this is ii-‘u5 5 “mw understand, this is literally deadly serious, it is so important to pass that on. i want to tonight pay tribute to robert hall, i've met him andi tribute to robert hall, i've met him and i want to pay tribute to him, the work he does for the bbc and the way he approaches his reports is absolutely commendable because it's absolutely commendable because it's a legacy that is very important. that is it for the papers for tonight. thank you benedict and kevin. good to see you both. coming up kevin. good to see you both. coming up next it is the film review and i'll be back tomorrow. goodbye. welcome to the film review on bbc news. and taking us through this week's releases is who else but mark kermode?

mark, what have you got for us this week? a very interesting week. we have paddington 2 which you cannot have missed the adverts for. we have the florida project, a new film by sean baker. and professor marston and the wonder women. so paddington 2, what a great british cast. the first paddington was really lovely and charming. it really surprised everybody. is there any possibility that paddington 2 could live up to it? i went in thinking it can't. it does. it is lovely and charming. the story is paddington wants to buy a present for his great aunt lucy's birthday. there is a pop—up book of london but it is really expensive and he cannot afford it. the book goes missing and the finger or paw of suspicion points at paddington. next thing is he is wrongly behind bars. here's a clip. in the past month these three shadowy individuals have all been seen snooping around three

london landmarks. we think the thief you saw is part of a criminal gang, using the pop—up book as a treasure map. well, it's a theory. have you found out who they are? not yet. maybe i should have a look. i'm sorry, this is a private conversation. it's all right, mr brown. this is my friend, knuckles. and this is fibs, spoon, jimmy the snitch, t—bone, the professor, squeaky pete, double—bass bob, mad dog, johnny cashpoint, sirjeffrey wilcox... i hope i can rely on your vote. and charlie rumble. it's so wonderful to meet you all. it's a relief that paddington has made such sweet friends. would you excuse us for a moment. what are you doing? talking to the nice men. nice men!? we cannot trust these people. look at them, talk about a rogues gallery, hideous. as for that bearded baboon, he hasn't got two brain cells to rub together.

we can still hear you, mr brown. that was the light you turned off. the microphone is on the other side. it's got microphone written on it. you laughed at least four times in that clip! because it's funny! before we went on air you said is itjust a family film, in a way that sort of implied that "just" a family film was... the thing is, making a great family film is really hard. it made me laugh and i'm 5a. it will delight the kids because the character of paddington is so beautifully realised. ben whishaw‘s voice is perfect. there is a mixture of childish and old beyond the years. there are lots of slapstick sequences. paddington is trying to raise money for the book. he gets a job in a barber shop and it goes horribly wrong, involving an overhead fan. there are action sequences that are generally thrilling and seem to put paddington is in peril.

you don't notice the interaction between the cg and the physical world. it was not until the end of the film where i thought they blended it really well. i never thought about paddington being a cg creation. i think making a really good family film is really hard and i thought this was really charming. the fact it was the second one, i expected the law of diminishing returns to kick him, it didn't. the bit where you see the different characters coming in, i think it is really, really funny. i think you would really like it. i suppose what i meant was it's a film you would take the kids to but if you aren't taking the kids? go on your own. the radio five show that i do with simon mayo, we had so many people writing in for the first film saying, i don't have kids, but i want to go and see paddington. is it fine? yes, believe me, the cinema will be full of adults going. it is what a family film used to be. it is for all ages and i think anyone with a heart and soul can enjoy it. looking forward to it.

the florida project, rather different. tipped for oscars? i loved this. the name comes from the name that walt disney developed his community of tomorrow in florida, which then became walt disney world. it is a community of people living in more rundown motels beyond the boundary of the theme park. the motels are called things like the magic castle, but they are essentially rundown hotels where people live on the poverty line. all the purple paint in the world cannot hide the fact they are living in the red. the central character is 6—year—old moony who runs riot around the hotel while her mother struggles to make ends meet, much to the disdain of bobby, the hotel manager, played by willem dafoe. this film portrays a harsh world of economic reality but you see it from the kid's eyes. sean baker's previous film, tangerine, was shot on an iphone. it was shot on a combination of digital and 35 mil. it looks beautiful because we see the wonder that the kids see. you see the strange buildings, the orange of orange world, the strange wizard of the souvenir shop. also the weird break out bits of grass, and trees,

and cows which you don't expect right next to the concrete jungle. you get right into the lives of these people. baker described it as a modern day our gang. it's the idea that the kids are living in poverty in hard circumstances but you're seeing the world through their eyes. there is hardship. there are real tears in this but, as a portrayal of an innocent view of the world, that's also very streetwise and sassy, it is terrific. he never feels like a tourist in this environment. i thought it was touching and moving. it will move you to tears. it will make you laugh. starts with celebration by kool and the gang. that kind of tells you... it is also an ironic use of that phrase, the florida project, which is about the community of tomorrow. well, this is a community of today. it has its feet on the ground, but its head in the air. film three is really intriguing, professor marston and the wonder women. it is all about the creator of the

comic book character wonder woman. we already have the wonder woman movie, which was a record—breaking hit, directed by pattyjenkins. now writer and director angela robinson goes back to the creation of the character. we have the professor of the title played by luke evans. we have his smarter, sharper wife brilliantly played by rebecca hall and bella heathcote‘s olive byrne. between them they invent the lie detector, they start a nonconformist family unit and they come up with the strange, fetishy comic book character who will go on to make millions. here is a look. a comic book? this is perfect. i will inject my ideas right into the thumping heart of america. i'll get a real artist to draw it properly. she's an amazon princess who lives on an island of all women? paradise island. and a man crashes onto the island. yes, the spy. and she wears a burlesque outfit.

it's athletic. and silver bracelets. they deflect bullets. what! ? we love you so much but nobody, and i say this with all the compassion and truth in my heart, nobody will ever publish this. the story flips backwards and forwards. it starts with the child association of america's investigation into this comic strip. they say this is full of spanking, and sex perversions, and bondage. explain yourself. the rest of the film is explaining it it looks back at where this character came from, about the alternative family unit, about the way these people become involved in role—playing and s&m. he is a psychologist who thinks everything comes down to disc theory. dominance, inducement, submission, compliance. the women take him with a pinch of salt. they think he's only partly serious. but it becomes a portrait of tolerance in intolerant times. at one point rebecca hall's

character says we cannot be in love because the world won't let us. he says, we have to be what we want to be. it is a celebration of alternative lifestyles. it is a film about tolerance, it is funny and charming. i didn't know any of this stuff at all. it makes a very interesting double bill with wonder woman, who has become such a huge box office success. i thought it was really well done and i really enjoyed it. it has been a really good week, you can tell. it is, you love everything. best out at the moment? killing of a sacred deer. this is the yorgos lanthimos film and she is very hard to describe. it starts out as a jet—black comedy and then turns really sinister. takes a greek tale of revenge and take it forward from ancient greece to the 21st—century cinema screens. it starts, in that yorgos lanthimos way, being strange and off—kilter and then it moves into horror film territory. i have to say, it is not for everyone. it is a marmite film.

if you lose patience with it, you will lose it big time. i really liked it. i felt really u nco mforta ble all the way through. i couldn't quite get the measure of it. and like mother, i thought it was really well done. it has haunted me and stayed with me. 0k! you are not convinced? i don't think you have convinced anyone with that! best dvd? sorcerer. a0 years ago this film tanked. this is a remake of wages of fear. it came back to cinemas and is still playing in some cinemas in the uk. it is an extraordinary movie. it is gruelling, muscular, visceral, really tense. it is a story about trucks filled with very volatile nitroglycerin being driven across treacherous terrain. it has a celebrated rope bridge sequence. it is one of the tensest things i've ever seen. it has a score by tangerine dream. a0 years ago it opened head—to—head with star wars and star wars won.

people wanted to see light sabres and rocket ships and all that stuff. this was a really tough movie. a0 years later it is recognised as the masterpiece it always was. it is a work of art. i guarantee you, you will be gripped from beginning to end. you had me at a score by tangerine dream! once an old prog, always an old prog. mark, thank you very much. a quick reminder before we go that you'll find more film news and reviews from across the bbc online at bbc.co.uk/markkermode. and you can find all our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. that is it for this week. thank you very much for watching. goodbye from us. this is how we start of remembrance

at sunday, cloudy with some outbreaks of rain down to the south oi’ outbreaks of rain down to the south or stop clearer skies and wintry showers to the far north with temperatures at just a showers to the far north with temperatures atjust a couple of degrees above freezing. hold a continuing south across the whole of england and wales as we go through remembrance sunday. we could see a scattering of showers early. for the midlands and maybe into the south—east but hopefully they will ease away in time for remembrance sunday service at. elsewhere, if you are heading for services, most likely chances of showers through wales and one or two into south—west england. cold but nevertheless some good spells of sunshine. a few isolated showers across the east coast of northern ireland and one or

two through the northern isles and the far north of scotland, some will have a wee treat flavour. accompanied by a brisk north to north—westerly breeze. so is continuing in wales and south—west england through the day. sandwiched between the date, dry and sunny but cold. as we move out of remembrance sunday into monday, it will turn colder still with high—pressure quite mean things down and killing off the showers. another hard frost from monday morning with temperatures in rural parts of scotla nd temperatures in rural parts of scotland down to minus five. that is important because we are expecting more cloud and rain pushing in. we could see some snow, maybe some significant snow so we will need to keep an iron that. more straightforward further south, clouding over, largely dry and not particularly warm. the weather front

continuing to push south and east into tuesday, introducing milder weather but also the potential for some light rain. we start the new week cold and frosty but turning milder with some more rain to come. take care. this is bbc news. our top stories: face to face, president trump says he believes vladimir putin when he says russia didn't meddle in the us elections. the husband of a british—iranian woman injail in tehran has told the bbc after repeated requests to meet with the british foreign secretary, he will now meet with him on sunday. catalans have been demonstrating in barcelona, calling for the release of pro—independence politicians detained by the spanish courts. and a british woman detained in egypt on suspicion of smuggling prescription painkillers learns
