times, their because the sunday times, their cartoon is worth a look. it made us laugh. it is absolutely delightful. they have got a picture of the seven dwa rves they have got a picture of the seven dwarves holding a newspaper, the headline is seven tory leadership contenders and one of them is saying there is shifty, randy, pushy, lazy and dull. i think we covered them! we might have seen pictures of them along the way, we will leave it to other people to decide. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you, 7 days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers, and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you nigel nelson and jo phillips. goodbye. hello and welcome to the film review here on bbc news.

taking us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. what delights do you have for us this week? very interesting week, we have the latest in thejk rowling wizard world, fantastic beasts: the crimes of grindelwald. we have suspiria, a remake of the 1977 horror classic and the price of everything a documentary about the intersection of art and commerce. so, fantastic beasts: the crimes of grindelwald, how do we pronounce it? even within the films of the sounds are floating. are you a harry potter fan? up to a point. 0k.

there is some question about whether or not if you had not kept up with the expanding harry potter wizard in universe, how much of this you would follow. it follows on from the previous one, obviously. essentially he was imprisoned at the beginning and there is a fantastic escape sequence, he goes to europe to spread his message, grindelwald, meanwhile, and redman's character... but dumbledore is conflicted, here is a clip. why can't you go? i cannot move against grindelwald, it has to be you. i can't blame you. in your shoes i would probably refuse, too. it is late, good evening. come on.

dumbledore... so, it's an odd one, on the one hand, i like this world, i like these characters and i was somebody who was very much seduced by the harry potter cinematic world because the first films i wasn't crazy about and then i kind of felt into them later on. one of the issues with this is, and this was something which was true of the star wars prequels, because the world that has been created is so big and expansive, when you start telling this story from this perspective, there is an awful lot of detail and plot and characters and threads and i do feel that there are times that this gets lost in its own back story, in its own threading the narrative together. that said, there is a strange tonal mix, on the one hand you get moments of slapstick comedy,

which we have always had in the potter movies, there are times when you have spectacular set pieces, great big visual effects, set pieces, huge things happening on screen in a way which is rather delightful. you also get the return to hogwarts, which which was a moment, at the screening i was in, where you could hear people in the cinema enjoying that. and there is also a lot of darkness in the same way that there was with the deathly hallows films and i think some of it works, some of it gets confused and tied up in its own back story and logic. however it does come together in what is kind of the third act, however it does come together in what's kind of the third act, when all of these themes about the central character, who is somebody who is basically spinning lies and deceit and has this aryan philosophy of pure bloods, which is something which has run all the way through the stories

and this is tied in with the politics of the era in a way which looks like it is setting us up for something very interesting in the next film and again that is one of the weaknesses of this, quite a lot of it felt like getting everything in the right place so that the next instalment can do something really interesting. i mean if you are a fan of this world and there's no question people will go to see it, there are very good things in it, some nice performances and touches, i did feel it got lost in its own exposition, there was almost too much plot fighting the space. and there are times when it lacked that central clear line which you need through this kind of narrative. but by the time we got to the end of it, it had gathered it altogether, 0k, fine, now i'm ready for the next instalment — that is going to be quite a way of. there is going to be quite a few more! there will be, yes. this one, supernatural horror,

is that the right characterisation? quick primer, in the ‘70s, dario moved into suspense and horror and this was a huge hit, everything was very stylish. it was an american dancer comes to europe, enrols at a dance academy where she uncovers witchy secrets. dakota johnson comes to europe in this one, enrols in the academy, it is set in divided berlin and she goes to a dance academy where she uncovers witchy secrets. but this one is pretty much an hour longer than the argento phocion. in this one there is a verbose feeling of explaining everything. my probelm with it is there are individual things in this which are very good, the dance numbers are evocative horror dance numbers in the same way that the film climax had evocative dance numbers. but when i watched suspiria by dario argento, there was no point

where i thought, this is great but what it really needs is an hour of people holding forth about the politics! also, the dario argento one alludes to its time and setting whereas this one is very specifically set and there is a lot of stuff about what is going on in the news! and the weird thing is that if, like me, you are a horrorfan, you will think, the dario argento was pretty much untouchable and what this has done is demonstrate that there are interesting things you can do with that idea, but i'm not sure that weighing it down with all this padding and baggage is actually to anyone's benefit. however, i do know a couple of people who have seen it and said, well, i think it's the masterpiece that the dario argento version never was. they're wrong — but it is an interesting if utterly flawed opinion! they're wrong but it's

their a valid opinion! they have every right to be completely wrong! you're so generous! it's not about being generous, it's about being right! this is just this isjust a matter of this is just a matter of right and wrong. the next one a documentary, the price of everything. yeah, which leads us very nicely into this. it employs the price of everything and the value of nothing. it is a documentary about how we now live in a world in which a art commerce is this multibillion—dollar industry and in which modern art sells for millions and millions, not old masters but modern art, which is being made now, selling the millions... speaking of that, we have been reporting on bbc news that a david hockney has sold at auction for £70 million and that is the highest value for a work by living painter. wow. in a way that makes this all the more timely

because at the beginning of this, you see this montage of auctions in which huge amounts of money are going... we hear from artists and auctioneers and dealers, collectors and investors, about what it is that they are doing and what it is that they are investing in. and the thing i like about the documentary is, it's notjudgemental, it's not saying you can't possibly talk about art and commerce because the two things are bound up. at one point it says, all of this money is making people make more sun, and stop complaining about it! then there is the question of supply and demand, if there is more of it, is it worthless? then there is the people who wanted to go somewhere where it can be seen by the public — here is a clip. so, you want your work in museums. museums are for the lack of a better word the gatekeepers of culture, to some extent. once you cross the threshold

you are walking in and you're thinking, these are works that matter, not just for our generation but for future generations. so maybe things happen and i fall out of favour in a number of years, it will go into storage, but someday, maybe in 50 years, maybe in 70, maybe in 150, it could come out, it doesn'tjust vanish. what i know about art would not fill the back of a postage stamp but i was really gripped by these debates about, how can you say that this painting is worth this much money and how is it that this has now become an investment strategy? if an artist isn't actually making the work of art, can they still put their name on it? and all the things put together in a way that i thought it was witty and fascinating and i came out of it thinking i knew more than i did when i went in but i was entertained throughout. speaking of entertainment, best out at the moment? 9to 5.

it still holds up and it has a very strong feminist message but it is funny and he has characters you can root for and i can't wait to go back and see it again in the cinema. yeah. lovely. and best dvd? this one is out on dvd and i was never a bros fan... i bet you were! hey, listen, i liked showaddywaddy so i have no shame in pop music! but bros i never did. but this documentary made me really like them. it is part spinal tap, part sibling rivalry, and it is also a story of the fans got out of loving bros, it's very sympathetic, very funny and very, very funny and i thought it was touching. mark kermode, secret bros fan, even though he won't admit it! quick reminder before we go that you will find more film news and reviews cross the bbc online and you can find all our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. but that is it for this week, thank you so much for watching, goodbye from us.
