Unthinkable mere weeks ago, that's all she wrote for the Slot machine. He seems as baffled as anyone about what's happening.

I’m not doing Black Friday this year.
I’d rather be honest with you than try to compete with big brands.
Every purchase genuinely makes a difference to my tiny business.
Shop independent this Christmas.

I'm having difficulty with the idea of Bjork being 60. That can't be right, can it?!

Liverpool cinemas don't seem to be showing Lucile Hadžihalilović's latest, The Ice Tower. I loved her previous two - Evolution (2015) and Earwig (2021) - so that is, to say the least, disappointing. In addition, it's a retelling of a wintry tale; perfect, you'd think, for the time of year? ❄️

Subscribed once more to bfi player - largely to watch Terence Davies' Of Time and the City again for something. But, having cancelled mubi a while back, it's going to be nice to have a dedicated film streaming platform again 🎬

Moon, starring Sam Rockwell in top form, is on film4 this evening (9pm UK time). Directed by @manmademoon.bsky.social, it's up there with my favourite science fiction, and one of my films of the century so far!
