so you see from that, it's witty. their dogs. i had a paper around as laughs. a schoolgirl and i can remember that my heart rate would just climb through the roof as they went to he's doing it with humour, yes. but what's really interesting houses where i knew there was a is he tells you a load of stuff about ibiza. i've never been to ibiza and i don't quite big pooch on the other side of know anything about dance culture. the door and putting the newspaper but, firstly, for example, through, having it grab — the island is named after bez, the god of dance, at which point horrendous, really, really we see bez from the happy mondays frightening. there's a lot of them. as bez the god of dance, which you think that must if this is going to be, what we can be made up. no, that's actually true. only imagine a growing e—commerce, it goes through the history, we have businesses embracing the the rises and falls, advantages of the internet and the the transformations, the invasions, the armies, the farmers. it tells us of the point ibiza overheads. we have heard of the became the biggest tourist destination in the world. perils of the high street, this is sort of the unforeseen apparel of the new wave of commerce. something there were farmers living will have to happen. right, just in the centre of ibiza who have never been to the coast of ibiza. finally, the story that really it talks about the dadaists, the nazis, the bohemians, the various people that have been there during its history. it uses archive film clips matters. and cameo performances. and it centres, in the end, on this strange contradiction, on the telegraph, gravy with your which is that tourism and dance lemon drizzle cake. i wouldn't have culture has given life to ibiza, thought so. it is a really strange but it's also stripping ibiza of its identity and, story, i am thought so. it is a really strange story, iam not thought so. it is a really strange story, i am not entirely sure it indeed, its water supply. works stop i trust will be putting and i think what the film manages to do is it makes —

mashed potato used in its mixture and i keep saying a great documentary should make you know more about and more you interested in something about which you know for lemon drizzle cake. i am not nothing and you weren't sure if it is some kind of post interested in. and it does all of that. the thing withjulian temple, brexit reparation, getting us ready you know, you're never going to be bored. for the strange foods we will eat. he makes films that are thrilling and funny and cheeky and smart. i think ibiza: the silent movie it is very strange. presumably this is all of those things. was a headline writer desperate to i' m really, really looking forward to that. i'm not sure i'm looking forward try and think of something to say that got the gravy in on the act. to this week's re—release, sorry. but anyway... this is apparently because there has i know it makes me a philistine. been a surplus amount of mashed best film out — don't look now, potato ordered by some unfortunate which is the nic roeg film, which, incidentally, but imaginative buyer for the when it was first released in the cinemas in the early 1970s, national trust catering operation, went out on a double bill and this is what they have come up with. speaking personally, i can't in which the supporting feature was the wicker man. oh, how much i would say that this will be a reason to have loved that! propel me through the gates of a i think don't look now is just a stone—cold masterpiece. it's directed by nic roeg, it's adapted from a story by daphne national trust property, but we may du maurier, but the film have come across something very is absolutely a whole great here. and lemon drizzle cake in and of itself. it's terrifying, yes, it has a brilliant score obviously an essential part of a by pino donaggio, superb performances by donald sutherland visit to a national trust property. and julie christie, and it is a film about grief and loss. i believe it is compulsory. thank and it is impossible to ever look you both very much indeed for taking at a picture and walk around the streets of venice us you both very much indeed for taking us through tomorrow morning's front without hearing that pino donaggio score. pages. 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. and, yes, it's terrifying, but it's terrifying it's all there for you — seven days because it's about something. a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. you've seen don't look now. and if you miss the programme, you need to see... no, i am too scared! any evening, you can watch it later we've been through this! but it's ok! on bbc iplayer. again, it's not — it is a horror movie, but it's about so much thank you, tony grew more than horror. and caroline frost. it's about love and passion next on bbc news, and venice and death. and scary things. it's the film review. a quick final thought about dvds, streaming... hole in the ground. this is a horror movie. genuine horror movie. and what's really interesting about this was it's a strangely creepy horror movie about a mother and son flee off to a sort of woodland retreat where there is a hole in the ground, and this is a film which kind of relates to things like dark water, the hideo nakata film, or body snatchers. hello and welcome to and what i really liked the film review on bbc news. about it was i went into this thinking i've probably seen to take us through this all these riffs before, week's cinema is, as ever, and about ten minutes in, mark kermode. i was thinking, actually, this is creepy. and what have you been watching? ok, so we have midsommar, which i'm going to tell and it had that real kind of, you in advance is not a horrorfilm, it's ok. you know, cold hand on the back yeah, yeah, we can discuss that. of the neck feel. it has horror elements, there are certain little glimpses but not a horror film. of horror through it,

we have spider—man: far from home. so this, you should avoid, and ibiza: the silent movie, because this is a horrorfilm, ok. which isn't that silent. midsommar isn't. i hope not! 0k! i hearyou, i hearyou! thank you, mark...| think. you can see spider—man. thank god for spider—man. that's it. see you next time. yeah, yeah, i get it, i get it. bye— bye! last week was my first week back, so you were really nice to me, and now... ok, so here's the thing — midsommar is the new movie by ari aster, who made hereditary, which a lot of people say the weather on monday is not looking was the scariest thing they'd ever seen. bad at all for most of us. a lot of i have to say, i wasn't crazy about hereditary. i thought the first half of it was terrific and the second sunshine, in fact, bad at all for most of us. a lot of sunshine, infact, in bad at all for most of us. a lot of sunshine, in fact, in the forecast. half of it got silly. not everywhere. it looks as though northern ireland is in for some rain will, and through the early hours of the morning, clouding over across many western parts of the uk. but this is rather different, ok? 50, florence pugh, who is brilliant the vast majority of the country will have clear weather and some in everything she's in, is dani. she is riven with anxiety sunshine early on monday morning. so about a terrible tragedy that has here is the forecast for the morning befallen her family that we see at the very beginning of the film. itself. notice the bits and pieces jack reynor is her of rain getting into northern boyfriend, christian. she needs him for support, ireland. certainly by around about but what she doesn't know is that he has agreed with his lunchtime, early afternoon, there will be a little bit of damp weather friends that he is going to go off to sweden to a pagan midsummer there. maybe one or two showers festival, and she isn't thrilled across southern parts of the country when she finds out. as well. but on the whole the but she thinks she has to go along with it. weather is looking absolutely fine. here's a clip.

you said it would be cool to go. beautiful weather around the south coast, north sea coast as well, as yeah, and then i got the opportunity and i decided... well as northern scotland. look, i don't mind you going. ijust wish you would've temperature high teens are low 20s told me, that's all. about where they should be for the well, ijust apologised, dani. you didn't apologise, time of year. on tuesday, across the you said sorry, which sounds more like too bad. northern half of the uk, we will see maybe i should just go home. what? a little bit more cloud and some no, no, i'mjust outbreaks of rain. and that damp trying to understand. and i'm trying to apologise. weather will continue into wednesday as well. goodbye. and i don't need an apology. i don't, ijust wanted to talk about it, that's all. i really think i should just leave. no, no. please, please. please, i'm not trying to attack you. i'm not. it really feels like you are! well, then, i'm sorry! i'm sorry, ijust got confused. i'm sorry. hey, please come on. can you come and sit with me please? just stop. and we can talk about it? look, itjust felt really weird, ok? but i'm fine. i think it's great that you're going to sweden, i do. so you can see from that, it's a break—up movie,

it's a relationship movie. it's a movie about a couple having problems. welcome to newsday on the bbc. now, it begins in dark winter. i'm mariko oi in singapore. they then go to sweden the headlines: to the midsommar festival in which everything is bright three months on from the attacks and happy and everyone is wearing in new zealand, the bbc uncovers white dresses and headdresses. the shadowy online network the far all very beautiful. right uses to organise. jubilation for team usa as they win all very beautiful, and you know the women's football world cup because we've all seen the wicker man, that things are not for a record fourth time. going to go very well. but what's interesting i'm kasia madera in london. about it is this — also in the programme: it wears its wicker man influences on its sleeve. skirmishes on the but it also is absolutely streets of hong kong. about her and about her state police clash with protesters, of mind and about, weirdly, after a day of peaceful what happens at the midsommar demonstrations. festival is somehow that the past few hours, a group of 1000 becomes externalised. so, on the one hand, protesters have been blocking one of we know that this is something the main roads here, now the police which is dressed in the garb of a folk horror movie, have declared of which wicker man is kind of a high watermark. but there isn't in it anything like that terrible moment in wicker man in which edward woodward goes over the brough of the hill and suddenly realises what this is.

it's a much more gradual, slow—burn movie about a group of people, and about one person in the middle of it whose central relationship is falling apart, who is bearing with her a great grief about her family, who is brought into this festival in which everyone talks about families, everyone talks about the sisterhood, everyone talks about this is a great wonderful cycle of life and, indeed, death. and what i liked was whereas hereditary was very, very uneven, first half really, really traumatising, second half silly, this is much more of a character progression. it is about a character that we invest in, not least because florence pugh is brilliant, jack reynor is a really good actor, will poulter has a terrific supporting role. in fact, the entire ensemble cast are so good, that you completely you buy into their characters, and, therefore, you buy into the movie itself. and believe me — there was no—one who was more reserved about ari aster than i was because his short films, i thought, were great and his short films are very much about families and family conspiracies and family secrets, and i thought hereditary just kind of went off the boil. but this is much more a sustained character piece. and i promise you it's not a horror movie.

although that said... ijust don't believe you! i love will poulter, but i'm still too scared to go and see it! it's a will poulter film that happens to have some things in it that you might find in a horror movie, but it's not a horror movie. it is just a bit horrifying in places. i can watch spider—man, though, ‘cause that's not scary. after the events of the avengers movies, where do we go from here? answer. . . europe. so, peter parker — he wants to be a normal school kid. he wants to be able to tell mj that he loves her. but nick fury keeps ringing up, saying, "look, we've got problems, there are big monsters roaming around and we need you to team up with this guy" — jake gyllenhaal is very sort of slippery — "we need you to put on the spider—man costume and come and do the stuff because the world needs you." so, what's interesting about the film is it's quite playful. it's very funny, but it also has a kind of dark heart, because it exists in a world in which the question is — what do we all do now? where does it go from here? at the centre of it is — and i think this is one of the lovely things about it —

is somebody who doesn't want to be spider—man. they just want to be a normal school kid... i want to be normal! ..who wants to be able to tell mj that he's got a crush on her and wants to be able to just lead a normal life. so, it is fun? i thought it was fun, but i think it also has some darkness underneath it, which i think is important and also, i know that everybody who goes to see these movies will know this — stay till the very end because in this case, at the very end, there is notjust something that throws ahead to the future, but also something which refers back to what you've seen that you do need to stick around for. 0k. now, a new film from julian temple. yes, i'm a huge fan ofjulian temple. we think right back to the days of great rock—and—roll swindle, and then absolute beginners, which i think everyone went to see. yes, everyone of our age went to see that! he has made some brilliant documentaries. made a great documentary about doctor feelgood and about wilko johnson. so now, ibiza: the silent movie, which is obviously ironically titled. so it is a film about ibiza and about dance culture

and about the history of ibiza and the history of dance culture. the music is curated by fatboy slim, because, asjulian temple himself said, he's not a dance culture fan. but what he's done is he's used the format of silent movies. so, silent movies were never silent, they always had music. but what they didn't have was dialogue. so, ibiza: the silent movie has music all the way through, but it uses intertitles. so we see stuff on screen that serves the same purpose as it would've done in a silent movie, and it basically traces back the history of the island, the history of the culture and tells us at the beginning — don't believe everything you see in this documentary, but also does a very good job of saying this is where we are and there is both good and bad involved in that. let's look have a look at the clip. 00:09:38,596 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 funk music plays.
