Even worse luck in The Day of the Jackal.

Brolin must run a marathon in this movie, in which he sprained an ankle which saw production shut down for a fortnight and original director Sidney J Furie walk out in a huff. Might be the best film I've seen all year.

Highlights include an insane car chase across Central Park featuring Mandy Patinkin as a rather improbable Latino cab driver and a full throttle Dan Hedaya blasting out windows in Fifth Avenue.

Cue an absurdly entertaining chase across the scuzzier parts of New York - the Bronx in particular looks like it's just had a visit from the Luftwaffe - engaging with Puerto Rican knife gangs and enraged pimps.

I’m trialling Bournemouth v Fulham but not having quite the same effect.

Saw a research preview of it back in March and absolutely loved it. Wonderfully sinister, although the questionnaire afterwards seemed quite concerned that we might not understand the plot!

On very decent and quite spiky form!

Risky to lose him and Dango when we're already thin squad wise and Brooksy has made noises about moving on too. Annoyingly, Sini is actually really good despite his Junior Stanislas levels of fitness. Would be disappointing to offload him at a massive loss when he's virtually fit again (allegedly).

Be surprised they'd let him be part of the kit launch if he was leaving. And Cruzeiro's most expensive current player cost €8m so unless we're prepared to take a massive bath on him I can't see it.

In the 2010s my mother was making some fairy cakes and topped them with some hundreds and thousands. I thought the packaging looked a bit odd and discovered the expiry date was May 1977. Somehow we survived.

Hope it didn't get too Jacob's Ladder.

Always amused me that on page one of Call Of The Dead Smiley is described by his wife as 'breathtakingly ordinary', and by Le Carre as short and fat and wearer of bad clothes that 'hung on his squat frame like skin on a shrunken toad.' Then they cast James Mason in the film version.

The dubbing is pretty shonky but the cast is decent. Enjoyed the bleakness of the ending.
