Marking the 80th anniversary of the end of WWII, I wanted to write about the writers and directors who were working during the war and the incredible films they managed to produce - with particular focus on John Ford, William Wyler and Alfred Hitchcock.
MJ's @fionaunderhill.bsky.social says, "Modern day Hollywood can certainly learn a thing or two from the filmmakers who worked during World War II, they didn’t shy away from confronting uncomfortable truths..."

Check out the latest feature from Fiona on WWII films, 80 years later.

This has been a classic episode:

Bobby's reaction to finding out Nadine is a superhuman sex fiend

Dick shouting at Andy for drinking wine at a wine tasting SPIT IT OUT!

Coop kissing Heather Graham in a row boat

Lynch kissing Madchen Amick (whom amongst us wouldn't if we were running this show?)
Also: I had no idea that Heather Graham was in Twin Peaks
The Night Manager season 2, you have my attention 👀
*shocked* that a good choice has been made for once
GDT's Frankenstein lands on Netflix this week and it's great. A couple of years ago I listed the 15 best Frank Flicks from across the decades - from 1910 to the 2020s.

Shout out to Reanimator, the NT Live Frankenstein, Penny Dreadful and Ken Russell's Gothic!

Fall inspo from Lucy the legend
Florence's new album 🔥🔥🔥

Suranne Jones is so good as Aimee Lou Wood's mum (although too young).

I'm always on the lookout for more of these short but sweet (preferably British) shows with a romantic element.

Sorry for photo of my laptop but this is what I mean:

One of my all-time favourite performances, he's extraordinary in it

My teen son dressed as his hero - Rivers Cuomo from Weezer - for Halloween 😊
Just passed a sexy ladybird 🐞 and a cowboy 🤠 (non-sexy) while on my morning walk. I love Halloween.
Hildur Gudnadottir knocked the HEDDA score out of the park, loved it.

Costumes by Lindsay Pugh also excellent.

Tessa, my love, you can do no wrong.
