Wes Anderson’s “Moonrise Kingdom” is pure joy. What’s more, it does something nearly impossible in cinema: It captures innocence. The scene is set at an Atlantic Coast island called Summer’s End. It’s like Tom Sawyer’s Island at Disneyland, a bucolic reserve with paths but no actual roads and plenty of forests, fields, coastal inlets and… Read more »

13 Assassins – Review
The story of 13 Assassins is rather simple. A group of samurai in feudal Japan secretly plot to kill a brutal, viscous lord. But the distance between this revelation and its ultimate conclusion is rather vast. In between there are rich, complex characters, stunning action sequences and thoughtful drama – all set to a film… Read more »
Casablanca – Review
As time goes by, the appeal of Casablanca shows no sign of diminishing. Originally intended as a WWII propaganda movie, it remains a marvellous blend of bittersweet romance, wisecracking comedy and wartime intrigue. Wonderfully acted by its cast, it’s the story of a laconic nightclub-owner Rick (Humphrey Bogart), whose life in Casablanca is shaken up… Read more »

I haven’t read any of the growingly-popular novels by Norwegian author Jo Nesbo (whose reputation has grown in… Read more »
Untouchable – Monday 6th May 7:45pm
If you are sceptical about French films, don’t be for this one … it is a must see film, my personal favourite of 2012. I know that I am a little bit late to the party celebrating the film “Intouchable*” but better late than never.. It has heart, humour, hope and in the end happiness…. Read more »
Silver Linings Playbook – Monday 8th April 7:45pm
There are few films that hit home to the degree Silver Linings Playbook does. The filmmakers and cast seem to have an excellent working knowledge of mental health, specifically Bipolar Disorder (which in itself is a complex task). But never once is the illness put before the person and that is what makes Silver Linings… Read more »

The film won the Jury Prize at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival The Angels ‘Share starts off… Read more »
