does look immense, cant wait to see it. been struggling to find time for the flicks of late...

If you didn't see this programme, 'Marvellous' starring Toby Jones then do. Honestly it was superb, despite the fact that even I didn't spot myself. Funny, sad, uplifting and a testimony that people are, in general, naturally kind. Ninety minutes well spent, I promise you.

It was tremendous despite the rather wooden crowd.

Toby Jones was marvellous. I'm surprised you weren't his stunt double in the clowning scenes.

The screenplay was by the guy who did 'Eric And Ernie' a few years ago. That was very good too.

Lots of brilliant moments. My favourite:

Neil: Can you drop me off?
Bishop: It's not really on my way.
Neil: It is if you go that way.

Toby Jones gives a masterclass in character acting - no caricature or superficial impersonation; respects the person, inhabits the role.

Yesterday we watched (from LF) Le Quattro Volte (The Four Turns).

Based on the four 'turns' of Pythagoras: the human realm, the animal realm, the plant realm and the mineral realm, (Wikipedia is wonderful!) the movie offers us the story of an old, old, dying gosatherd; the birth to death of a young goat; the fate of a tree as it becomes the crucifix for the village Easter; and the eventual turning of the tree into charcoal. It is set in a 21st century, remote Southern Italian village, that seems to be living in a kind of eternal material and spiritual poverty.

In this film there is absolutely no drama. Things happen, sequentially. Of little consequence.

If you are a fan of dialogue free, slow, slow Italian arthouse cinema, then watching this will make you the happiest person in the world.

We watched it through all of its two hours. There was no need for subtitles. No one speaks anyway.

Last night I had the privilege of watching on one of my local television stations those silly Monty Python people in some sort of MP review. I don't know when the performance took place but all five of the main cast were there. As I haven't seen any of their work for yonks it was a most pleasurable hour and a half spent in a land totally divorced from reality.

I imagine it's one of the shows that they did at the O2 recently over here.

Cineworld this afternoon - £6 for seniors... We saw The Hundred Foot Journey with Helen Mirren looking like she'd had a second facelift, in an amiable comedy-drama, well meaning but sentimental and messy around the edges.

In a small town in French mountains there is a one star michelin Restaurant. An Indian family, generations of cooking behind them, escape the British weather and move into a former restaurant opposite thgem - 100 feet away. And open up a Mumbai restaurant.

The son, Hassan, has been taught by his now-dead mother that cooking is about understanding the soul. (LK could perhaps confirm this is the case). So we have the French classics versus soulfull Asian food, the traditional versus the invader, two cuisines, two cultures - and war breaks out.

It all ends happily, cuisines and cultures can coexist and help each other to change and adjust.

Two hours spent pretty well as a gentle little story unfolds.

Did anyone watch? was awesome! last year one guy did a back flip over a 72ft canyon gap - last night they nearly all did! incredible scenery, some unreal tricks, big air, ridiculous speed, and bone crunching stacks! proper entertainment... yet the masses prefer to watch some benders in lycra pedalling round France!?

The location was aptly named for that, I see.


In other news, Inherent Vice trailer.

[Beefheart]

Big PT Anderson fan, so I'm sure it'll be great, but the trailer didn't really get me excited.

[Bruce Rioja]

Just watched Silver Linings Playbook. Sorry guys but I really don't share your enthusiasm for this. Thought it was alright, but that's about it. Fairly standard Yank romcom with a cliched ending that was rather cringeworthy.

A couple of chuckles, but that was about it for me.

Well, I'd nowt better to do on a Tuesday evening, I suppose.

[General Mannerheim]

yeah but she's so fit
