have read the novel and i like it. high courtjudge whose work is involved in her life, she is involved in her life, she is involved in her life, she is involved in matters of life and death, very complicated cases, one of which is about a boy who is 17 yea rs old of which is about a boy who is 17 years old and is refusing a blood infusion on religious grounds. there are immense about whether or not he is being forced into this position by his parents, these are weighty philosophical issues. when she comes home, she brings to work home with her and her husband, played by sta nley her and her husband, played by stanley tucci, is starting to feel shut out of their marriage. he is equipped. —— here is a clip. shut out of their marriage. he is equipped. -- here is a clip. when we we re equipped. -- here is a clip. when we were kings and wine and i can get some pretty good to saturday night. no, iam some pretty good to saturday night. no, i am due tojudge all we can. you can't switch it? no, two judgements in one day. what?

you can't switch it? no, two judgements in one day. what7|j judgements in one day. what?|j nothing, judgements in one day. what?” nothing, it isjust like last weekend and the 50 weekends before that. well, that is how it is. yes, yes. look, i do not know how to say this but here it is. i think... i think i wa nt but here it is. i think... i think i want to have an affair. yeah. sta nley want to have an affair. yeah. stanley tucci is terrific. here is. iama big stanley tucci is terrific. here is. i am a big fan of his. the way he says yes is really, really well done. i have to say that emma thompson i am a huge fan of any when she is really great. it is hard to think of any other people who could carry this role. what then happens is that as part of this case of having to about the 17—year—old boy

who does not want to have the blood infusion, she makes the decision to go into the hospital to see him, which is unusual. in that encounter with him spark something, it will be aware of those ideas of a very short encounter coming to mean something much more. what the film is really about is about the way in which her marriage is sort of falling apart and it is somewhere else in her life, something else in all these things are colliding. what i like about the film is that it is not judgemental about the characters, i think it is a very good portrayal of people being shut out of their marriage by work. i also think that it deals in a very sort of sensible way with some very complex issues, however, i think the performances are better than the film itself. i think there are moments, there is one, ina think there are moments, there is one, in a lot of emma thompson's performance is very restrained. —— i mean, she telegraphs a lot, but there's also a in which she has a

kind of emotional breakdown, which reminded me of the scene in love actually in which he goes off to the bedroom. yes. however, there are also moments which reminds me of love actually not a good way, there are moments in which i think the drum is melodramatic, doesn't work. it is really well played and i would certainly recommend seeing it for those performances alone, i think there are some problems with the writing and the writing can feel a little bit staid. —— drama. writing and the writing can feel a little bit staid. -- drama. and they wonder how filmic it is because i was reading the novel, i thought you could see this as an intelligent drama, ina could see this as an intelligent drama, in a good way, when i was reading it. that is a real interest in point because there are definitely point is watching it when television is the kind of point you get watching it. there are moments in it we think this is not coming to life as a film, but that is balanced by the fact the performances are so good. evenjust

by the fact the performances are so good. even just watching that clip, i could were enjoying it. you could see how well those relationships... and i have not seen the full screening because i was told that would end in divorce because we both have to go and see it, so we are still going. it is worth seeing, just have reservations about the writing and directing, but no reservations about seeing it. all right, well, it is on my list to see it. alpha. this is from the director of did residence, which is a real overlook masterpiece. set 27 years ago, the young man has not yet learnt to kill, he is on a hunting trip and is lost and left for dead. he befriends one of the wolves and thenit he befriends one of the wolves and then it becomes a story of a boy and his dog on a quest to get back home, there are some remarkable things about it, certainly in terms of the visuals. what dialogue there is is subtitled but it is really a bit of

visual storytelling and visually, it is very arresting. there are moments in it in which it kind of, it wanders a little bit off the beaten track and becomes slightly almost hallucinate in, which i do think is a very talented director. however, it has to be said, i think this has been sitting around for about a year. —— hallucinatory. there was something troubling as well about animal rights on the set. it has had kind of a strange journey to the screen. it is the story of a boy and his dog on a quest and that happens to bea his dog on a quest and that happens to be a story that i am a sucker for. well, i am too, as you know. so i'm going to enjoy that one. and goodness, new spike lee, tell us all. well, he is back in form. this is based on a stranger than fiction story, based on a black police

officer who in 1970s story, based on a black police officer who in i970sjoins story, based on a black police officer who in i970s joins the police force and he decides to try to infiltrate the ku klux klan. he phones at the number and says i am a white supremacist and i want to join the ku klux klan, they believe him, and he works himself right up to the grand wizard. and he works himself right up to the grand wiza rd. they and he works himself right up to the grand wizard. they have to get someone grand wizard. they have to get someone else to go in as him, so what they do is they get his partner to go in, and he says i will do the voice on the phone, you do it in person. they have initially very different attitudes to the case, here's a look. i am risking my life to stop some rednecks and setting a couple of set on fire... that is the job, what is the problem. that is the problem. the media is a job, for you it is personal. it is not personal, nor should it be. why aren't you buying into this? what do

some light—skinned —— that is what some light—skinned —— that is what some light—skinned —— that is what some light—skinned black folks do, they passed the white.” some light—skinned black folks do, they passed the white. i thought was really good, it was a film of balancing acts, the central balancing acts, the central balancing acts, the central balancing act was between human and horror. it was produced byjordan hill, he made it out, which of course is a horrorfilm hill, he made it out, which of course is a horror film that was submitted to one of the awards as a comedy and spike lee says this is a documentary. this brings it right up to date with charlottesville, it is very, very contemporary. the issue with the ku klux klan and white supremacist is very, very contemporary. that is what you would expect, given the suspect. it is based on some a—wheel stuff, you can hardly believe this stuff happened. it takes the story and fictionalises it what does is in much the same way

as it out, it balances those two elements and the balancing act to have to says billy dunn. i think this is spike lee's best film since four little girls because it is very ha rd to four little girls because it is very hard to get that balance right. there were moments on the screen in which people were belly laughing and moments in which people were hiding their faces because you are dealing is really, profoundly disturbing stuff. —— get out. and it is an angry film, stuff. —— get out. and it is an angryfilm, a stuff. —— get out. and it is an angry film, a film which although it is set in the i970s, it feels urgently contemporary. i love the look of it, i love the fact that it feels like a film made in i970s. there are kind of visual cues for it, and the performances are really great. john david washington is brilliant in carrying this drama. and again that, he is also saw the balancing the humour and horror. —— the centre. i thought it was remarkable and i really like it.” certainly like what you have chosen as best. you're back to mamma mia,

you cannot give it up. i sobbed, i stopped. i know. what makes it so brilliant years if it did not have that emotional sucker punch, he would not be half the film that it is. it is not dusty smile and all the rest of it, it is that when you weep, that you weep buckets. i thought was really good, it does what a film is meant to do, is it reaches in and grabs you by the heartstrings. was there i say so much better than i expected. yeah. believe me, i went in thinking this ca rd believe me, i went in thinking this card is, this is not going to work and there is no way the structure can work with mamma mia, and you come out saying theyjust can work with mamma mia, and you come out saying they just want to see it again and again and again. you do. a very quick thought about dvd. a revenge thriller, she won the best actress award at the khan film festival a year ago now. i think it is really about her performance, her

husband gets murdered, the nazis are implicated. she takes the law into their own hands. her performance is brilliant. the film, actually rather like children act, has some flaws. she carries it, it is worth seeing. it is brilliant. all right, mark kermode, thank you. thank you for being with us, i buy. —— bye—bye. hello. loads of showers around on friday, some really heavy with hail and thunder. also cool right across the board. the cool conditions continue into the weekend and of course for many of us this is a bank holiday weekend. friday's showers clearing away with this low pressure during the early hours of saturday. we're starting this morning off with something a bit dry. through this

morning it is going to be dry and bright with plenty of sunshine, a few showers will continue across northern and western coastal areas and we could see a few showers developing further inland as well but nowhere near as many as what we saw on friday. slightly lighter winds as well given the amount of sunshine. it should feel a little bit better than it did on friday thatis bit better than it did on friday that is still going to be cooler than average. on sunday night, another chilly one but with a veil of cloud in this area of low pressure, it will not be quite as cool as what we started this morning on. it was all downhill really as we started on sunday. this area of low pressure is going to sweep across the country throughout the day to bring some storms and also some strong winds too. could stop the day off on strong winds too. could stop the day offona strong winds too. could stop the day off on a chilly note throughout the south—east, but wet and windy weather. some of this rain will be quite heavy as well particularly across southern and western hills.

it is going to be a rather blustery day, just that wind across the south—west a0 to a5 kilometres per hour. still quite a cool air mass is going to be making some areas quite cool going to be making some areas quite cool. during saturday night, as we head on into the bank holiday monday, a ridge of high pressure should settle things down. there will still be a few showers across northern and western areas, a bit of a breeze as well blowing in from the west but i think with more sunshine around for central, south and western areas, it should feel that touch warmer. temperatures of 1819 in the north, 21, maybe 22 degrees in the north, 21, maybe 22 degrees in the south—east. a ridge of high pressure, we could see it unsettled clouds and it will feel a little bit warmer still. —— unsettled clouds. welcome to bbc news,
