.

French commentator Yoann Riou reacting to Scotland’s win against Denmark is beautiful ❤️

Good Boy has been added to Shudder today and it’s an unsettling, deeply melancholy little tale (tail?) about mortality with one of my favourite screen performances from a dog.

“Don’t play with the fear of failure, try to play with the anticipation of success.”

I’ve had my issues with Clarke and the way he has sometimes set up Scotland in games they should win at a canter but fair fucks to the big man. Humble enough to refuse credit for World Cup qualification 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

But also, guessing this guy had a tenner on Scotland winning 3-2 🤣

The goal felt around the nation.

If you could bottle this joy the world would be a better place.

Two days later and I still smile at every video of the celebrations.

There’s so much about the live action Moana trailer that just feels off and Jamaal absolutely nails the biggest issue - it’s lazy and Disney is giving up on interesting storytelling/filmmaking

Robbo talking about how Diogo Jota was in his thoughts all day yesterday reminds you of the human side to these guys. Yes, they may earn millions for doing something they love, but they grieve like the rest of us. It was a monumental achievement last night & Jota will have been smiling for his pal 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The commentary team when Kenny McLean hit it from inside his own half in the 97th minute 🤣🤣🤣

Absolutely here for a pride of lions being utterly beguiled by a guy playing guitar and singing to them, complete with obligatory big stretch 🥺

Limbs everywhere in the Ireland end 🙌🏻 what a finish to the game. Chuffed for them. Now, Scotland, don’t let us down on Tuesday. Secure top spot.

Genuinely almost in tears at this stunning piece of photography ☀️❤️

Love it. Cracking throwback to the strip they wore in the Rudi Völler days

Didn’t realise you could laugh in French 🤣

This kid’s laugh comes from the depths of her soul and it’s glorious!

Absolutely howling at this track a dad left his daughter on a random and bizarre mix tape he made for her before he died.

Come for the vocals; stay for the final line 🤣 what a wonderful gift to leave her and what a wholesome reaction!
