    Mandatory viewing. Stephen Graham really is in a different league. Props to the DoP too.

  • Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

    Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

    ★★★

    I cannot log this accurately because I always watch this with women who love it. They sing along. They jeer. They fight over the fittest bride and brother. True chaos.

    Your Christmas or Mine 2

    Truly, truly dog shit. Forsakes all the charm of the first for a rushed cash grab sequel. If anything, this makes them seem deeply incompatible rather than the ‘happy’ ending they think it provides. Hate to see it.

    ★★★★

    A beautifully shot and wonderfully nostalgic glimpse into childhood friendship, shared familial grief and how that plays out amongst generations. Sciamma is quickly cementing herself as one of my favourite directors, along with Claire Mathon as one of my favourite cinematographers. Magnifique 👌🏻
