then we ve got fadia s tree, which is a documentary about a palestinian refugee, by the artist sarah beddington. and then, we ve got maisie, which is a documentary about britain s oldest performing drag queen. it s a fantastic mixture let s start with brad pitt, though. we ve got to start with brad pitt. i m a big fan, i think he s terrific in almost everything i ve seen him in, to be honest. he s great in bullet train as i said, it s based on a novel, ajapanese novel, and it s directed by david leitch, who actually used to be brad pitt s stunt double. which is quite an interesting turnaround. 0h, interesting! and since then, he s directed atomic blonde, deadpool 2. i think fans of the tones of those kind of films might want to check this film out. it s set in tokyo on a bullet train with an international cast. brad pitt plays ladybug, who is a hit man who s hired to do what s meant to be a simplejob go onto the train, get a briefcase, come off the train, deliver it to the right
