weeks cinema releases is mark kermode. what have you been watching, mark? very, very interesting week. we have bingo: the king of the mornings, a film about the dark side of clowning. we have, of course, star wars: the lastjedi, you might have noticed that this is opening in cinemas! and a low—key british! , the unseen. bingo: the king of the mornings, this is a really curious looking one? very interesting one, submitted for the foreign—language oscar although it has not made it through to the short list. it comes across as a cross between the chuckle brothers and the last third of goodfellas. it is inspired by a real—life story of eight kids tv icon, this is a fictionalised version in which there is struggling actor who has made his name in soft—core sex films and manages to get a break as bingo, this cloud on morning television, and realises that he may actually have found something for which he

can become celebrated and famous. the downside is, he is not allowed to say who he is, he has to be com pletely to say who he is, he has to be completely anonymous, so he is caught between fame and anonymity. however he wants to stretch his wings and see what he can do with the role. here's a clip. now, you can see from that, it has got a strange turn to it, it is a fantastic performance i vladimir brichta as bingowhat i like about it is that it has a bit of the backstage madness of live television, something like network. it also has that sense as in accelerate, in that success goes to his head, he falls into drink and drugs and reckless behaviour, but he is tortured because he can't tell anyone who he is. it becomes that classic tale of someone who is famous in one area and completely anonymous and another. it is not without flaws, there are certain moments when the drama oversteps itself somewhat, but i didn't know this story at all, it is inspired by a true story, and ifound it

gripping and weirdly enjoyable, not least because there is something... amine, clowns are a strange presence anyway... could go either way! and we saw the success of what has now become the biggest selling horror movie of all time. so, this is something about different, it is not entirely successful but when it works, it has a kind of crazed energy, which is down to the central performance largely, which is very, very magnetic. and apparently there isa very magnetic. and apparently there is a new star wars film out of! they should do some publicity, really. are you a fan? to a degree, i lived with someone who really, really is, so with someone who really, really is, so it is on the list. this ticks up where the last one left off. arriving on the island and she is looking for her true self. the thing with any star wars film is that there is a balancing at. light and there is a balancing at. light and the shade, between the action and the shade, between the action and the introspection and also between satisfying the fans and the first timers. i think that ryan johnson

has done a fantasticjob, and ukip all the stuff that you want from a star wars film, the sabre battles, the deep space explosions, the dogfights, but you also get an awful lot of internal character develop and. what i liked most about this is that it has a number of disparate narrative strands, as they all do, but each character arc is followed through properly. it is a film in which characters do what that character would do. it's a film in which action is character, characters are defined not by what they say but by their actions. now, i saw it with a home crowd, i saw it at the premiere and in the final act of it, people were laughing, cheering, bursting into spontaneous applause. my suspicion is that that will be marched around the country, because it's very well—made, very confident, there is a little baggy nest in it, there is one section which i think is perhaps somewhat overstretched, but i think it works really well as a film. that said all

star wars films have a divisive element. and nothing is going to satisfy everybody. i have never been a hard—core star wars fan but i did enjoy this very much. i thought as a piece of masterful storytelling in which it obeys the rules of the characters, the characters make sense. it may be fantastical and inventive but the characters make sense, and that, for me, is the key. and does it look fantastic? 0h, sense, and that, for me, is the key. and does it look fantastic? oh, yes, it looks fantastic. in a way we sort of ta ke it looks fantastic. in a way we sort of take that for granted. it looks really great, but it also feels really great, but it also feels really solid. it feels like a proper, you know, well—made, stand—alone film. proper, you know, well—made, stand-alone film. that's excellent. the unseen, it is nearly christmas — have you brought me another horror film, is this what you are doing? this is a psychological chiller. what is the distinction?! broom stick with me, this was 12 years in

development, it is a young couple who suffered a terrible loss of a child and after that, their relationship is in crisis. the character played by jasmine relationship is in crisis. the character played byjasmine hyde is having panic attacks, and with those panic attacks come strange fits of blindness. meanwhile, her partner is haunted by the voice of the child. here's a clip. i hear ihear him. i hear him. where? in this room. i hear him. when? at night. sometimes during the day. you don't believe

me. what does he say? he says he loves me... now, you were asking what the difference is between a horror film what the difference is between a horrorfilm and what the difference is between a horror film and a chiller. what the difference is between a horrorfilm and a chiller. i think it isa horrorfilm and a chiller. i think it is a tenuous distension, however, it is a tenuous distension, however, it is a tenuous distension, however, it is to do with a sense of creepiness. in its early stages, this film is actually very, very what a common very well played by the central actors. and it has a real atmosphere of unease, of the uncanny, which is very hard to achieve. i have to say in its later stages it kind of loses some of that, the more the plot starts to explain itself, the more mechanical it becomes and the less it became interesting. but for its first movement, it does establish that sense of the cold hand on the back of the net. the genuinely uncanny sense that you're not quite sure what's going on. you believe in the characters, you believe in the situation. and you share their

distress. but you also have that sense we're in is, that sense of unease. it's a very flawed film, and i think overall, as i said, there are missteps in the later acts that let it down. but at the beginning it has an atmosphere which i think validates it, and it is really nice to see something like that going up against a behemoths like star wars: the lastjedi. and it's not a horror film. 0k! the lastjedi. and it's not a horror film. ok! i may bejust saying the lastjedi. and it's not a horror film. ok! i may be just saying that, but it's not a horror film! next, of the rerelease of a classic. but it's not a horror film! next, of the rerelease of a classiclj but it's not a horror film! next, of the rerelease of a classic. i think this is one of the greatest movies ever made, a matter of life and death. when was the last time you saw it on a big screen? when i was at university, 300 years ago. i love that image of wind therein have an,

looking down. you need to see it on the big screen, the idea of having the big screen, the idea of having the other world as being black—and—white, and the technicolor, so gorgeous, the performances are brilliant. and every time you see it, itjust gets better and better and better. and incidentally, that is a film which you can view as a fantasy or you can view as a psychological, you know, psychological romance. i would say it's not a million miles away from... i'm trying! it is fantastic, it is wonderful, worth seeing on a big screen, you make a good point, i haven't seen it on a for aeons. on the smaller screen, dvds... dunkirk. acquired in visit watching it on a small screen? i have seen it twice ona small screen? i have seen it twice on a big imax screen and wants on a television screen, although the television screen, although the television screens are now much bigger. when you see it on a small screen, you start to notice things about the cleverness of the structure, the fact that it has

these three interweaving time periods and the fact that it into weaves them so well, sometimes on the big screen you're just so overwhelmed by the spectacle of it, don't realise just how smart the construction of the film is. watching it on a smaller screen you really admire the narrative... it is a simple narrative but it is told in a simple narrative but it is told in a way which is really complex and really crystalline. and actually i saw things in it on the small screen that i hadn't seen on the big screen. yes, the big—screen experience is still the primary one but it does work on the small screen, for different reasons. mark, good to see you as ever. interesting week. all our previous programmes are on the bbc iplayer, of course. enjoy your cinema going! goodbye!

it is good weather for being in a one cinema tonight. still some showers around and those across eastern parts of england are probably going to retreat back to the coasts. we are looking at some showers in northern ireland, the western fringes of wales. fewer showers, though, in scotland, where temperatures are already falling quite choppy. down to —6 in rural areas. not many showers by the morning but we will see more cloud and some showers coming into northern ireland and moving over the irish sea into wales and the south—west later on. further easter crossed england it will be dry and bright with sunshine. likewise across much of scotland, but here it is going to be cold. for all of us, temperatures will be rising on sunday. we have got a stronger south—westerly wind this time and it comes with cloud and outbreaks of rain, although scotland and northern ireland turn drier later.

this week say the children were the best of friends. the children were aged between three and 15. their mother, who survived, remains in a coma and knows nothing of what happened. how can i turn round and say they've gone? i can't even turn round and say one's gone. all her young ‘uns, all her babies have gone. the police say the fire was a targeted attack. three people have been charged with murder. the family say the mother had called the police before and that night claiming the family was being harrassed. also tonight: eu leaders give the official go—ahead for the brexit talks to proceed to the next stage. ajudge calls for an inquiry after a student is acquitted of rape because police failed to disclose evidence which could have cleared him. how an appearance on bbc news meant this man with learning difficulties,
