Horrible histories, is this something i should take my nieces to . Horrible histories was a boon for parents and families and something that everyone could watch and enjoy. It had Great Success on tv, where it has more of a sketch format, going from to romans and victorians and the greeks and the 1940s and wartime. This is them just doing one thing, rotten romans, where they make the transition to the big screen and concentrate on one aspect. It hasnt got the original cast, so if you are a fan of them, theyre not really in this. Some make cameos, but they have got a bit starry for this, with a lot of famous faces. Every kid studies roman britain, so the Young Emperor nero, played by craig roberts, dominated by his mum, kim cattrall shes not in the original she sends atticus, atti, off to the wilds of the of the empire, the untamable stain of the empire, britain, where boudica is rousing the troops to rebellion and inspiring young women all over the place to take up arms, much to the disappointment of their fathers. Here, orla, played by emelia jones, has captured atti and nick frost is not happy about it. Now, who says im not ready to be a warrior . What have you done . Taken a roman prisoner. All on my own. Told you i could do it. Youre just going to have to take him back. What . I thought youd be pleased. You cant keep a prisoner, its hard work you have to feed it, you have to exercise it. Whos going to clean up after him . I am here, you know. Hes my prisoner, i found him, i want to keep him. 0k, fine. Youll get bored soon enough and then someone will have to get rid of him. Theres no pleasing some people. Good fun . I like it. What i like is that were so used to pixar films that are perfect, honed, thejokes are perfect, everything is perfection. And this one looks like its been shot in the local park. I like that ropiness, theres an ad hoc nature to it a nice latin phrase there are lots of funny gags, alexander armstrong, nick frost, people making cameo performances, derekjacobi. High vs all round derekjacobi being in is funny to me that gets the parents in. The current war, which i kind of feel should be good . Look at the cast Benedict Cumberbatch as thomas edison, Michael Shannon playing george westinghouse. Youre saying, who are these two . Its billed as a battle for the future of america, whether you will use alternating current or direct current to light up america. Thats exciting, isnt it . It should be it was quite important. It was. It feels like vhs versus betamax, lycos versus google, the way big brands battle now, i suppose thats what was supposed to be interesting about it. Is there a but coming . I didnt really know why. There was light bulb moments all round, and the person who greenlit this im going to do some lighting puns theres no heart, you dont know what theyre arguing about. There is the invention of the electric chair and neither want to be associated with that so there is a moral element. There is no jeopardy involved, and you wonder why, with this cast, tom holland, nicholas hoult, matthew macfadyen. Again, it should be good, but. But the current war, its a turn off. End of puns your third choice . Just as its holiday time, lets go to greece, the island of hydra. Marianne is a beautiful woman, leonard is leonard cohen, one of the most famous, depressing songwriters of the 1960s. This is when they met on the greek island of hydra in the 1960s. It was taken over by poets and artists and hippies and there was lots of free love. Its kind of love island in the 60s, but with people who can actually read. Into this comes the documentary maker nick broomfield, who is rather famous with his t shirt and jeans and boom mic and recording equipment. He asserts himself into the story in a way hes never done before, he becomes mariannes lover. Here is broomfield recalling those heady days of the 60s. I was mesmerised by the islands beauty, and had never before met so many golden, sun kissed people of either sex, having so much fun together. It felt like anything was possible. Marianne gave me my very first acid trip, which she said had come from a friend of leonards in london, called malcolm. And she took these pictures of me the morning after. I had no intention of leaving, but then one of mariannes other lovers unexpectedly showed up on the island, and i found myself hastily boarding the next boat back to athens. Reference to other lovers gives you a sense of the time and what was going on. Free love. Theres a moment in this that you think, gosh, that sounds great i wish they could be attained, but it obviously cant sustain itself. This was part of the hippy trail, so there is too much, an excess of poetry and drugs and lying around and sun, sea and sex, you cant sustain it. They had this love affair, marianne and leonard, that sustained for 56 years. He became a rock star and was rather promiscuous around the world, leaving marianne rather hurt, but they had this love story and it kept coming back. I think its rather brilliant, a film that makes you remember those fleeting love stories. What it is about love that endures. They had a pure love, even though it was caught up in many different things, there was a gorgeousness to this, an idyll that has preserved. It is a Holiday Romance that lasted almost a lifetime. It looks very beautiful, do you need to like his music, need to be interested in him as a musician, or is that secondary . Its secondary. You hear a bit about leonard cohen, i dont know much about him myself, but it is more about her. You insert yourself into the story and i remember people who were influential on me, i remember moments in my own life, turning points, thats what its about. I think its one of the best films of the year and one of the best that nick broomfields ever made. The most emotional, i was welling up at the end of it. A love story in the form of a documentary. And another love story is the best out this week, the best for you . It is such a good british film, doesnt even look like a british film, it looks french it has a european sexiness and freedom to it and confronts issues. Its about the difficulties of maintaining love through the travails of trying to proceed through the travails of health. The actor is about to be Prince Charles in the crown, so if you want to know what Prince Charles looks like without any clothes on, you have to watch only you. It is directed by a woman who brings an excellent touch to her very first film. If you can find it, please do. Very beautiful, a simple film and lovely. And a quick thought about what we should be streaming . A film that has just dropped on netflix everywhere else, theyre released, netflix, theyre dropped. It is the great hack, about the harvesting of our data. They used these to create the political shocks of our time, trump and brexit. Cambridge analytica come under the microscope here, other whistle blowers are featured. You seethe with the injustice of it, because all of us have been played by the state to harvest and that has been going on. Watch if you dare, perhaps . Theres nothing much you can do about it, your data is probably being harvested as you watch it on netflix thank you very much, jason, see you next week. Enjoy your cinema going, bye bye.
