Film
Joaquin Phoenix in Inherent Vice.
It’s easier to say what Inherent Vice isn’t than what it is. |
 Poet John Barlow reflects on ills of society through the lens of Hollywood schmaltz. |
Jack O'Connell in Unbroken.
Angelina Jolie’s film is a chronicle of fear and pain. |
Amy Adams in Big Eyes.
Don’t get the wrong idea when I tell you that Big Eyes is the new film from Tim Burton… |
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
What’s playing in local cinemas this week. |
Lilla Crawford in Into the Woods.
This Into the Woods is most likely to play best for the choir of the already converted. |
Keira Knightley, Matthew Beard, Matthew Goode, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Allen Leech in The Imitation Game.
A skillful and entertaining telling of the life of codebreaking mathematician Alan Turing. |
Mark Wahlberg in The Gambler.
It’s unlikely that many people buying tickets for this will have seen the 1974 film on which it is based. Which is just as well. |
