Wolverine as a character is one of the best around. Brilliantly played by Hugh Jackman

The first 2 X-Men films and Logan were great as was Days of Future Past but the third in the orignal X-men films and X-Men Origins Wolverine were not so good

The Banshees of Inisherin. The blackest of black comedies - bleak is an understatement.
Great performances all round and beautiful to look at, thoroughly recommended.

You didn't enjoy the charm of holland? Really enjoyed the games so was looking forward to it
Loved the cameo from the voice actor from the game

Sure most N. Of The Border will have seen this but “ Sunshine on Leith“ is exceptional. Peter Mullan who was in Tommy‘s Honour is in it and for any Proclaimers Fans it is a must see. How the songs are blended into the story is very clever.

A couple of Danish films recently, both starring Mads Mikkelsen, both utterly superb.
First was Another Round, great film about a bunch of teachers who get tipsy ?
Next up was Riders Of Justice, a sort of revenge/black comedy type film, brilliant, better than the above film I’d say ?

Watched Sink the Bismarck (1960) yesterday evening. An excellent film (Kenneth More doing his usual splendid military part) about a crucial event in the battle for the North Atlantic especially.
What struck me about the ending was how quite graphically the plight of the German seamen beneath the Bismark’s decks as the ship went down was shown - and on the other side how emotionless and absolutely non-celebratory the British officers on the bridge of the KGV were shown to be as they watched on as the Bismarck went down - even though so very many of their fellow British seamen were lost by the Bismarck sinking of the Hood - they just knew of the horror. There was no great sense of joy or pleasure in what they had just done.
Reflecting afterwards how oddly near in time it seemed to me when I was a lad…my dad bought me an Airfix model of the Tirpitz (sister ship of Bismarck) when I was about 10 - only 27yrs after Bismarck was sunk - and of course as he was in the Merchant Navy in Atlantic and Med convoys during the war these battleships were very real to him.

My father-in-law was a Royal Marine on board HMS Rodney, operating the guns when they engaged Bismarck. Spoke very little about it and what he did was very matter of fact; he never showed any pleasure or joy in it, it was just what had to be done at the time.
Mrs BiM took him to the Imperial War Museum some years ago for a function where he met a German sailor; no malice towards each other, almost like a couple of old mates meeting, both knowing that the malice of one side towards another was that of their country's leader & not those engaged in the conflict.
