5:47 pm
main streets. and we are also in revenge. we on the streets of beirut if you have tears to shed. this is a film about a boy and a baby on the mean streets. and we are also rpg, ruth bailey ginsberg as scales of injustice plays her that rates the scales of this is this is she dropped theirs in the middle of a junket. no one was expecting it and he revealed he'd been on a rampage himself of revenge when someone close to him was raped and he looked for someone to take revenge on for a week. he was talking about revenge because he does nothing but star in these grim revenge dramas. it started with taken and now he's dealing with another one quarter pursuit. he's in a luxury keep the dinner mac ski resort. his son is mixed up with some drug
5:48 pm
dealers and is murdered and liam sta rts dealers and is murdered and liam starts to take matters into his own hands. there are criminals with silly names. he goes to his brother—in—law who is also a little bit dodgy to find out more about the underworld. kyle. you got mixed up with some clown by the name of dante and they stole a kilo of coke from viking. who's viking? drug dealer. a big one. viking's a whole different breed. he likes hurting people. i'm gonna kill him. sure you are. what makes you think you can kill a man? i've killed three of his guys. what did you do with the bodies? wraps them in chicken wire, threw them on the gorge. where'd you learn that? i read it in a crime novel.
5:49 pm
laughs as you say, he does specialise in revenge movies. they must be popular for the producers to keep making them. the man they pick, he's got this cheerless nurse that has set in. they are politically incorrect most of the time. albanian gangsters all over the place. this one, leaves all over the place. this one, leaves a nasty taste in the mouth because of the publicity that it has garnered. it's a ratherflippant movie about violence and revenge. he sta rts movie about violence and revenge. he starts shooting people wearing that furry coat wherever he goes even to a nightclub. they're supposed to be humour in it, but because of that interview, i couldn't find anything to laugh at. i thought, this is really important. the film is going for a black humour in a matter of a coen brothers, or even every member
5:50 pm
last yea r‘s coen brothers, or even every member last year's oscars. it doesn't have the wit or the politics of that. it has liam piling up bodies while this car crash of an interview sanders in the background. this is the sort of movie that thinks it's amusing, because there's so much body count to list the cast in order of disappearance. that's the level of humour. you wonder whether that awful publicity, people might not go to cx? awful publicity, people might not go to (x? it could have the perverse effect. the tone of the movie takes is instantly intelligent examination of revenge. it's flippant. that's what's ugly. i really hope no one goes to see it. and that will serve him right. thank you. it means chaos. capa
5:51 pm
him right. thank you. it means chaos. ca pa now. him right. thank you. it means chaos. capa now. this film is actually oscar nominated for best foreign language film. if you have anything welling up inside, this film will tug at your heartstrings. it is directed by a lebanese film director and it's about a kid who is 12 years old and decides to sue his pa rents 12 years old and decides to sue his parents but then takes to the streets of beirut, runs away from them and is given the job of holding this baby for an ethiopian illegal immigrants. so he ends up baby—sitting this tiny baby and the pairof baby—sitting this tiny baby and the pair of them go around the streets and they are amazing. i've never seen a spice of life realist drama like this in which a baby and a way perform so brilliantly like this. if they gave oscars for best baby, that's what when. as an extraordinary film. it really tugs at the heartstrings. it is a bit chaotic and a bit too much and took
5:52 pm
governors, the streets of beirut. you'll be in so many floods of tears you won't notice a lot of the wrongs. oscar nominated for best foreign language film. well it when? no. it up against roma. no chance. this is the story of eight supreme court judge, this is the story of eight supreme courtjudge, ruth bailey ginsberg. she fought for women's are connected at equality. the last time i was doing this with you we revealed a documentary about her. it could when. this is a bio pic and it hones in on her early career. here, felicityjones who we know from the theory of everything playing ruth bader ginsburg and it has those compulsory scenes at harvard where
5:53 pm
she outsmart everyone. she's the only woman at harvard. we can see her as the only woman throughout she is married to this called marty. he turns her to a new way of thinking about inequality in writing there i’u ns about inequality in writing there runs she is fighting again so we can see her now taking this big court case all the way to the supreme court, the biggest case of her life and doing a mock trial at her home. it's about balancing home and work in front of the aclu. why shouldn't men be nurses and if women want to fight fires—— what about pilots? yeah, again, if women choose to take on these roles—— judges? why not? ceos, generals, what about garbage man? do you want to be a garbage man? and if men want to be teachers or raise children—— oh come on. percentages aren't the point. wrong. people should be— wrong! ...able to pursue their passions. wrong, wrong! you're screwing it up, ruth. have you read the appendix attached to their brief? you're making the wrong case. these are laws written by men who think we are privileged to be
5:54 pm
excused from men's obligations, but it is not a privilege, it is a cage and these laws are the bars! so that's it? you're gonna take them all on at the same time? interesting, because these are supreme court in america is very much in the news now. she is still there. the real ruth. the ending of there. the real ruth. the ending of the film fades into the present and you see that's really important blow she is striking. the films tries to prepare racial inequality with sexual inequality coming up during the civil rights era. everyone is very good in this movie, the clothes and styling is good. something is missing. there is a lack of drama in the courtroom when it builds up to the courtroom when it builds up to the big case but you can't deny the
5:55 pm
sort of good intentions of the film and it's a very inspirational in a way for young women watching to realise that this it took this woman to create the modern workplace. things aren't perfect yet, but this went some way to making that situation. if you had to choose which of the documentary and this drama which would you go for?” would go for the documentary but millions won't. best out at the moment, a documentary about a soul singer. great snow documentary. if you don't know me by now. this is a great documentary about a wonderful soul music from the 70s and also about the dark tales of the music industry and a lot of sex appeal and this. lenny henry was inspired by this.
5:56 pm
he's a super cell sensation. —— super soul sensation. netflix for the best, the boy who harnessed the wind. an inspirationaltale the best, the boy who harnessed the wind. an inspirational tale from africa about a young boy who invented electricity for his village in malawi in 2001 and brought the reins to malawi. it's an african fairy tale but has all the politics and corruption and the environmentalism you need in an african tail. it's very well done. by african tail. it's very well done. by the end of it you're cheering with the went itself to get those rain and water coming. really well performed. it's a wonderful title. thank you so much. that's it for this week though. thanks for watching.
5:57 pm
hello. it's been nice to spend the day in the cinema across parts of the uk. we had some beautiful sunshine to enjoy and some really surprising temperatures for february. the best of the sunshine, and wales did nicely. we had temperatures up as high as 18.1 degrees. but, some places got stuck with scenes like this. this was the sussex coast a little earlier on. lots of cloud, fun, and as a consequence, temperatures down at 8 degrees. closer to where we should be in february. you can see on the satellite this big lump of cloud, mist and fog sat around across southern areas, also across the north west producing the odd spot of rain into northern ireland and western scotland. quite windy tonight, breezy elsewhere and we are
5:58 pm
going to see that area of cloud and fog that has been sitting spreading northwards, to parts of north—east england through the night. it could turn market with four patches in places. not cold, because of the strength of the breeze. into the weekend, it's more of the same, more mild days, warm days you could say, some chilly nights still to come and potentially some foggy mornings. one more weather ingredients, there is. a frontal system trying to push and from the west. this will bring cloud and some patchy rain into northern ireland through tomorrow morning. that is fringing into western scotla nd that is fringing into western scotland and may be just on the doorsteps of south—west wales and west cornwall by the afternoon. further east, some areas will start to mist and fog, quite stubborn or relu cta nt to to mist and fog, quite stubborn or reluctant to clear but for the majority, tomorrow afternoon we are going to see more sunshine, moral ones as well. 16—17d. this cloud and rain will limita ones as well. 16—17d. this cloud and rain will limit a bit further east. weakening all the while, introduces
5:59 pm
more moisture so the increased chances of fog and temperatures dropping away towards the south—east and also the north—east of the uk. we could see frost on sunday morning. the idea of patches of fog to greet you on sunday, some of the fog could be quite reluctant to clear, may stay cloudy and one or two places but most are going to see sunny skies during sunday, once again temperatures still well above where they should be for february, 12-15d. next where they should be for february, 12—15d. next week starts off under the influence of high pressure, so it be fine at first but we will be watching the atlantic because slowly but surely, frontal systems will start to edge in our direction. so the outlook for next week shows that after a fine start, a couple of beautiful days on monday and tuesday things will slowly cloud over, the increasing chance of something a bit more unsettled but not especially cold.
6:00 pm
the identity of the teenage boy who abducted, raped and murdered six—year—old alesha macphail is revealed. the name and face of 16—year—old aaron campbell can now be disclosed, after a judge lifted a reporting ban. he said the crimes against alesha caused revulsion unmatched by any case in recent times. lawyers agree it's an exceptional case. it has to be based on public interest. what appeared to be the main factors were the heinous nature of the crime. and the other main stories on tonight's programme... ian austin becomes the ninth mp to leave labour, declaring he's ashamed of its failure to tackle anti—semitism. twenty years since the milestone macpherson report into policing and race, we talk to three fathers and sons about its impact.
