Who held sway in target states. Employers, workers groups, do not just waltz into an office and make your case. Find out who the senator trusts. Convinced that person to make your case. That is how we win. Does she take no prisoners . That is it exactly. As you have seen, a very strong supporting cast is. I wouldnt have this feeling the same you did. I like the Subject Matter, i liked the cast, like the Director Andi i liked the cast, like the director and i came out thinking it is not as good as it should be. The whole is less tha n good as it should be. The whole is less than the sum of the parts. There is something about it which keeps you at a distance. I never com pletely keeps you at a distance. I never completely believed in these characters. One of the things about it is it has a plot which is full of twists and turns and there is a certain point at which the twists and turns start to defy credibility. That said, it is done with gusto and Jessica Chastain is worth watching. The Subject Matter is interesting and is timely and it ought to be more gripping than it is. Like you, i wanted it to be great. I came out thinking, it is ok, but i wanted it to be more than ok. However, it makes sense, which is more than can be said for alien covenant, which is the next instalment in the ongoing alien franchise. A fan . No. Iama ongoing alien franchise. A fan . No. I am a chicken. There is no way. The first alien film is a horror movie, the second one is a war film. First alien film is a horror movie, the second one is a warfilm. Alien three was a mess. Then the prequels. Prometheus from having dialogue that was different from alien. In alien space truckers, they are talking about things you can relate to. In prometheus they were talking about the nature of god. This is a prometheus sequel, rather than an alien prequel. You have Alien Truckers in space, they get a signal, they arrive at a new planet which looks like a new eden. It is actually a living hell. What they do all the time is to talk about poetry, about art, about life, about god ina poetry, about art, about life, about god in a manner nobody talks. We have a Greatest Hits reruns of the famous moments from alien, but don speeded up in a way that means they make no sense. There is no question that ridley scott is a visual stylist, but he is only as good as his script. With alien covenant, the script is very weak. There is a famous story that when vincent ward was going to do alien three and he wa nted was going to do alien three and he wanted it to be the name of the rows in space, this is the da vinci code in space. As someone who loved the original movie, because it was ruthless, stripped down and i loved this sequel because it is a war movie, this is very much like a massive amount of pontificating and Holding Forth and it makes no sense whatsoever. I know people dont necessarily go to these movies for it to tie up the loose ends, but there were moments when a character says so little of this makes sense, i laughed out loud. You have made me laugh as well. I am a little more hopeful about your third choice. Youre right. Jawbone, it is a boxing movie. I had nothing about boxing movie. I had nothing about boxing other than what i know from the movies. This is a Body Struggling with alcoholism. He is on the south bank in london and he is a drunk. He lives in his mothers flood, he is in danger of being evicted. His life as a mess. He goes to his old gem which is run by ray winston, he gives him a look that tells you everything about the history. Ray wilson says you can train here, but no alcohol and no talk of unlicensed games. He needs money and the next thing he is having a meeting with ian mcshane. |j think i can get you your money. I tell them i have an ex champion with minjee lee is looking for a fight. Jimmy, you were one of the bravest kids i ever saw. The thing i dont know is what kind of nicky are in iiow. Know is what kind of nicky are in now. So, if you take this, its on your back, whatever happens up there, youre on your own. |j your back, whatever happens up there, youre on your own. I know. Im up for it. Right, ill make the phone call. Now, ithought im up for it. Right, ill make the phone call. Now, i thought this was really intriguing. I went in and not knowing much about it other than it was a boxing movie. I thought what it did was it really into the story. You believe in this character, a belief in his dejection, his addiction and his struggle to redeem himself. There is a moment when he first the gym and ray winston looks at him in a way that tells you everything. There are wonderful scenes with Michael Smiley who is a terrific actor. It is not about what they say, it is about what they do not say. Cinematography has changed ina long not say. Cinematography has changed in a long time since raging bull and this pursuit on the Receiving End of punches. I have never been to a boxing match in my life. This had the smack of authenticity and it had heart. It felt it was a story being told by someone who really believed in all of this and it engages you. It makes you care. It is not fa ntastically it makes you care. It is not fantastically original, but it is donein fantastically original, but it is done in a way that seems very honest, very authentic, very moving. As somebody who is not a boxing fan, i found it very gripping. Some Great British talent in there as well. Ray winston walks on water for me. It is an understated role and he plays beautifully. Michael smiley, a terrific actor, really brilliant screen presence, there are terrific actor, really brilliant screen presence, there are moments between him and Johnny Harris in which it is to do with the weight they look at each other. Everything is set in the eyes, in the gesture, in the way they hold their heads. It was a real pleasure to see it, because it was a textured film and it takes an idea we have seen it done. Boxing is in movies a lot because it is a spectacular sport anyway. This adds something to it. In the end it is not a boxing movie, it is about someone overcoming their demons. About overcoming addiction and dealing with alcoholism in a way thatis and dealing with alcoholism in a way that is honest and truthful very engaging. Blessed are you, you have brought me woody allen. I love woody allen. I love the jazz, the new work, the banks, the neurosis. It is all there. The way manhattan looks, it is one of those films you should see on a it is one of those films you should see on a cinema it is one of those films you should see on a cinema screen. It is one of those films you should see on a cinema screen. This is a new see on a cinema screen. This is a new transfer from four k. You think of thejokes, new transfer from four k. You think of the jokes, the characters, but this looks brilliant. The combination of visuals and George Gershwin and from the beginning, He Isa Gershwin and from the beginning, he is a writer trying to describe how he feels about the city. People talk about the classic period woody allen. I am a huge fan of love and death, but the idea of manhattan back on the big screen, i havent seen back on the big screen, i havent seen it rejected since it first came out. 1979 when a canadian.

The wonderful opening shot, the dancing, the sunshine . |j the wonderful opening shot, the dancing, the sunshine . I have seen it on the big screen and the small screen. It on the big screen and the small screen. I have to say, it worked both times for me. In fact, oddly, when i saw on the small screen i was in her comfortable conditions because they were not people talking around me. I really like it. The opening sequence which is so beautiful. I think emma stone is terrific. Some people have complained and said there is not a memorable june in that film. Complained and said there is not a memorablejune in that film. What are they talking about . It made me happy. You leave with a song in your heart. I still love the ending. I would spoil it, but it was spot on. They do it really very well. It is a musical in the same way that manhattan is kind of a musical as well. Sort of. A film with music in it and it is glorious. Thank you very much.

Then we have this temporary ridge of High Pressure and with that, we are starting only decent but for many places with some sunshine. With the breeze from the south west, there will be showers developing into the afternoon and showers in the north west. Some like dry spells in between and showers, away from the north west.
