Sportsday is in about 12 minutes but first the film review with mark kemode. Hello and welcome to the film review, with me, mark kermode, rounding up the best new movies available for viewing in the home while we look forward to cinemas reopening in may. One of the most high profile releases of the week is ammonite, the second feature from writer director francis lee. Like his brilliant debut gods own country, this is another Love Story Set against the backdrop of a bracing british locale in this case, the sea battered coast of lyme regis. Waves crashing. Mary . Look whats fallen down. The rock thing. Its too big. Impossible to move. Kate winslet plays the 19th century palaeontologist mary anning, whose class and gender have kept her outside of the snobby geological establishment. Saoirse ronan is charlotte murchison, a young woman plagued with melancholia, whose Husband Persuades Mary to take her in and help her to recuperate. My husband. Your husband left you. But first, charlotte seems too fragile for the hard knock� s lifestyle of searching for Hidden Treasures on the beach, but shes made of sturdier stuff, and soon, her and mary become friends and then lovers. Lees decision to imagine an intimacy between two real life characters has ruffled some feathers, to which the film maker responded by stating its a forceful point perfectly made, but in fact, its issues of class and gender, rather than sexual orientation, that seem to lie at the heart of lees film. Its in the british museum, with its fancy, made up name, ichthyosaurus. While Ralph Fiennes autodidactic archaeologist basil brown was snubbed by the snobbiest establishment in the dig, winslet� s anning faces the Double Whammy of being both largely self taught and a woman. This, at a time when the Geological Society of london, for example, was a men only enclave. More problematic, i think, is the chilly tone of the film, which reminded me somewhat of the austere mood of michael winterbottoms jude, an early critical triumph for kate winslet. Both films have much to admire artistically, but also left me rather cold. You can find ammonite on a wide range of digital platforms. Sticking with british films, The Banishing is a 305 set Haunted House chiller from christopher smith, whose cv ranges from the death line style Subway Chiller creep through the satirical slasher severance, to the mediaeval romp, black death. Silence. Whats this room . Mummy says youre not to go there. Excuse me . Mummy says youre forbidden. Jessica Brown Findlay is marianne, a reverends wife who moves into a dusty home full of creaks, shadows and secrets. Anya Mckenna Bruce is adelaide, a young girl who seems to fall under the influence of strange forces, turning her against marianne and leading her back into the houses dark history. Are you talking about the voices . What did you hear . It was nothing. Its a history thats only too familiar to sean harris� flamehead Spiritualist Harry and tojohn lynchs strangely sinister malachi, whos placed this family within these dangerous walls. Metal clangs. Hauntingly lensed by cinematographer sarah cunningham, The Banishing is atmospheric fare that leads its audience down creepy corridors and shadowy tunnels, with echoes of everything from the haunting to the shining with just a hint of the orphanage. Addie . There are flaws the Background Plot about the rise of nazism never quite falls into place, and this doesnt have the pleasing chinese puzzle intricacy of smiths seabound thriller triangle. But it does have an evocative score by toydrum, whose film credits include alice lowes prevenge and who once again lend a touch of magic. The banishing is on a range of digital platforms now. A few years ago, ceyda torun� s Wonderful Documentary Kedi told the story of street cats in istanbul, concluding that cats can teach us to love life and learn to laugh again. Now, elizabeth los stray turns its cameras on istanbuls canine population, offering an extraordinarily intimate portrait of the dogs whose lives also tell us much about ourselves. Lively violin music. At the centre of the film is zeytin, An Olive Eyed Creature who we see negotiating the hustle and bustle of istanbul, a city in which it is illegal to euthanise or imprison stray dogs. Using gps trackers and unobtrusive cameras, lo follows an array of dogs, documenting their lives in impressively naturalistic fashion. Meanwhile, the film draws subtle but unavoidable parallels with the citys homeless population, like the young Syrian Refugees who sleep in a Building Site and who take solace in the company of the dogs who sometimes seem better treated than them. In kedi, it was suggested that dogs think that human beings are god, while cats think that human beings are gods intermediaries. Here, were treated to the thoughts of greek philosopher diogenes, with intertitles telling us that humans live artificially and hypocritically and would do well to study the dog. You can study stray in virtual cinemas and on demand now. From istanbul to colombia, where this years injury for the best International Feature oscar was memories of my father, adapted from an acclaimed memoir about Hector Abad Gomez, written by his son hector abad faciolince. Javier camara is wonderful in the central role as a physician turned University Lecturer with a Strong Social conscience, who speaks out against injustice and inequality. But while his firmly held political views make him a target for those attempting to quash dissent, its his role as a father who takes greatest pride in his family thats at the centre of this episodic yet engrossing film. Directed by fernando trueba, whose varied cv ranges from the spanish oscar winner belle epoque to the gorgeous animation chico rita, memories of my father is a film born of a desire to celebrate the goodness in people. Movies always talk about psychopaths, Serial Killers and utter imbeciles, trueba has said, adding that recounting the humanity of Hector Abad Gomez was an opportunity that wouldnt come my way so often. Thats a sentiment that runs throughout the movie, in which the distant past is shot in rich, saturated hues, while more recent scenes are in black and white, a counterintuitive but highly effective technique that juxtaposes The Vividness Of Childhood Memories with the more monochrome reality of adult life. Memories of my father is available on curzon home cinema. Now, one of the standout offerings at this years sundance and South By Southwest Film Festivals was violation, a riveting and sometimes shocking canadian drama that premiered at toronto in 2020, and is now available on the streaming service shudder. Tense music. Co writer and director Madeleine Sims fewer stars as miriam, sister to anna maguire� s greta, with whom resentment seem to lurk behind the smiles. I miss you. Do you . Yeah, i miss what we used to be like. Miriam when her own relationship with caleb hits the rocks, miriam shares a fireside evening with gretas husband dylan, with terrible consequences. Dylan all im saying is you and me. Were in this together. I know weve hurt each other, | but we care about each other. Just get off. Intriguingly, Violation Intercuts between the revelations of what happened that night with the repercussions that follow, creating a narrative tension that keeps the audience on edge while also offering a bold new take on the revenge genre. There are shades of the nature is satan� s church� mantra from lars von trier� s antichrist in the almost mythical rural setting, along with an unforgiving physicality that put me in mind of kieslowskis A Short Film About Killing and danny boyles shallow grave. Thats a heady cocktail, and the film certainly packs a powerful punch. But be warned violation is not for the faint hearted. You can find it now on shudder. Ill leave you with news that Tom And Jerry the battling Cat And Mouse whose short films date back to the iios now have a 21st century feature, combining live action with digital animation. Listen here, mr mouse. 0h . Jerry. I need thisjob. So, simply put, this is a hotel, and youre a mouse, so. Chloe grace moretz stars as kayla, who scams her way into a job at a swanky New York Hotel due to host a lavish celebrity wedding, only to have her plan scuppered and sometimes assisted by the titular pair. Jerry giggles. Having become tv staples in the 60s and having their first full feature film in the 90s, after a couple cameo appearances, Tom And Jerry have stirred controversy over the years for everything from racial stereotyping to excessive violence. The latter is certainly on display here, with tom getting bashed, smashed, snapped, ejected, electrocuted, hit in the face with an iron, and on the fingers with a bowling ball, all to no lasting effect. Which is, of course, slapstick business as usual. Clearly determined to move things on a bit, director tim story and writer Kevin Costello have the Cat And Mouse learn to put aside their differences, and build the plot around a multicultural celebration that also enables them to have Elephants Wreaking Havoc in upmarket manhattan. Its hardly vintage fare, and theres the usual preponderance of knowing gags about Copyright Infringement and silence of the lambs to keep the adults smirking, while the kids giggle at characters hitting each other with heavy objects. As usual, the old ones are still the best. Tom and jerry is available from a range of digital retailers. Thats it for this week. Thanks for watching the film review. Stay safe, and ill see you next week. No she scoffs. Hello, im olly foster, this is sports today, live from the bbc sport centre. Coming up on this programme.
