i think the big risk with a centrist party is that it will never really get much power, it will probably never even when seats, but it could scupper any conservative or labour mps in marginals. so, as with the sdp, they cost labour quite a few seats. so that could be what would really happen. but i think it would be very difficult to get people very excited about a centrist party, especially young people who are very enthused by labour at the moment, and older people who will always just vote conservative for the most part. the conservative mp and former foreign secretary, borisjohnson, and his wife, marina wheeler, are divorcing. the couple are believed to have separated some months ago. they've been married since 1993 and have four children together. now on bbc news, the film review. welcome to the film review.

to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. if there we have american animals which is a stranger than fiction true story. we have the nun, an un—frightening frightener. and we have puzzle, which is a romance set against the backdrop of competitive jigsaw puzzling. american animals. are that seems like a peculiar conceit as well. trying to steal some books from a library? based on a true story of this university heist from kentucky in 2004, a group of hapless young men decided they were going to steal these rare books from the university library. and the film basically centres on the central introverted character,

spencer, and warren, who is described as being the spice, the present who brings the element of chaos. we see these youngsters, who are basically dissolute and they feel that their lives are not going anywhere. they feel they not fulfil their potential and they decide they're going to pull off a heist despite the fact they have absolutely no idea how to do it and very little chance of being able to pull it off. here is a clip. the cameras are not cameras. they're motion detectors. we're going to e—mail the library asking to have the autobahn and the illuminated manuscript on display when we arrived. they will be here, and here. as i was saying, but here is target priority number one. the autobahn. directly behind the display case is a door with which leads to a staff elevator that illustrate the basement now, once in the basement we can access the file exit at the side of the building.

where is the librarian? the librarian is the single biggest risk to this entire operation. she needs to become a nonfactor as soon as possible. so what is interesting about this is on the one hand you have the tension between the dramatised story on the actual real—life events being told to us in ways that contradict each other, so you get that kind of unreliable narrator because of the other thing is that basically, it is a character study about how it is that these boys decided to pull off this heist. their planning is that they watch a bunch of heist movies like reservoir dogs. they say all the way through, no—one is going to get hurt, but they have not figured out how no—one is going to get hurt. it is like watching a car crash unfolding in slow motion.

it has got this really interesting take on the way in which they feel like they're alive somehow i'm not coming together and somehow doing this going to give them some sense of purpose. also, they all talk each other into doing it despite the fact that it is completely haphazard. and what i liked about the film is that when it needs to gets dark, it is not afraid of doing so. i mean, there is an underlying sort of growing horror about what happens and how it happens and no looking back on it, reflecting, and all the way through you get this tension between the dramatised narratives. that was really fascinating. primarily, cot it is a character study. it is about them as characters and about how this completely sort of half witted linking together. ina it also about admit of no—one will get hurt. second film. the nun. your son had a very strong critic of it. this from the conjuring

cinematic universe. this is a prequel. i went with him because, brilliantly, my son likes horror movies like i do. we both agreed it was the most boring horror movie we'd seen in a very long time. it's set in a remote convent. satanic forces threatening to break out in the form of this nun that basically looks like a bad marilyn manson impersonator. we have a priest and the most irritating psychic in movie history whose catchline is, i'm a french canadian. yes, it is that funny. and all the way through you're looking for these bang scares so that you willjump. andjumped and jumped which is when i started to fall asleep and then woke myself up. and that was the only moment in the film. it was quite nice seeing it was a man who was absolutely target audience and have seen all the other ones and i said, was itjust me?

or was that the foreign film you've ever seen? —— or was that the dullest horror film you've ever seen? ever seen? he said, no, it is absolutely terrible. i would probably like it because i am a whiz. you would be bored. just under these drab grey colours. it is only half cleared and the story is really ponderous. i will tell you how bad it is. there's a sequence in it where someone is buried alive and i'm really claustrophobic. that face that you're pulling now is my reaction to some of getting buried alive. in this scene i literally don't care. it is that bad. at least it is set in transylvania which is a bit... isn't it? it is the telescopic castlewood people wandering around. —— in this gothic castle. very slowly, doing sort of... it is rubbish. i will take your word for it but i do like the sound of puzzle. who knew that such a thing as competitive puzzling even existed? i had no idea. it takes inspiration from an argentinian film which i confess i have not seen. kelly macdonald plays a mousy housewife was put upon by her

husband and i have family. _by —— by her family. she spent her whole life clearing up after other people. we seem to parted beginning and we don't even realise it is her party because she is cleared up after her birthday. she does the jigsaw puzzle and it seems to be very coming and she said herfriend, why did you get the jigsaw puzzle from? she said when she goes to the shop and he's another proposed are seeking a partner for competitive jigsaw puzzle in. she answers it on whim and the next thing is, she meets up with the french was a strange and then to hit lucky ones and now dedicate his life to puzzling. and it is something that they have in common. he is a clip. why are we wasting all this time doing puzzles? what else is there to do? it is a childish hobby for bored people. you know it is not true. tell me you're not a bored rich guy.

to me you're not a childish housewife. no, that is not what you are. you're much more important things to do. you are a man of ideas. why do you do the stupid puzzles? it is to control the chaos. that is ridiculous. come on. missing the point. 0k. what is the point, robert? life is messy. it does not make any sense. sorry to break the news to you. life is just random. i love the interaction between these characters. i love the way they are both played. i love how understated it is. and what happens is, when you go into it you think, 0k, i'm not entirely sure this is going to work. you get completely drawn in. you see her start to find her feet, start to find her rolling, you know, her individuality and independence. you see this relationship of them and it's played outjigsaw puzzles. and it becomes the story of somebody

breaking out of the confines of a suffocating life. i thought it was really, really touching. you know, the best films can creep up on you put them not creep up on knew the way that the nun creeps up on you but you don't realise that how bogged you are until you find yourself being swept up. —— how involved you are... that was really, really touching and charming. not least because those two central performances, you care about the central characters, you want to know more about them. i think you would really like it. i think i will stop i never look at a jigsaw puzzle in the same way again. i never knew there were such a thing as competitive jigsaw. neither did i. cold war. it should be austere, is it not? it is a romance that plays out over 15 years. it starts in poland in the late 40s and goes over 15 years and crosses boundaries,

musical and personal and political. you know, it has four by three square frame black and white. it is really passionate, it has got real hearts to it. it's about this relationship. they cannot be with each other, they cannot be apart from each other. i thought it was wonderful. i've seen it a couple of times down the second time around, you know, the best films when you see them the second time around you notice a whole lot of things you did not see the first time. also, it is a long time period but it covers but the film is 90 minutes. it's compact and beautifully told. and it reminded me, i mean, i say this... it reminded me little bit of casablanca. the story is nothing like casablanca but it has that archetypal romance things like that it was really beautiful and i loved before. and i love the fact that it inspired by the story of his parents though it is not the story of his parents may they just inspired the characters. if you really should see

it is of you have a chance. best dvd. mary shelley. yes. i picked this because got overlooked in the cinema. it is the story of writing frankenstein. you know, some critics were kind of quite harsh on it saying that it was taking liberties with the backs. —— with the facts. i mean, it is not perfect but what it is as interesting. it is kind of trying to reclaim the story. it is trying to tell in a different way. again, i went into it worrying that would not get on with it you can catch up on on things that you missed out in cinemas with dvds and it is definitely worth giving it a go because i thought it was much better than people give it credit for. thank you very much, as always. thank you. a quick reminder that you will find more film news and reviews online on the bbc website. and you can find of our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. that's it for this week.
