they are liberal? and when they arrive at the mansion— like cows, thatis arrive at the mansion— like cows, that is much the arrive at the mansion— like cows, that is - much the first thing that is pretty much the first thing he says cinema i would have a delete —— i would have voted for obama for —— i would have voted forj‘ubag. g—fzog—e third time. here is a clip. how a third time. here is a clip. how long has this been going on, this thing? for months. four months? five months, actually. she's right, i'm wrong. that's a boy, better get used to saying that! i'm so sorry. she's right, i'm wrong. does he have an off button? d1 to unpack? at first, everything seems chummy, but there are signs that everything isn't quite right. the housemaid and groundskeeper smile in a way that seems robotic almost. the friends turn up and they are notjust attentive, it's almost as if they are treating the guest as some kind of trophy. we then move into something that the writer of ste pford something that the writer of stepford wives would have stepfordayivesrmeuldzbak recognised. it manages the ship between being just about credible and going into something rather different very gradually. at its best when i think all the horror remains hidden. the way to think of it is as something that starts out asa it is as something that starts out as a modern version of guess who's coming to 55555 as a modern version of guess who's coming to a“; and as a modern version of guess who's ‘qqulufiuiqtgmm‘3‘pfflfltiyiafi?“ t — as a modern version of guess who's iiistiluiirg to mm... and if?“ it t — as a modern version of guess who's coming to pm5 and thin it drifts ' coming to dinner and then it drifts towards greenroom. there is humour all the way through, and there are dark laughs in it. the satire is really sort of piercing, and then when it needs to turn into something thrilling, shocking, it doesn't hold back. i thought it was a really effective piece of work. i so it with a full screening room of people 55‘5 5 55 55 555555555554 55555745 we re 55‘5 5 55 55 555555555554 55555745 werejumping, 555 5 55 55 555555555555 5555557515 were jumping, shrieking 555 55 55 55 555555555555 5555557515 were jumping, shrieking and who werejumping, shrieking and laughing when they were meant to. it's a really, really smart social thriller/ horror film. overall, is ita thriller/ horror film. overall, is it a satire about race? weirdly, it is about the underlying racism of the liberal elite, to some extent. it is not a film in which rednecks are the bad guys. the liberals, who appear to be incredibly egalitarian, but there is something really sinister beneath the surface. i don't want to give anything away. as you say, the trailer is a real teaser and will get a lot of people going dizzy. they will be disappointed. really intriguing. the salesman won the best foreign—language oscar. the salesman won the best foreign-language oscar. it did. it was boycotted by the director because of donald trump's travel ban. i think this is a very fine piece of work. husband—and—wife, part—time actors, putting on the play, death of a salesman. the real—life relationship spills onto the stage. some people have complained the film is too schematic, that the bridge between the play and real life is too contrived. i disagree. the play and real life is too contrived. idisagree. i the play and real life is too contrived. i disagree. ithought the play and real life is too contrived. i disagree. i thought it slip from social observation into psychological thriller almost unnoticed. the performances are terrific. i think it is a really humane work and you can absolutely believe in the characters and their situations. i think it's a film that blends the personal level and the political rather beautiful lake —— rather beautifully. having heard a few lu kewa rm i rather beautifully. having heard a few lukewarm i was rather beautifully. having heard a few lukewarm - i was very, few lukewarm reviews, i was very, very impressed by it. he won before for a separation. that is in a league of its own and it's not as good as that, but that is a high water mark. it is a smart, intelligent, melancholic, insightful intelligent; melancholic; insightful! drama about people you can really believe in. you mentioned good performances in that. that seems to be the overriding theme of your third film of the week. personal shopper. itjuxtaposes the spiritual and material wealth. it is literally a search for the afterlife and a search for a nice pair of shoes. she is a personal shopperfor a rich celebrity, so she spends her 5; $ going round choosing her life going round choosing her wardrobe. however, she is also we rd mm having lost a brother, and buried, having lost a brother, and she's trying to make contact with her brother because she - a her brother because she was a medium. he was a clip. you're staying here tomorrow? i'm waiting. i told you i was waiting. what are you waiting for? we made this both. —— oath. you waiting for? we made this both. — — oath. whoever you waiting for? we made this both. —— oath. whoever died first would send the other a sign. a sign... from the afterlife ? send the other a sign. a sign... from the afterlife? you could call it that, call it a million things. how do you know if it is a 555; i'm! how do you know if it is a sign? i'm a medium. he was a medium. i'lljust know it. so, it's a really intriguing setup. at the beginning, it looks like being a really creepy goat story, has her walking around the house, attempting to contact her brother. then, she starts getting text messages, and it's almost like her phone is working as a ouija board. she doesn't know that the text messages are coming - a text messages are coming from a brother, another spirit, a real—life stalker, or whether as the don suggests, they are coming from herself, they are somehow subconscious. the techs are asking, what are you afraid of and ashamed of? the phone almost becomes a confident. as the film slips between the genres, as far as the supernatural stuff is concerned, it sta rts supernatural stuff is concerned, it starts to be less sure—footed and d rifts into starts to be less sure—footed and drifts into territory that could be rather foolish. the drifts into territory that could be ratherfoolish. the reason that holds it together is because of her performance. she is in almost every shop, and it's a really sort of raw performance. she is brilliant, someone performance. she is brilliant, someone who is trying out different identities in the way she tries out different clothes. for all the flaws of the film, and there are many, she is so good that she just carries it through, and i was mesmerised by her. as i said, i have been a huge fan of hers for a while. i love the twilight movies, but in this, she is really fine and it silences all the critics. this is a properly brilliant performance. so it is worth seeing it for her? the film is fine, adventurous, but it is flawed, but i would rather something aimed high and - slightly short of the high and fell slightly short of the mark than just settled for something. this isn't something that you've seen every day. ok. we always like to talk about film of the week. you and i could still be talking about the film at won the best picture oscar. it is great, go and see it. we should perhaps pick out something else. there is another choice, this animate called silent voice. it is a schoolyard drama dealing with serious subjects — bullying, isolation, loneliness, self harm, suicidal thoughts, disability, in a way that is uplifting. a beautiful score, the animation is really well done, and it is one of those films that is all about learning to look the world in about learning to look: the—world in1' the, about about learning to look: the—world i.hi the, about learning to apologise for your mistakes. it is a film with a lot of crying in it, and i don't just- on—screen. lot of crying in it, and i don't just - on—screen. i lot of crying in it, and i don't just- on—screen. i thought it just mean on—screen. i thought it was very touching, very impressive, and done with honesty. good. moonlight is still the best film! dvd of the week is, and anyone who follows me on twitter know is that i detested nocturnal animals. very but hugely anti—women, and a stylish but hugely anti—women, and a difficult watch . a woman, and a difficult watch as a woman, and a lot of people have said that.|i don't lot of people have said that.” don't think it is, but i understand that point of view. there is an la art dealer who receives a manuscript from her ex—husband, which is a violent story which seems to have parallels with their life together, and the way in which one reads that story within a story, the fiction within a fiction, affects the reading of the film. i know that a lot of people really don't like it, andi lot of people really don't like it, and i utterly respect that they don't. i have to say that i don't think that it is offensive in the way that some people do, but it is worth flagging up the fact that there are some people who have seen it and thought, this isjust there are some people who have seen it and thought, this is just a film thatis it and thought, this is just a film that is revelling in his violence. in its defence, on the violence issue, there is very little that you see. i mean, ithink that issue, there is very little that you see. i mean, i think that one of the reasons it is powerful is because its ideas are powerful, and unpleasa ntly power. —— its ideas are powerful, and unpleasantly power. —— powerful. its ideas are powerful, and unpleasantly power. -- powerful. you don't, that's right, but it is unsettling. and that may account for the fact that it is only a 15 as well. i would be more unsettling if well. it would be more unsettling if it was less well made and you could just switch off. it is a 15 because there is very little actually explain —— actually despite, but you think it is worse because it is tense. i absolutely understand your reservations, i just uncheck them. ferry north. thank you very much. that's the dvd for this week — that's the dvdieethiseueeeg nocturnal animals made by tom ford. we go, you will find all our before we go, you will find all our film reviews on the website. and all our previous programmes are there, and on the iplayer, of course. that is it for this week. enjoy your cinema going. goodbye. so that is this week's film review. if you want to see the six o'clock news, that is coming up on bbc one, but do stay with us on the bbc news channel because we will be joining our colleagues on bbc world news, because as you see from this shot from the white house, we are still waiting for that news conference. donald trump and angela merkel, due to give a news conference. that pressure has been absolutely packed for more than half an hour now, so we think it should begin fairly soon, but one way or another, we will be there in washington, dc, because this will be very interesting to hear what has emerged from that meeting between the two leaders. angela who from that meeting between the two leaders. angela - who had such leaders. angela merkel, who had such a good relationship with president obama, of course. we think defence spending will have been discussed, and trade very much on the agenda as well. we will be live in washington, dc as soon as that press conference gets underway. we will pause momentarily, because we think we have time for the weather prospects. we have seen better weekends for the middle of march. it will be windy, with a lot of cloud and outbreaks of 5555 5 155 55 515-45 555 5-45515555 55 5555 5 155 55 515-45 555 5-45555555 55 mostly affects the northern rain. mostly affects the northern and western parts of the uk. cloud has been moving into the south steadily through the afternoon and into the evening. for many places, the view out the window look something like this. we have quite a bit of rain under this. let's look at the atlantic, because there is a lot more cloud heading our way. that is likely to bring rain with it, so pretty unsettled over the next few days. we've still got plenty of rain to come across the north and west of the uk overnight tonight. little bits and pieces will get across the pennines, but not too much rain in the south—east overnight. with all the south—east overnight. with all the cloud in the win, it is not particularly cold will stop in northern scotland, clearer skies, much lower temperatures and frost developing. across wales and the south west is in the morning, the rainfall totals are totting up by this stage. dry inland. maybe a few pockets of light rain and drizzle hereunder, but a lot of dry weather. it will be mild. the best of the brea ks it will be mild. the best of the breaks in the cloud will be to the east of the pennines. elsewhere, cloudy, certainly in northern cloudy; certainly in northern with of rain. not ireland, with outbreaks of rain. not too much rain first too much rain across scotland first thing. afair too much rain across scotland first thing. a fair bit of cloud, and a chilli fields of things, especially in the north. —— a cold feel to things. rain will get into the and towards the eastern midlands and towards the eastern side of england later in the afternoon, but eastern scotland hangs on to sunny spells. colder in the north, milder in the south. for the north, milder in the south. for the six nations, it looks like all venues the six nations, it looks like all venues will be cloudy but the rain should hold off mostly. in the second part of the whee kim, the best of the breaks will be to the best of the breaks will betoihe of the pennines. elsewhere are, east of thefpehnines; etséwi’iefé’ai‘é’,'= a lot of clout. most of the rain will be in the north and west. it may turn up a little further south. early in ten next week, we are going to lose the mild air, replace it something cooler, and are with something cooler, and are likely to be outbreaks of rain. what's going on, keep up—to—date online. —— early into next week. hello, our top story. they have disagreed over plenty already and today they are meeting the first time. the german chancellor angela merkel and us president trump post to the cameras the althorp office and now it is down to business. this is live at the white house, we expect both leaders to do their pressjoint conference, press joint conference, also first press joint conference, also the white house will not repeat allegations that the uk spied on and donald trump. angry‘s tough stance against migration. the government is building container camps for asylum seekers along the border, and the cost of sleep or the lack of it. i'm not getting enough has a damaging impact on the world economy.
