Hank Marvin The King Of Marvin Gardens Marvellous Marvin Hagler

His domestic policies were imperialistic,very reactionary and anti working class. His leadership was swiftly rejected, with barely a second thought, when the conflict ended. What surprised me and what made the film's premise dubious was that in my quite extensive reading about the two wars, I've only come across passing mention of his fear that Overlord would end up like the Gallipolli campaign. Here it was the heart of the film and drawn out in a quite tortuous way, making him into a very unsympathetic, tantrum prone crybaby. Sounds familiar.

Churchill - Jonathon Teplitzky (2017) Didn't know quite what to make of this. Sterling performances by Brian Cox and Miranda Richardson. The idea of Churchill as a high maintenance narcissist, sulking over his diminished role as a decision maker was problematic to say the least. Partially redeemed by an inspirational ending speech, but the jury is out on this one. Looking forward to seeing what Gary Oldman does with the part

I had the original vinyl of this one. Great title track.

Night People - Nunnally Johnson (1954) Abacus: Small Enough To Jail - Steve James (2016)

Discs 1 & 2 Really impressive sound quality.

Paris Can Wait - Eleanor Coppola (2017) Two people drive from the French riviera to Paris. They see lots of lovely scenery and stuff themselves silly on gourmet food. Lightweight and charming but super undemanding. Alec Baldwin is listed on the credits but only makes a cameo appearance. The food looks really divine.

LIfe With Father - Michael Curtiz (1947) Father is self important, pompous and a crushing bore. Nice Irene Dunne should have taken the money and left with the kids. Two hours in father's company are more than ample. The film has aged badly . I found it barely watchable, with William Powell's one note performance shrill and irritating. Comanche Station - Budd Boetticher (1960) You can't go wrong with Budd & Randolph.

Harry Dean Stanton has died. I'll best remember him in Paris, Texas. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/sep/15/harry-dean-stanton-actor-dies-paris-texas-alien-repo-man

Frank Vincent has died. Was lucky to have played some truly memorable parts. Sad that we'll not see him again.
