The best depiction of society I've seen in a while. It doesn't try to explain why things have happened in history but demonstrates the world we are building (we as the individuals that are refusing to speak up) and I can't stress enough how powerful and shocking this show is!! Every aspect of the story comes from a place of truth, it is filled with moments that cut so deep I was left speechless. The alarming accuracy with which our…

Normal People 2020
A huge success as an adaption of one of my favourite books, I wasn't sure how the intensity of their relationship and character's emotion would transpose to screen but they absolutely nailed it.

The Hateful Eight 2015
I love that Tarantino made this film with the future concept that it would take the stage, he saw the potential each character had to be explored by a series of different actors. I can't wait for this show to hit the west end one day, let me tell you. Combining my love for Agatha Christie and yet the dark twist of Tarantino, this film is a mystery and a journey. Slow at first but quickly gains momentum and is something very special.

The Breakfast Club 1985
Hitting the nail on the head with it's portrayal of teenage stereotypes and the challenges they face. A very interesting insight into the issues faced by a range of people but most interesting for me was the lack of knowledge each had for their fellow pupils. Each faced struggles they deemed terrible, however it was only after discussion did they realise the hardships others may face. A film with a good heart and a timeless lesson.
