Directed by his own son who delivers an in depth and emotional story that supporters of any team should appreciate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 I May Destroy You [2020 TV limited series] The question of sexual consent, liberation and exploitation. Visually impressive limited TV series with an imposing strong lead that holds this together as the story line wanders and appears a tad preachy, there is a memorably surreal last episode to make it worth the wait. More style than anything substantial, good when the mood suits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Surge [2020] Set over 24 hours in London, a stripped back psychotic thriller about a man who goes on a reckless journey of self-liberation from his mundane airport security job. Shot in an immersive tightly cropped format, the powerful lead performance takes us on an adrenaline fueled rush of a madman, depressing and exciting the story is not that clear, but the surge is real.

Mekong Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 A Touch of Cloth UK Police Series from 2012 - 2014. The title is a play on a Touch of Frost and any Brit will tell you that touching cloth means being close to shitting oneself. It is as funny as fuck, with sarcasm, innuendos and double entendres constantly in your face, I haven’t laughed so much in a long while. If you like British humour, well worth a look see.

paul101 Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 Poly Styrene an 'Icon' ? seems the bar gets set lower for icons and geniuses all the time! Golden Life the Hungarian 3 series family crime drama is good, Thailand gets the odd mention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was due to the fact she was the first (in)famous female punks in the UK. The “Grandparents” of Punk are both American, Patti Smith and Iggy Pop.
