The Session Man (2023)

About the legendary Nick Hopkins. Interviews with him, his wife, Mick Jagger, Harry Shearer(!), Bill Wyman, many others. Fascinating and moving.

He died much too young of Crohn's disease.

"The League of Gentlemen" 1960 movie

Very British movie. Ex army officers on hard times decide to rob a bank. Looks like the perfect crime but the cops are onto them and surround their house and persuade them to come outside and surrender.They have an old drunk with them, not connected to the robbery who also gets thrown in the Police van.

"Village of the Damned" 1960 Spoiler

I love these low budget British films. VOtD is very eerie and unsettling. All of a quaint English Village fall pregnant on the same day and give birth to very scary children who can read minds.

This is the final scene where a brave teacher decides to destroy the new generation and brings a bomb in, the kids know he is hiding something.

MoodDreams Review X BFI London Film Festival: MOUSE by Alex Thompson

Lifelong friends Callie and Minnie are like ying and yang: one loud and popular, the other shy and quiet. Abruptly forced out from her friend’s shadow, it’s finally time for Minnie to figure out who she is on her own terms. Kupferer and Okonedo’s performances drive this beautiful film that’s guaranteed to have audiences alternating between crying and laughing out loud.

If....... (1968)

9 Upvotes

Strange movie but very good.Malcolm McDowell is a rebel in a very strict and posh boarding school. Directed by Lindsay Anderson and really shows the brutality of public schools in the 60s.

This scene is where MM and his friend go into town to steal a motorcycle, they call in a cafe and this ensues. The glorious music is "Sanctus" from the Missa Luba, a rendering of the Roman Latin mass sung to an African beat by a Congolese choir.

The film switches between BW and Colour, I used to think it was making a point but then somebody else said it was down to production costs, not sure? but great old Brit film.

"Night of the Demon" 1957 Horror movie.

114 Upvotes

This film truly terrified me when I was a child, great storyline and characters, cast include Dana Andrews and Niall McGinnis.

Skeptical American psychologist Dr. John Holden travels to England to investigate a colleague's mysterious death. He clashes with cult leader Julian Karswell, who passes him a cursed runic parchment. Holden must race against time to pass the parchment back before a terrifying fire demon slays him

The ending is superb. Think its probably free on YT or somewhere, great film to watch on a cold October evening !

MoodDreams Review X BFI London Film Festival: Tropical Fractals by Leonardo Pirondi

Interview: Ivo Müller - Actor

A small crew of Brazilian archivists are tasked with preserving Earth’s final living remnants and their digital copies in preparation for the planet’s extinction, while a solitary figure wanders its desolate landscape. Elliptically structured, yet meticulously composed, Pirondi’s grainy Super 16mm images lend a tactile immediacy to this speculative world, imagining the future through the material textures of the present.

The boys receive some northern hospitality in the "Slaughtered Lamb" pub, awkward, then Brian Glover tells a joke. Love this movie, absolute classic.
