Weve had here in tokyo. But whilejonnie peacock� s reign might be over, earlier on, britain found a new 100 metre star. Andrew small took up athletics after watching the london paralympics. Now the man inspired by 2012 was victorious in 2021. Small gets it. For small, who had to train in his garage during lockdown, the pride was plain. But it was nothing to that back at his family home. His Dad Steve pushing every inch of the way, and come the finish, this is what it meant. Cheering. Yeah, my family are my biggest supporters, through thick and thin. Theyve seen a lot of ups and downs. There was a lot of long, hard sessions in a cold, dark garage at night. But, you know, the culmination of that is here. And other british athletes had gold in their sights. In the archery, Phoebe Paterson Pine taking the title by a single point. The tiniest possible margin for the biggest possible prize. But most remarkably of all, there was another gold for sir lee pearson, on breezer, the horse he bred at his home in staffordshire, his third title here and his 14th in total. Another glittering games for one of british sports most glittering stars. Theres more throughout the evening on the Bbc News channel. Were back with the late news at ten. Now on bbc one, its time for the news where you are. Goodbye. Attack has killed ten civilians. Now on Bbc News, the Film Review. Hello, and welcome to the Film Review with me, anna smith. Im filling in for Mark Kermode to review this weeks releases. So, legend has it that if you look in the mirror and say his name five times, he will appear behind you. Candyman. Anthony. Candyman. Anthony, no. Candyman. Stop stop it. Candyman. Stop it 0k. You better not do that. 0k, 0k. Whispers candyman. You play too much 0w, no, stop yes, the candyman is back. While there have been other sequels, this is framed as a direct sequel to the 1992 horror about a Supernatural Killer with a hook for a hand, who is hunting the Housing Projects of chicagos cabrini green. Fast forward to the present, and the areas being gentrified with Luxury Loft condos. Its a comfortable life for visual artist anthony, played by Yahya Abdul Mateen ii, and his gallery director partner, brianna, played by teyonah parris. At least until anthony decides that the best way to get artistic inspiration is to invoke said candyman. Lets just say his new exhibition hits the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Say his name. Candyman. Ah if youre looking for scares, then candyman has plenty of suspenseful scenes and a few very gory moments. But its also darkly funny and thought provoking. Expertly directed by nia dacosta, this is co produced and co written byjordan peel, the man behind get out and us. Like those films, candyman explores the monstrous aspects of real people, not just supernatural ones, and delivers a contemporary cynical spin on archetypes from the art world. While on the one hand this comedy reinforces stereotypes about powerful wealthy people, the casting subtly bucks tradition. Very few of these characters are played by white men. The same cannot be said of the many Police Officers in this film. This has a lot to say about Police Brutality and race relations. Candyman also has a very distinct visual identity, from its opening font, to its flashbacks told by shadow puppetry. Honestly, this is such an interesting film, i could write a thesis on it. Im sure students will be doing so for years to come. Candyman. No Candyman Ugh 0h dont say his name. Dont follow me. Its in cinemas now, and if you want to see the original candyman, its on netflix now. They sing 0ur Story is older than these hills and glens. It was springtime, and we had one thing on our minds. Boys. But it was more of an innocent time, before Social Media and Mobile Phones changed everything forever. It was 1996. As a former catholic schoolgirl, i was intrigued to see the new Comedy Drama 0ur ladies, about Choir Girls Running Riot in 1990s edinburgh. This is based on the award winning novel The Sopranos by alan warner, which was taken to the stage as 0ur Ladies of perpetual succour, the name of the school in the rural highlands. Now simply called 0ur Ladies, it follows a choir of Trilling Teens whove won a place in edinburgh competition. Theyre taken there by Choir Mistress Sister condron, whos played by Kate Dickey in a rare and welcome comedic role. Rather rashly, she lets the girls decide what to do with their free time in the big city. I mean, how much mischief can a group of schoolgirls really get up to . Yeah, you guessed it, a lot. Fresh meat three oclock. Three oclock. Having exhausted most of the romantic and sexual opportunities in their small highland town, 0rla, tallulah greive, chell, Rona Morrison and kyla, marli siu, head off on the pull, complete with a supersized bottle of cola spiked with vodka. Meanwhile, finnoula, played by Abigail Lawrie sidles off on a secret mission, where she bumps into head girl, kay, played by eve austin. What follows is a witty Whistle Stop Tour of edinburgh haunts. Whether theyre ruling the karaoke or winding up the local coppers, these girls are brimming with indestructible teenage confidence. But, of course, there are serious Dramas Underneath from friendships in crisis to cancer. While i think this Film Wouldve benefited from more women behind the scenes, Caton Jones does a good job of bringing the characters to life with a great cast to capture the storys mischievous spirit. 0ur Ladies is in cinemas now. Are you ready to order, sir . Yeah, i think so. Well start with a dozen oysters and the shrimp cocktail. My princess will have the chateaubriand, and ill do the whole roasted sea bass. Lets start with a bottle of white, and then we will have red with our dinner, whatever goes best with our food. Dont look at him, ive. Told you what we wanted. Thank you. Youre embarrassing. And youre exhausting. How . Everything is going to be fine. From 1996 to 1986, Wherejude Law Stars as a volatile father in The Nest. An unsettling claustrophobic drama, The Nest sees a family of four uprooted from the states to rural england. Rich rory has found what he thinks is an irresistible Business Opportunity in london and rents a huge Country House thats entirely impractical, just one sign of his impulsive nature and unrealistic ambition. Theres a flavour of the Mosquito Coast as he drags his family into his schemes, but this also feels like a very personal work from Writer Director sean durkin, who gave us the brilliant Martha Marcy may marlene in 2011. Carrie coon puts in a riveting performance as rory� s equestrian wife, alison, a Strident Sardonic women going through a range of emotions over the course of this film. I remember really enjoying her performance as ben affleck� s sister, margo, in gone girl, and as a Cult Leader in tv� s the sinner. Jude law, meanwhile, delivers a suitably manic performance, but hes particularly good when were let in on rory� s more private moments. What with this and tv� s the third day, law seems to be on a roll, and he isjoined by a strong supporting cast, including adeel akhtar, anne reid, and michael culkin, who incidentally also had a role in the original candyman film. Exploring themes including masculinity, gender and family, The Nest is a rewarding watch thats made all the more intense by durkin� s use of horror stylings. What is happening . Youre all strangers to me right now all of you youre embarrassing. And youre exhausting. Wmsmzns this is what we always wanted. Its in cinemas now. An egyptian teenager leads a double life in the new drama souad. 19 year old souad played by bassant ahmed wears her veil in public, but her Social Media tells a different story. She shares flirty photos and texts with her boyfriend, ahmed, whom shes never met. Heryoungersister, rabab, played by basmala el ghaiesh, observes all of this and plays an increasingly key role in this film of two halves. Its a fascinating and disturbing look at the contradiction of young girls� lives in modern day urban egypt. Film Maker Ayten Amin draws excellent performances from her cast of newcomers, and everyday scenes become riveting under her keen observational eye. I couldve watched the opening bus scene, in Which Souad tells various strangers tall stories about her fiance, for hours. And theres a subtle Bathroom Moment that speaks volumes about repressed female sexuality. Souads second Half Isnt quite as strong as its first, but it is still a real find when it comes to thoughtful art house fare. Its in cinemas now, including londons bfi southbank, as part their season on contemporary arab cinema. Ten, ten, through the course of this, theres been a terrorist incident. A what . They were speaking their own language, they werent speaking in english. You dont think they couldve been speaking welsh . This gentleman was sent by a Crime Family who are intent on taking over your turf. Hand over you takings how much is it . £1. 20. Oh, come on last week, i mentioned michael smiley� s great supporting turn in the horrorfilm sensor, this week, turn in the horrorfilm sensor. This week, hes back in a leading role in a thriller, the toll. Smiley plays a Tollbooth Worker in rural wales. Hes rarely troubled by passing traffic, but that suits him just fine. Hes a criminal lying low and figures that no one will find him in the middle of nowhere. But, of course, one day, a driver recognises him and his past threatens to catch up with him. His previous life is a mystery, but his calm and ruthless demeanour speaks volumes. Humorously, it turns out that he is far from the only criminal in this remote corner of west wales. Pretty much everyone else is up to no good, apart from One Cop played by annes elwy. The amusing supporting cast includes game of Thrones Star iwan rheon, Sightseers Star Steve 0hram, and comedian paul kaye, who plays an eccentric ambulance driver. The addition of a female Elvis Impersonator and her sidekick feels superfluous, so the toll is a bit crowded. But its a very enjoyable watch for fans of dark british crime comedy. Where did you hide this car . Its in cinemas and on digital now. Thanks for watching the Film Review with me, anna smith. Ill be back next week. In the meantime, stay safe. You might prefer my usual Technique Cave his head in with a brick, blame it on the gypsies. Theyre travellers, though. Travellers travel. Theyre gypsies. Hello, im ros atkins, this is 0utside source.
