"This is another one of Dan’s choices. I don’t really know much about this song, but I reckon it’s probably got some harmonizing guitars in it. Or maybe Frankie [Poullain, bass] chose this one, because he loves a bit of Phil Lynott – his posture and his voice and the hardships that he suffered in his development. I think we can all be inspired by that and Live And Dangerous is an excellent distillation of the attitude of that musical artiste. And every song on it is a hit. There is a rumour they re-recorded everything apart from the crowd sound, but that’s only a rumour. It’s an album. We should just enjoy it for what it is."

One could view this as one of the best Goth romance movies. On a small island, a young winery guide, Moll, meets and falls for the dangerous stranger who may or may not be murdering young women on the island. It is a sexual awakening for the outsider. Moll unearths untold power and strength. Recently, I have been watching a lot of Jessie Buckley performances. I have noticed that she has a huge tic where when she speaks she upturns the right side of her lips. It is far noticeable when she plays American, like in "Fargo" and "I'm Thinking of Ending Things." But she also uses it here to twist herself as she spirals toward an inevitable clash.

Aardman animations.

Football. (or, as our American cousins call it, soccer).

Two quintessentially British things.

This is the first non-Wallace and Gromit Aardman claymation film since 'Chicken Run' (from the year 2000, I think), introducing a whole host of new characters and setting: prehistory, with a Stone Age tribe merrily doing their own thing hunting that most dangerous and elusive of all creatures (rabbits) in their valley, until they are forced out of the valley by their most sophisticated bronze age neighbours.

To get their own land back, they challenge said neighbours to a game of footie, despite not knowing how to play the game ...

Like I said at the top, quintessentially British.

Farmageddon
Shaun The Sheep Movie: Farmageddon is a excellent sequel to the oringal. I love the oringal and ao i had high expections for this one and it didnt disapoint. I just love Aardman Animations and think their make excellent movies. I love the stop motion and clay animation. Chicken Run, Wallace & Gromit: The Cruse of the Were-Rabbit, Shaun the Sheep Movie and now this one. Are all excellent films.

The Plot: When an alien possessing strange powers crash-lands near Mossy Bottom Farm, Shaun the Sheep quickly makes a new friend. Together they must run from a dangerous organisation who wants to capture the intergalactic visitor.

Its funny, cute, entertaining and overall a excellent movie.

Sweet Little Innocent Girl
Orphan- is a really good psychological horror film about a orphan who seems sweet and innocent at first but it turns out shes not. Plus the twist is excellent. The cast is really good expectally Isabelle Fuhrman she was fantasic and excellent.

The Plot: Devastated by the loss of their unborn baby, Kate (Vera Farmiga) and John (Peter Sarsgaard) decide to adopt a child. At the orphanage, both feel drawn to a little girl (Isabelle Fuhrman) named Esther, and soon the couple take their new daughter home. But when a dangerous series of events unfolds, Kate begins to suspect that there is something evil lurking behind the child's angelic exterior.

Its a excellent movie.
