i quite like have been watching at! i quite like it. i think the show is really good fun, people watch it, it is exactly what television, what you want sometimes it. an escape from the miserable, depressing reality. and then we come, to brexit where we started. 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 and goodbye. next it's the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode.

mark, nice to have you here. nice to be here. what do we have this week? an interesting week. we have spider—man multiplied in into the spider—verse, an animated feature. we have mortal engines, a battle of the cities. and lizzie, an infamous murder revisited. spider—man: into the spider—verse, an animation that given its origins makes perfect sense. absolutely. it brings together a series of different spider—man, spider—men, spider people, from all the different universes. focusing largely on the central character of miles morales, bitten by a spider while doing spray paint graffiti, and he develops spider powers he doesn't know what to do with. initially he thinks it's puberty. the next thing he finds himself in a world with lots of other spider people showing him the ropes, pun intended. here's a clip. 0h.

act supernormal. selecting a bagel. spider—man? you know, that's funny. i get that a lot. hey! he's got the bagel! all right, time to swing, just like i taught you. when did you teach me that? i didn't. it's a little joke, team building. all right, you ready? of course i'm not ready! whoa! i can't do this yet! everybody knows that the best way to learn is under intense life—threatening pressure. ow. come on. uh—oh. target‘s been spotted. what are you doing down there? i run better than i swing. you've got to swing, or they'll catch you. this is what you wanted. i thought it was really good fun. what i like about it is,

if you are a comic book fan then you will be used to the idea of several different incarnations of the same character. also, if you're a movie fan, we have seen at least three different versions of spider—man in the last 10—15 years. this takes all those different versions and throws them together in the same universe and has fun with them in the same world. i liked it because firstly it looks great. it's really well done, the animation and it owes an awful lot to the original comic book sources. the film—makers said they wanted every frame to look like it was torn from a comic book, which it does. it's really funny, the jokes really hit home. but it's really moving. there is a lovely thing, the whole thing about spider—man is that it's about an outsider and this is a group of outsiders all outside their own world, trying to find their place. i think young audiences can enjoy it as well as older audiences. i'm 56 and not a huge comic books fan nor a spider—man aficionado but i laughed all the way through and found it really moving. really enjoyable. some superhero films can get too dark and self—importa nt. this looks like it avoids that.

there is underlying substance to it. it is about something, someone finding their own place in the world, but it hasn't got that brooding, everything is black and grey and grim. it's really good fun. i saw it with a paying audience and it went down terrifically well, the jokes all hitting home. but the bits that were meant to be moving were doing so as well. no one was more surprised by me by how much fun this was and i really liked it. second, mortal engines, based on a book by philip reeve. which i haven't read. it's in a post—apocalyptic world in which cities have basically got up and are walking around fighting each other. so we meet london, the whole of london with st paul's and bits that you recognise, chasing after other cities. the principle that drives it is called municipal darwinism. it's produced and co—written by peterjackson of the lord of the rings movies, so you're expecting it to look spectacular and have really

arresting stuff in it. i think at its very best it has hints of studio ghibli cartoons like laputa or howl's moving castle, and a bit of terry gilliam and jeunet and caro. at its worst, it's transformers with towns, it's big cities hitting each other. the problem is, although it's visually spectacular, the script feels lumpen. the characters don't get much chance to develop in it. one character called shrike comes in, strikes a nerve, and you think, "here we go." here's a character with an with an arc and development and he changes and things happen to him. the minute he's off screen, it's much less interesting. it's almost like the spectre of the cities themselves. it's a lot of ideas, many of which you recognise from otherfilms, bolted together and kind of lumping around the screen for a couple of hours. there are interesting things in it, but i have to say it is a shambolic movie. i did find a lot of it, a lot of the time watching it thinking, i wish the story was as good as what i'm looking at. spectacular visuals are neverjust enough. you need to have

substance underneath. the synopsis i read seemed slightly implausible. i don't mind implausibility. i just want it to have emotional sense. i thought it lacked that. lizzie is our third film. if i say the name lizzie borden, what do you think? i don't think anything. lizzie borden took an axe and gave her mother a0 whacks. have i let you down? no, simon mayo said the same thing as you. i'm in great company. lizzie borden was the central suspect in a murder case in 1872 that inspired a ghoulish nursery rhyme. this is now chloe sevigny and kristen stewart starring in a film about lizzie borden. chloe sevigny is lizzie, living in a house under the tyrannical rule of her father, who is really horrible, and a hated stepmother. kristen stewart is the maid, bridget, who's told her name is maggie now she works in the house. they form a shared bond that is sparked initially by their loathing

of the father figure. here's a clip. sorry this is happening to you. i'm ashamed to be his daughter. i've been lying to myself for so long now. telling myself that things will get better. it won't, will it? not ever. pigeons c00. why are you kind to me? what's the relationship like between those two?

i've read certain reviews that say the dynamic between the two is fantastic. it is. what's interesting about the film is that i imagined everybody knows a version of this story and i'm finding out more and more that that isn't true. the film seems to imagine you already do, that this is a story where nobody is quite sure what happened in the case. the film imagines a version of events, it looks like it's inspired by a version of events from an ed mcbain novel. it develops a relationship between the two central characters and then works out a dynamic that seems to make sense within the context of the movie. whether it's true, nobody knows but it makes sense within the movie. we were talking before about the very different film, mortal engines. i don't mind the invention of fantasy but it has to make sense in and of itself. i thought this really did. you can see from the clip it's really low—key. you can feel the electricity in the air. very, very good performances.

it reminds me of the movie lady macbeth, about a character trapped within a house. the house felt very claustrophobic, like a prison, and you get a sense of that in this. that inside the house everything is stifling and outside the house it's a very, very different atmosphere. i thought it was a very interesting and low—key film. clearly not for everybody. the thing that surprises me most, i thought it was a film that was saying, you all know this story, and this is a different version. but it turns out that's not true. not at all. i would have to swot up on it before going to see it. the best out, the old man and the gun. i love this. are you going to go and see it? i am going to go and see it. i just thought it was fabulous. you have heard all the stories that robert redford has said it might be his last film. who knows whether it will. but if it is his last, what a fabulous note to go out on. it's based on a true story, he plays an old bank robber, part of a group called the over the hill gang. it's him and his relationship

with sissy spacek, looking back on his life, that becomes an anthology of robert redford's screen career. he is wonderful. supporting performances are great, including a brilliant performance from tom waits, the musician turned actor. i think he's great. if you are robert redford, this would be the point where you go, i'm top of the tree, thank you, i will step away. i will look forward to it. i don't go to the cinema often enough. do go and see this. you will love this. the best dvd this week? they shall not grow old is out this week on dvd. there was a lot of attention around armistice day. i think it's extraordinary. they have ta ken ioo—year old footage from the great war. peterjackson, who produced mortal engines, and co—wrote it, this is what he has done brilliantly here, taking this old footage, using computer graphics and special effects to make it look like it was shot yesterday. it's like you are in the trenches with the faces of these very young soldiers from 100 years ago literally looking like they are right in front of you. he has added soundtrack and they got lip readers

in to read what's being said. but the effect is really extraordinary. it's like the film leaps into life. it's quite startling when it first happens, quite remarkable. it's very moving and i think that of the two peterjackson products around at the moment, this is the one to pay attention to. i have put it down to go and see that as well. mark, thank you. lovely to see you. and you. a quick reminder before we go that you'll find more film news and reviews from across the bbc online at bbc.co.uk/markkermode. and you can find all our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. that's it for this week, though. thanks for watching. goodbye. the weather on sunday is going to look very different from what we have had today. storm deidree has

thrown a lot at us. we still have some snow. this was a short while ago in scotland. for most of us, the weather has improved and the worst is over and for the next few hours we have an amber snow warning by scotland, north of the central belt. the main area of wet weather, that curl of cloud of that, bringing rain to northern england, quite squally and windy around the irish sea coast. the storm is going to move through. any snow in scotland over the hill increasingly. why the end of the night, these are the temperatures. not too cold at all. icy patches across northern england and scotland. showers easing off in the morning. increasing amount of

sunshine here and across northern ireland. england and wales are generally sunny morning but cloud gathering in the west bringing wet weather in the western parts of england and wales stop further east fine and dry. an improvement on the day. milder day, not as windy. a much better day on the whole. the cold air stuck across scandinavia and north—eastern parts of europe. atla ntic and north—eastern parts of europe. atlantic influence which means it will be unsettled in the uk. monday to most places dry. morning mist and fog over the hills in scotland after that fog. as a wind picks up, a few showers into the west ahead of this. the snow will be melting. we then push some rain in as the area of low

pressure sitting to the south of iceland pushes the weather front alleway, slowly but surely, on tuesday. some heavy rain in the west and especially over the hills. flooding likely. it may be the weather improves in northern ireland in the afternoon but still some uncertainty over that. it stays mild into wednesday and thursday, with sunshine and showers. this is bbc news. i'm krupa padhy. our top stories: cheering. a last minute deal on the paris climate accord — while critics say it doesn't go far enough, delegates at the un conference in poland say its fair and balanced. and ambition that will ensure that oui’ and ambition that will ensure that our children and their children look back at our legacy and recognise that their parents and grandparents took the right decisions —— and ambition. several thousand yellow vest protesters take to the streets again in paris, but the numbers are smaller than on previous weekends.
