Play review - "All My Sons" by Arthur Miller

 I probably like it more than Death of a Salesman even though it's not as skilled or well written simply because it's more of a mystery. Strong drama, powerful, builds well.

Movie review - "Wuthering Heights" (2026) ****

 Great fun. A real vision. Vivid. Margot superb, Jacob fine, Alison Oliver and Martin Clunes outstanding. 

Movie review - "Pressure" (2026) ****

 Fantastic "dad" cinema. "It's gonna rain on Monday!" "No it's not." They make it work. So relatable - who hasn't had to cancel something because of the weather. I like that they used Kay Summersby and that they had a Brit white anted by an American prick but also an American white anted by a British prick (Montgomery). Great fun.

Movie review - "Wicked: For Good" (2025) ***

 Classy but not as compelling. No big character changes. Ariana Grande seems unwell. Some great moments like Dorothy and the water.

Movie review - "Eternity" (2026) ***1/2

 Sweet. Clever. Drags in the middle. Not sure what they could do - maybe dig more into character, or the support characters (who are cheerleaders). Miles Teller excellent - a very believable older working class character. The other actors solid. Tackles big themes.

Movie review - "Moss and Freud" (2026) **

 Could they make a movie out of this? Not really. Not enough story. Might do better as a TV play or a stage where the lead actress got nude. Derek Nimmo is excellent as the most interesting character. Ellie Bambeur does her best. New Zealand finance.

Movie review - "Michael" (2026) **

 That scene involving Michael Jackson and the lawyer (Miles Teller) is an abomination and everyone responsible should have had to spend some time in movie prison. The rest is fine. Bringing in Mike Myers shows a certain contempt for the audience. The filmmakers did the best they could. Great concert footage and a winning performance from MJ and the dad. Everyone else is a saint. Mum. The lawyer. Siblings. The bodyguard...?
