The Undoing
(2020)

Mistrial!
Grandpa Sutherland did it at the behest of daughter Kidman.

Decline and Fall
(2017)

Tim Pigott-Smith
This must have been one of the last performances of TPS. Surprised this was not acknowledged in the credits. A great loss of a great actor. First came to my attention in the wonderful adaptation of Paul Scott's "Jewel in the Crown" novels. Admired for many roles since. I had tickets to see him in Northampton this April which sadly had to be returned. Condolences to friends and family.

Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills
(1996)

Tragic beyond tears
This is one of the saddest documentary movies I have ever seen. Three innocent lives lost and three more destroyed, probably at the hands of the same man - John Mark Byers - who is still walking free and probably still spouting the same religious nonsense as that other "righteous" killer,GWB. Flame away. OK, I need to add another eight lines to get my comment published. What happened to brevity being the soul of wit? What about empty vessels making the most sound etc etc? I review (and sometimes write) professional opinions for a living. The quality is usually inversely proportional to the length. Why say in 1000 words what can be conveyed in ten? Have we all become infected with legalese? Back to the documentary. Insightful, objective, interesting, honest - what more can be said. Hope this is enough.

Hush
(1998)

Does Gwynneth hit (or show) bottom?
Probably neither. Difficult to understand all the negative reviews for this enjoyable and well acted movie. Domineering ambitious mothers do exist. Some of their sons, however good looking, are sometimes both stupid and heterosexual.
