As I have said in previous articles during the trial of the Hip-Hop superstar Sean “Diddy” Combs, his conviction for soliciting prostitution could be seen as a let off considering his abusive treatment of women over a long period of time. So, you would think that no matter how aggrieved Combs was with the new…
It’s that time of year again when I look back at my personal TV highs and lows and shout out a few favourites that might have slipped under the radar. It’s been a surprisingly strong year, with plenty of series giving films a proper run for their money. I’m sure I’ve missed many of your…
I was filled with trepidation before watching this Netflix in-depth interview because I have never really warmed to David Letterman. His long-running late-night show on NBC often had me rolling my eyes as he interrupted guests with smug, unfunny comments. However, he seems to have mellowed, and this conversation with the Marmite Adam Sandler is…
The Grim is one of those plays that feels like a welcome throwback fast-talking, witty, and proudly chaotic, the sort of old-style theatre you don’t often see anymore. Set in London in 1964, it follows Shaun (Edmund Morris) and Robert, two undertakers trying to get through another uneventful morning in the East End. That calm day…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Season 5 hits with a bang and doesn’t just raise the stakes it blows the doors clean off. It packs so much punch. We jump right back in where we left off: Hawkins torn open by a massive rift to the Upside Down, now living under full military quarantine. Everyone knows Vecna is still lurking, so…
I loved the first season so much and was genuinely excited to watch the next series, which is out today. So far, I am already hooked. It’s intense, gripping, and it proves yet again just how important the work of these investigators is. This show doesn’t just highlight cases it highlights the emotional weight, the…
Wild Cherry definitely gives off Gossip Girl vibes, but with a darker twist of Pretty Little Liars and a dash of Mean Girls and honestly, that cocktail makes it pretty addictive. Set in the exclusive, ultra-wealthy gated community of Richford Lake, the story revolves around two mothers Juliet (played by Eve Best) and Lorna (played by Carmen Ejogo) and their teenage daughters, Grace and…
Does having autism make someone more or less likely to become a killer? It’s an uncomfortable question, yet it sits at the heart of this undeniably tragic yet often frustrating documentary. The film never quite knows whether it wants to explore the mystery of a family’s demise or the complexities of neurodivergence, and that tension…
There’s something instantly charming about a film that begins with its actors sitting in a cinema watching a movie. It pulls you right into its world, like you’ve slipped into the seat beside them. Nouvelle Vague does exactly that, and from the opening scene I knew I was in for something funny, clever, and unexpectedly engaging. A…
I grew up already knowing about Richard Burton well, Richard Jenkins because my dad adores him. Honestly, he might even be my dad’s favourite actor of all time. So when I watched Mr Burton, I went in with a kind of inherited familiarity. What I didn’t expect was just how moving and brilliantly crafted the film…
