Re: Hidden Figures

What a super inspiring and must see film. I'm still shocked how some people don't recognise that any kind of segreation makes no sense whatsoever. The fight African Americans have had and are still having is a disgrace. This story was not long ago at all, 1960s! How strong and determined were these ...

Re: I, Daniel Blake

usually a fan of Ken Loach's work. But this time around it was a bit lazy: lets cut n paste stories spun by the Labour Party etc. (forgetting they were all part of this too). Just make a party politician broadcast and have been done with it, Ken! In truth you could have made this film, in the 50s ...

Re: Green Room

I loved Blue Ruin, but Yes Green Room was well made in a technical sense; it was tense, at moments although I could not really care for any of the characters and what happened to them, and it was obvious who was going to survive. Most of all I found all rather pointless and self indulgent. Yes, the ...

Re: Eye in the Sky

What an infuriatingly frustrating film. Yes, I get it, it's much more difficult to pull the trigger when you can see the face of the innocent little girl that is most likely going to be killed as well, as opposed to the 80 or so people whose life you'll be saving, because you can't see their faces ...

Re: Free Theatre/Concert Tickets Discussion Thread

From what I understand the theatres have not been demanding fees. RSC traditionally charges a ticket price and these are openly advertised. From what I understand the west end theatres were just concerned that hundreds upon hundreds were turning up; hence the FB was dramatically scaled back to a ...

Re: Free Theatre/Concert Tickets Discussion Thread

Would appreciate knowing how to find out about understudy rehearsals in London. Are they still being done? Understudy performances or dress rehearsals? Both are very necessary and are undoubtedly "still being done". Public dress rehearsals would normally be advertised by the theatre whereas ...

Re: Eddie The Eagle

Okay, it wasn't the greatest of films - seemed dated (maybe deliberate to reflect the 80s) and lacked imagination in its story telling - but it was full of heart and had a few good laughs. Seems quite appropriate given the true life story on which it was based. Was at the Islington VUE: to the two ...

Re: Marguerite

No idea why with a title like marguerite was I surprised that it was in foreign and with writing on it! D'oh. I mean it's not like it was called Maggie or something. Only mildly annoyed by this, but only because the subtitles were very low on the screen, and some big tall held bloke plonked himself ...
