Oct-Nov 2015
Deadly Hunt. Made for TV movie with Tony Franciosa. Pretty good. Forest fires. Two assassins. Evil husband trying to kill rich wife. 60s jazzy score. Guitar and harpsichord in different tempos like they do in Butch and Sundance. 3/5
Imagine.... Beware of Mr Baker. BBC doc about Ginger Baker. Thoroughly nasty man but Jesus could he play drums. Quite well put together. 3.5/5
Dr Foster. Crap. 1/5 earned purely by Suranne Jones. Plot and characters totally unbelievable.
Jigsaw. Brighton. Jack Warner. 3/5 but I need to watch the last half hour again.
The Party's Over. Ollie Reed. 60s beatnicks. Weird. 2.5/5
The Dick Powell Show. Crazy Sunday. Dana Andrews, Rip Torn, Vera Miles etc based on F Scott F short story about a Hollywood scriptwriter. Excellent. 4/5 (last week watched one about the early days of the FDA - w/ William Bendix and Bert Freed also v good)
Three cases of murder. 3/5. Pretty good anthology. Alan Badel in each film.
Bronson. Tom Hardy - a genius. 3.5/5.
Beat Girl. Adam Faith. 3/5. Sort of interesting.
Back to the Future. 4/5. Great fun. It was BTTF day this week.
Dateline Diamonds. 2/5. Small Faces. Conrad Phillips. Kiki Dee. Apart from the safe-blowing scene it was pretty contrived.
Dance Hall. Everybody in it even Harry Fowler. Bit with Petula Clark's parents buying her a dres was moving. 3.5/5
The Gorbals Story. Made at Merton. Based on a stage play. Not bad. 3/5
Doc Martin. 4/5. Season 7. Really enjoyed it. Think there was an in joke with a signpost to Labilla Manor. And a heart-warming ending.
Watched Unforgotten (ugly bird) Nicola
Watching Justified Season ?
Watching Castle Season ?
Harry Brown. Michael Caine. Better than Gran Turino. Because British! 4/5.
Calvary. 3.5/5. Interesting... Catholic priest threatened (during confession) to be killed by parishioner who was raped by priest as a child. Beautifully shot.
