I wanna go back to Uni and start a society called the Newman Society, and when people join it turns out that we are devoted to studying the life and thought of the great Francis William Newman - John Henry Newman's smarter brother..

The Return is an impressive, austere film, with strong performances, based on a script by Edward Bond, no less. Yet it is an example of one of my least favourite genres: take a mythological story and strip out all the mythology. This one is saved, I think, by the faces...

Watching The Holly and The Ivy (1952), my go-to Christmas movie these days. A lovely, grown-up Christmas story that just keeps getting better as it goes on. And a young and sexy Denholm Elliot is always such a joy..
