Yeah, King Richard is about the williams sisters Dad.

The King (film) starring Timothee Chalamet is about Henry V who fought at Agincourt, King Richard III fought at Bosworth and can be seen on film either as Oliver's famouse hunchback version (y'know...Now is the winter of our discontent, made glorious summer by this sun of York....) or McKellen's 1995 version where he plays him as a sort of Nazi.

Moonage Daydream is fuckin brilliant probably a mistake taking my autistic son though serious sensory overload 😐

Not a recent film but everyone’s watched it. In fact it was a part of my English Lit lesson at school. Read the book then watch the film. 
 

Happy Birthday, David Bradley,

Was on our school syllabus too. An absolute classic. Vic and Bob's interpretation was brilliant too.

Just watched Kajaki.

By Christ those lads had it tough. 

Listening to "oh lancashire, is wonderful... and the wanderers" with gore and limbs everywhere. What a fucking sight that must have been.

Thanks for reminding me about this. It is a great film but seems to have gone under the radar somehow for most?

I had forgotten the Wanderers link too!

Also one of the few military films that hasn't made me wince how they portray squaddies!

The banter, raft of different accents and camaraderie shown is spot on.

Can I add reboot of Hellraiser. Bobbins

[Casino]

One for @royal white

Retrograde...getting a cinema release, i think, but its on national geographic

As I like my war films I got told All Quiet On The Western Front is a great film.  2.5hrs long but very good, they definitely blew a big budget on this one, worth a watch as it's through the eyes of the Germans in WW1, they got a right good kicking in it too.

Just watched it, he was brave throwing the bag over then jumping onto it.   Something else them lads.  Loved the Wanderers song too, made me proud..

Just watched the Banshees of Inishern, go and watch it in the pictures if you can, utterly brilliant.

What's going on with Timothy Spall these days? Brilliant as Barry in Auf Wiedersehn pet. Liked a lot of what he has done since but the last two films I've seen? That bus ride thing from Scotland to Cornwall thing was as boring as bat shit and I had the displeasure of watching 'It Snows In Benidorm' last night. FFS, what a load of nonsense. On the plus side it had a rather magnificent Latina (played by a British Indian) in it in leather mini and boots who would have been worth the entrance fee alone. Generally though, utter cack.

I always thought he was from Wolverhampton with the way he carried off the accent so well

Was a bit of a surprise to hear him speak 'normal'

Dunno, but Moxey turns up in Andor

The Captain (on Amazon Prime)

German filum about a German soldier, 2 weeks before the end of WWII, who finds a SS uniform and then invents a mission and sucks in all those around him and ends up killing loads.  All based on a true story. Proper evil cunt.  

Absolutely brilliant.

Note:  It says the filum is 4 hours long, but it's not.  The same film plays twice, once in black and white and then in colour.

Watched it a couple of years ago. Very good.

Might watch it again over Xmas  👍

Missus wanted to watch The Banshees Of Inisherin. What a load of fucking twaddle. 2/10.

Might be OK if you suffer from insomnia. Beautiful scenery at least.

This years Christmas Eve filum

Had a rare and pleasant moment the other night, watching The Good Liar and completely forgetting what the plot twist was even though I went to see it at the cinema. Turns out it was even better second time around.

Great recommendation, just watched it now.

If anyone does watch it, keep it on until the credits finish.
