Arabs in the Midst

Attended this premiere of a documentary that explores the perceptions of Arab people in the UK. Made by a local guy, he travels around the country interviewing people about how they feel Arabs are potrayed etc as well as their feelings about being integrated or not into communities in the UK.

Psycho 2

Norman is back.Ok it took 22 years before he was released and starred in this sequel but it was worth the wait. I remember going to the movies to see this in Bradford at the ABC and although it’s maybe not the best film in the world I love that house… Perkins is great as […]

Sideways

This is a great movie. It’s a kind of mid-life crisis road movie, with wine tasting.It’s one of those rare treats that’s a great movie and doesn’t pretend to be anything more than that. Well deserved of the recent Oscar nominations etc – let’s hope it does well… UGC CinemaColour*****.

The plot follows a cheerleader who goes out with the quarterback from the football team at high school […]
