architecture. and we're going to talk about... which we are both seen. a little bit of a round—up. let's start with what couldn't be a more difficult topic. 22nd ofjuly. this is a drama. more importantly, it is about how a country, a civilised country, response to that atrocity. although we do see the bombings and we see the outrage. what it is really about is how the country, the legal system, the survivors and politicians react to the atrocity. here is a clip. we have got the final number, eight deadin have got the final number, eight dead in oslo, 69 elsewhere. wounded?

at least 200. thank you. we are all shocked. this was an attack on our government and on our children. we are a long way from understanding why but what is clear is that our nation has been attacked by someone who would see it changed. it would see our democracy become tyranny, see our democracy become tyranny, see our democracy become tyranny, see our humanity for. we must not give into this we must fight. and what the drama then really becomes about is how you deal with that kind of atrocity and there is a debate about whether or not the perpetrators should be allowed to speak in court because what he's saying is hateful and vile. but more

importantly, the voices of the victims of the survivors are also to be heard. it is about a number of things, the rise of the far right, extremism, it is shocking to see some ideas, some extremist ideas, which since then have passed into mainstream politics. not tactics but ideas and ideologies. what green grass managed to do is make a serious film about how it is that in a civilised, ordered society, you tried to make sense of something like this. and it is about the response been very measured and deliberate and it is about issues of freedom of speech and i think it deals with it in a very unsensationalfashion, which deals with it in a very unsensational fashion, which i deals with it in a very unsensationalfashion, which i think is important. it is obviously very disturbing, it is also, you know, very, very moving and harrowing. but in the end, i think it is also defined because it is about the voice of young people. you know, standing up to this as an ideology.

it is very tough and testing film, as it should be, but it is a serious film. terribly difficult isn't it because people will say if you guys talk about something so horrific and really not that long ago, shouldn't wa nt really not that long ago, shouldn't want just make a really not that long ago, shouldn't wantjust make a documentary? well, paul green grass has a background in documentary. if anyone is going to documentary. if anyone is going to do it, i think he is the guy to do it. i think he's serious and as i say he does have a background in documentary and news and you can tell. yes. on two very different matters for the second film. this is a total mess. tom hardy is someone whose body is taken over by a parasite. it is outside this standard universal marvel universe. it starts out as a character study... then it gets silly and

turned into a rubbery special effects movie with lots of silly motorbike chases. and then it turns into all of me meets the fly or howard the duck meets hudson hawk. at the end of it, i don't think i've ever seen a movie so catastrophically all over the place. i went to sit with my son and i was about to say at least it was never boring but actually was at the beginning, then it became silly and then in the last third became very entertaining and very good fun. so tom hardy doing very good work, as much as it is possible to do in the circumstances. it is a mess of a movie. what was tom hardy doing in this movie? he was doing his best to hold it together and make sense of it. there are a million reasons to do superhero films. it doesn't look like any other superhero movie you saw recently and it is all over the place and not without interest but it isa place and not without interest but it is a total mess. i love the way that you can still tried to pick a

glimmer, not without some interest. i enjoyed the last third of it but it is not good! ok, columbus i'm really intrigued by. the featured debut of the screenwriter. sparta korean business man... meanwhile, haley richardson is a young woman who lives there, she is kind of trap there and she's very, very interested in architecture. and he claims at first that he isn't but evidently he is. and through talking about buildings they start stop about buildings they start stop about other things. here is a clip. during that time banks were designed to be imposing, fortress—like tellers behind bars. the idea here was that you walk in at street level, you don't have to climb any stairs, it is inviting. sorry, what?

what are you doing? who are you? shut up, and just tried to tie about this building. you said this was one of the federal buildings? this building. you said this was one of the federal buildings7fi this building. you said this was one of the federal buildings? it is. why? it's one of the first modernist banks in the united states. no, that can't be. do you like it intellectually because of these facts? no, i'm also moved by it. yes, tammy about that. what moves you? what i likes about this is it's not psycho geography, the conversations are framed by buildings and by talking about buildings and by talking about buildings they really talking about their own lives. that he has a problematic relationship with his father and she has a problematic relationship with her mother. all this comes out was discussing architecture. the film is beautiful

and just to look out, see on the big screen because it is beautifully designed. it reminded tonally, although it is a completely different film, about another phone last year that is a film about growing old and alienation. i thought this was really, really impressive. i am really interested in architecture too, which is why i'm intrigued. but i'm wondering if you need a fascination to enjoy the film, i think you are saying it is bigger than that. i just love the look in at the buildings and i love colour director framed buildings. it has got rave reviews wherever it is opened. i would has got rave reviews wherever it is opened. iwould be has got rave reviews wherever it is opened. i would be very interested to know what you think about it, particularly if you are an architecture fan. it sounds intriguing and beautiful as well. and let's talk about another big film this week too. this is the best outcome it opened a couple of days ago. a star is born she is the as

yet undiscovered singer—songwriter. it isa yet undiscovered singer—songwriter. it is a story that has been told in the 30s, 50s, 70s. each carnation has its own merits. i think this is its own merits. i thought the onstage its own merits. i thought the o nsta g e stuff its own merits. i thought the onstage stuff when bradley cooper is convincing as a rock star, it is impressive. what is more impressive is lady gaga admitting that she isn't a rock star in the scenes before she gets famous. but now you are slightly more reserved about i am. i love the first hour and the building and her showing off her talent and then it is 15 minutes too long i'm afraid. i have to tell you that nigel floyd who i respect above all other film critics things exactly the same as you do and i disagree with him and you. i think it is just the right length and you should give it another go. you see, i looked my watch once or twice that

isa i looked my watch once or twice that is a killer. did you cry? was i supposed to cry? i at everything. the first time they sang together, i cried the last time that they sign... heart of stone. no, i don't! we were watching a different film. i thought bradley cooper was extraordinarily good and i'm kind of neutral on him and i thought he was tiptop. i was sceptical on him and i thought he did a brilliant directorial job. thought he did a brilliant directorialjob. you believed the concert sequences and the back story. i office who need again. and you didn't cry? how can you you not cry? you didn't cry? how can you you not 7 is you didn't cry? how can you you not cry? is there a dvd out? i guarantee you are going to hate this one. a film called cap next revenge. it is a feminist film but it is also very

90w a feminist film but it is also very gory and... it is not quite as radical as it thinks it is but it is an interesting film. you and i are going to have a very serious discussion about a star is born. all our other programmes, if you can bear it, i'll run the byplay. all the news and reviews on the website. we have a conversation to have. enjoy your weekend. see you next time. we have had quite a bit of sunshine today across scotland and northern ireland as well but that is where the cooler air has been spreading in through the day. the colder air is not staying put as we go through the weekend it will push southwards across england and wales as well. you will notice the chill in the air as temperatures take a dive. today we have seen temperatures into the

low 20s but compared with these temperatures this afternoon for some it is going to be nine celsius cooler as we head into saturday. the cooler as we head into saturday. the cooler air... this streak of cloud which is our weather front. cooler air... this streak of cloud which is our weatherfront. as cooler air... this streak of cloud which is our weather front. as we go on through this evening and overnight the weather front will get more active, the rain turns heavy overnight for wales and northern parts of england. south—east of that we are still in the warm air, temperatures at ten to 12 degrees but cloud forming. myths and fog patches over the hills. further north with the clearing skies it will be a cold night, patches of frost developing in the countryside, particularly in scotland. a cold start the weekend, plenty of sunshine around but not entirely drive. a few showers moving in across northern and western areas from time to time. but plenty of

sunshine around as well. in contrast further south, starting on a cloudy note, the rainbow push eastwards across the day, turning heavier across the day, turning heavier across south—east england. the wind will pick up in the afternoon. it ends up being where ever you are. temperatures typically between ten and 11! celsius. saturday night sees the rain cleared through then the sky is clear and with the wind falling it is going to be a cold night. even in the towns and cities temperatures getting close to freezing. there could be pockets of frost in the countryside on sunday morning. a cold start of the day, a reversal of fortu nes morning. a cold start of the day, a reversal of fortunes those with england and wales having the best of the sunshine and wet and windy for scotla nd the sunshine and wet and windy for scotland with gale force gusts of wind. heavy rain for scotland. temperature wise, i! or 12 degrees underneath the wet and windy weather but better in london and the
