and putting you off fluffy robes for life, we seek a cure for wellness in a swiss alpine spa. so, let's start with patriots day. it is the story of the 2013 boston marathon bombing and the manhunt afterwards? yes, the aftermath. it gripped the world. there was this extraordinary bombing of the boston marathon, which takes place on patriots day. it is a well known national event. it was bombed by two brothers. their names were on everyone‘s lips in 2013. everyone remembers, the brothers that escaped. they had to shut the city down looking for the brothers. one was holed up in a boat in someone else‘s backyard. the strangely human story of this wanton destruction that they wrought. the film is put together in a classic disaster film fashion. the people assembling for the big day of the boston marathon, and including mark wahlberg as a cop.

then there is the kevin bacon, the fbi man, and john goodman with his strange eyebrows. you're not any closer to identifying the guys that we're really looking for. we have to release the pictures. if we release the pictures now it's out of our control. gentlemen, if i may, right now, boston is working against us. right now, in this city, when it comes to terrorism, everyone wants to talk. there are a lot of people talking, but talking about the wrong people. release the pictures of our guys, sit back and listen. trust me. start letting boston work for us, i'm telling you. i understand, boston. but i can't snap my fingers on this, the decision goes up to the attorney general.

this is mine, rick. release the god damn pictures. it was a terrible tragedy. recent. it is difficult to make a hollywood film about such a tragedy so recently? and the director has been faithful as much as he can and to those affected by the tragedy and injured, the people with the amputations. the people at the end of the film discussing how they put their lives back together. it's a healing process for the town of boston. there is mark wahlberg, a poster boy for boston. it's a strange film. it is all about boston. what it does not do is examine the motives of the brothers, who out of nowhere caused this carnage. while it does feature them, they go in their homes and feature their wives, but it does not probe the motives. that is the fear.

how can the renegade terrorists provoke such a carnage and bring the city to its knees? that is more interesting for me. so it was a bit hurrah, this film for me. the clip that we saw, it looked like a thriller. does it have that element? that tension of a thriller? i call it a procedural. it is very much of the safety of the american citizens, protected by the great policemen and the ambulance service. they will track down the killers, the media helping. although they look hapless, as the brothers led them a merry dance for 89 hours and ended up hiding in someone‘s boat. it is slightly ridiculous, without the humour and the absurdity as to what terrorism can do. it is dangerous, it is called patriots day, so it's very american and up—thumping, but it loses something because of that, because it is about people who wanted to be anti—american. i wanted them to explore that more darkly than it does. let's move on to george best. a great footballer. beautiful to watch him play.

then in his later life, so sad, really. he became an alcoholic. is this a good film? this is a documentary. we have seen many films of him. the popping of the champagne, the dazzling eyes. he was the first boutique footballer. but footballers have changed. football has changed. it does not look like this anymore. but he was whippy, incandescent, he had it all by 22, but washed up and retired by 27. it is put together like a shakespearean tragedy. sitting on the side lines, despairing and sad.

the only person who is not sad is george best. he seems happy with his lot. there is a shot where someone runs in, saying, "besty, besty, where did it go wrong?" he is lying on a bed with miss world, and the money. he didn't want people's help. he didn't want people's love. that is why it is sad to watch. as an audience member you want to reach out to this man and love him. he doesn't want it, he rejects it, preferring to disappear into the booze. i think that is what is sad. it is well put together. it is a little dour, in that it lacks the light of george best's feet. all right. now, a cure for wellness. this is about a young executive, who is sent to retrieve his company's ceo from the swiss alps from a spa?

yes, this arrogant young man goes to a spa and there are people wearing fluffy robes and white suits. i am very wary of people in these suits, with clip boards and clipped accents. let's look at this along the corridors of uncertainty with jason isaacs. hey! what are you doing here? sorry, i don't understand. what are you doing here? take it easy. it's ok. mr lockhart, every time i turn around you are somewhere you are not supposed to be. i guess i'm lost. time trying to find my way back to my room. this is a restricted floor. there are signs everywhere, surely you did not come down here by accident.

what exactly are you looking for? i had a problem with my tooth. your tooth? actually it is feeling much better. if you can point me in the direction of my room. nonsense, we can't let you get an infection. you must let us talk care of you. after all, that's why you're here... menacing! yes, if you don't like dentists, don't watch the next bit. who does like the dentist? well, ever since marathon man. there are lots of old contraptions in this spa, like the 19505 with the medicine ball, and the tanks with the eels. it is like a bond villain hideaway.

very pastiche. it is a recipe for disaster as to what was going on. a complete mess of a film. how long? 2.5 hours, it is quite a lot. what is best out at the moment? well, a cure for wellness, but also moonlight. it is a beautiful, tender, poetic coming of age story, told about the life of a black boy from miami, from a little boy to a man. it is about his life and his tender growing sexuality. realising who he is. it is about identity and identity politics. it is a new sort of cinema. it has eight 0scar nominations. that takes us nicely to the oscars. almost upon us? i loved moonlight. the budget was 8.5. it has the chance of becoming the smallest film ever to win best picture.

it is a bit like leicester. it stands a chance of dislodging the favourite, la la land. my favourite. i know that there is a backlash, people saying it is overhyped with the 1a nominations going to the oscars. i don't think it will win all 1a. but there could be a tidy haul for it. it is good for hollywood. rebooted for a new generation. people are going to it thinking that they will see singing in the rain. but it is a modern indy film with singing and dancing. what about best actress, best actor? well, i think that the best actor will not go to ryan gosling but to casey affleck. there is also a threat from denzel washington in fences. and best actress i think will go to emma stone. that is sewn into her dress. i think that the best picture

will go to la la land. i think maybe moonlight could do it, but those directors could become the best director winners. and maybe a screenplay for moonlight and one for manchester by the sea. let's see how many of them you get right. i'm sure all of them. that's it for this week. don't forget you can catch up on our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. thanks for watching. goodbye. spring isjust spring is just around the corner but when i say that, i mean meteorological spring which starts on the 1st of march, so we have just

got a few days of winter left. how is it looking, this weekend? relatively mild, very changeable. into march things will cool off a little bit and the weather will remain changeable. as far as saturday and sunday is concerned we will see whether france pushing through the uk, here is saturday, the front ‘s moving through, extensive cloud, outbreaks of rain, most of the rain across the western parts of the uk. these are miles south—west of the serie we are talking about temperatures into double figures and most of the uk. the most amount of rainfall is expected to fall across cumbria and lancashire, the rain will wax and rain throughout the weekend so overall, this portion of the uk, will be getting most of the rainfall. a fairly chilly start to sunday, and dry with some sunshine across many central and eastern and southern areas. very quickly linked to this low—pressure, whether france

will come zooming in. increasing winds, even gayle full swing is particularly around the south western approaches, the rsc very windy on the coastline, and we have got those outbreaks of rain. the heaviest rain across the north—western areas where the further east you are on sunday the further east you are on sunday the further south, the better the weather will be. a very breezy sunday, it looks like it will be a very breezy and changeable monday with low—pressure sitting on top of us. with low—pressure sitting on top of us. a very unsettled day, one of those days where b will have bright sunshine and dark cloud, maybe some dram lightning, all sorts. quite a dramatic day in terms of the sky, we will see scenes like this and then we will see rainbows and pack of thunder and hale at times as well. the kind of april showers by the lot lot earlier still in february. as far as the second half of the week is concerned, this big load is

hanging around and is not moving anywhere, it does look as though by the time we get to tuesday, though showers will start to keys, there will be more of them on monday but still if you left over for sure. then we are into wednesday, the 1st of march, the first day of meteorological spring. the reason why we pick the 1st of march is because we like to work in blocks of three when we average out the season. of three when we average out the season. march, april, may is spring. so here it is, the 1st of march, the first day of meteorological spring. across central and eastern areas, we have got yet another weather front pushing its way. inevitably there will be some rain. there will be a pattern in the jet stream, typically cold air to the north of the jet stream. we are kind of going to be on the cold side of this jet stream

and it is quite a powerfuljet strea m and it is quite a powerfuljet stream and it could well be sending some pretty nasty areas of low pressure. but i think suffice to say i think it will be unsettled start to march. there will be rain around, but because we are on a cold side of the jet there will certainly be some chilly weather. tonight at ten, theresa may hails a historic victory for the conservatives in copeland, as they sweep labour aside. they've got a lot to celebrate — pulling off the first by—election win for a party in power in 35 years. this is an astounding victory for the conservative party, but also for the people of copeland. you know, labour have held this seat since the 1930s. meanwhile labour did hold on to stoke central, seeing off a challenge by ukip. it's a message about the economy, it's a message about jobs, it's a message about this country. but above all it was a message that hope triumphs over fear. we'll be asking why ukip

failed to win in stoke, an area which voted strongly to leave the eu. also tonight.
